## What is Pinch Patrol?

You are one furious little crab, and the sea behind you is YOUR sea.

Bottles, cans, empty bags, flip-flops and burst beach balls come rolling down the
sand towards the water. Drag left and right to skitter along the tide line and snap
your claws to punt the rubbish back up the beach before it reaches the waves.

But watch what you're whacking. Baby turtles, little fish, shells, starfish and the
odd octopus are just trying to get home — let them past. Block one and you lose your
combo and 10 points per sea creature knocked back up the beach.

WHAT YOU GET
- Direct drag controls in portrait or landscape. No joystick, no clutter.
- A snappy claw animation and a satisfying pinch on every block.
- Chain blocks together for combo bonuses and a rising score.
- Gentle wave ambience for a proper seaside feeling.
- Difficulty that builds smoothly: slow rubbish first, then more types and more speed
  as you improve. Never an impossible pattern.
- Challenge your friends to beat your high score in Game Centre.
- Plays completely offline. No signal needed, anywhere — on a plane, on the Tube,
  down the beach.

No accounts. No ads. No in-app purchases. No data collected. Just you, your claws,
and a beach that will not stay clean.

Protect the sea. Pinch says no.
