About

Pincle

Read full description

Pincle is a minimalist precision game with one simple rule: tap to shoot a pin into a spinning circle - but never hit the ones already there. Sounds easy. It's not. ---- HOW TO PLAY ---- Tap anywhere on the screen to launch a pin toward the rotating circle. Land it without hitting existing pins to score. Fill the circle to advance to the next level. Miss and you lose a life. ---- GAME MODES ---- - Classic - Progress through increasingly difficult levels. How far can you go? - Endless - One life, infinite pins. No levels, no limits. Pure survival. - Time Attack - 30 seconds on the clock. Plant as many pins as possible before time runs out. - Daily Challenge - A unique configuration every day, the same for everyone worldwide. Come back daily and climb the leaderboard. ---- POWER-UPS ---- Collect special pins that appear on the circle as you play: Extra Life — Gain an additional life, stackable beyond the starting amount Slow — The circle slows down for 8 seconds, giving you a chance to breathe Halve — Removes half the placed pins, freeing up space for more ---- FEATURES ---- - 3 difficulty levels: Easy, Normal, Hard - each with different pin gaps, speeds, and life counts - Frenzy mode: chain 10 consecutive hits to trigger a speed boost and score multiplier - Game Center leaderboards and achievements - Haptic feedback tuned for every action - Animated starfield background, glow effects, pin trail - No ads.
