## What is Downpour?

Downpour is the best way to make games on your phone. Collage together photos, drawings and text, and then connect them together into a branching story. It's genuinely quick and easy to use — you can make a game before your tea has gotten cold.

Once you've made a game with Downpour, what then? You can share it within the app, allowing other people to play games and follow you, or you can share the link and anyone can play.

### 5/5 — :)

*2026-04-25, version 1.1.9*

I love the creativity of this app but if it had animation like alight motion it would be super cool.

### 5/5 — Amazing game! Could be better.

*2026-04-23, version 1.1.9*

Absolute cinema. But there is a few things it could improve on. Maybe add sounds that are triggered, either exported from your camera roll or recorded? This is literally the only thing I had to say lol. Just wanted to make sure this was considered! Amazing game!

A really immediate and intuitive tool for turning photos — that live on our phones already — into small interactive sequences, experiences.
