Shapes fall. Shift them into the matching color before they shatter. Faster and faster. Shift and Shatter is a quick-paced color matching arcade game with six modes, each in a different retro arcade style. Drag each shape into the goal of the same color, keep up as the pace climbs, and beat your high score. Some modes add bombs, moving walls, corner goals or several shapes at once, so every mode asks something different of your reflexes. Short rounds, instant restarts, no connection required. SIX MODES • Standard: match colors as fast as you can • Multi Match: several shapes drop at once • Four Corners: a goal in every corner • Avoid the Bombs: one wrong move ends the run • Avoid the Walls: the walls are in the way • All Together Now: everything at once FEATURES • Fast drag-and-drop color sorting built for touch • Six distinct modes, each with its own retro look • Difficulty ramps every round • Game Center leaderboard for each mode • Offline single player, saved high scores, no account needed REMOVE ADS Free to play with a small banner ad.
