Draw, claim, survive. CapiX is a fast arcade game inspired by the classics: leave the safe border, draw a line across the board and close it to claim the territory — before the capybara touches your trail. • Claim the target percentage to clear each level • Dodge the sparx racing along the border • Trap a capybara in a small area to squash it • Every 8 levels another capybara joins the hunt MODES • 1 Player — the classic climb, level after level • Time Attack — reach 60% before the clock runs out; the clock gets shorter every level • 2P Co-op — team up on the same device and share the score • 2P Versus — race a friend for the most territory • Online — play co-op or versus with a friend on another device through Game Center: invite a friend or get matched with a random player COLLECT & CUSTOMISE Earn CapiCash every level and spend it in the Shop on hundreds of skins for your orange, the capybara and the sparx — from Common to Legendary, plus Special skins you can only earn by reaching goals. The rarest ones are animated. Then open the Editor to mix skins and pick the colours of the border, the fill and your trail. SEASONAL EVENTS Special events change the look and music of the game for a few weeks, with limited-time skins you keep forever. Every October: Halloween!
