## What is TraceLine!?

One line. One finger. Don't lift, don't cross.

TraceLine is a game of nerve and planning. Press your finger to the screen and a line follows it. Fill enough of the board before the clock runs out - but the moment you lift your finger, the round is over. Cross your own line, and it's over too.

Every level is a race against your own path. The more you draw, the less room you leave yourself. Plan too little and you strand yourself in a corner with nowhere legal to go.

Five worlds, each taking away something you relied on. Magnets bend your line off course. Fuses set it alight and send a flame racing down it - reach a shelter first. The lights go out and you draw by a torch on your fingertip. And hunters lock onto your line and close in, so you can't just dodge - you have to lose them.

Collect glowing pips for bonus points along the way, and grab a shield to deflect the next hit.

## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.3 — 2026-07-31

The biggest update yet - four new worlds and a lot more game.

FOUR NEW WORLDS, 40 new levels:
THE FIELD - magnets bend your line off course.
THE BURN - race a flame down your own trail to a shelter.
THE DARK - the board goes black; you draw by a torch on your fingertip.
THE HUNT - hazards lock onto your line and chase you down.

Also new:
Collect glowing pips for bonus points, and grab power-ups - a shield to deflect the next hit, a freeze to stop the clock, a ghost to slip through anything.
Endless mode and Free Play.
Sound, real neon glow, a rebuilt difficulty curve, and a fresh look throughout.

Still one finger. Still no ads, no purchases, no account. Still don't lift.
