## What is Tether Arcade?

Tether is a one-touch arcade game. No account, no sign-in, no in-app purchases and no ads. It works fully offline.

HOW TO PLAY
Hold anywhere to hook the nearest anchor and swing around it. Release to fly off along the tangent, then hold again to catch the next one. There is no brake and no undo - just how far you get before the wipeout.

SKIM THE SAWS
Saws sit between the anchors. Cutting close to one without touching it stacks your multiplier, so the tighter your line, the faster the score climbs. Play it safe and you score slowly. Play it greedy and you score fast.

DAY STREAK
Come back on consecutive days and your streak raises the score floor you start every run from.

SKINS
New looks unlock as your best score climbs, from the first at 60 all the way to 1500.

SHARE
Every run ends with a card of your score, ready to share.

LANGUAGES
The game reads the device language at launch and shows its text in whichever of its thirteen supported languages matches: English, Chinese, Hindi, Spanish, Arabic, French, Bengali, Portuguese, German, Japanese, Korean, Italian and Thai. Any other language falls back to English.

## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.2.0 — 2026-09-23

Internal performance and stability improvements. This version adds anonymous usage measurement so I can tell how many people play; it collects no scores and no personal data.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-09-19

Tether now shows a full-screen ad between runs - never during one, and not while you are finding your feet.

Don't want them? Tether Pro removes every ad for good with a single payment. No subscription. Restore it any time from the game over screen if you change device.

### 1.0 — 2026-09-15

No release notes.
