About

Squish

Features
Read full description

Drag. Catch. Dodge. The one-touch arcade game where a cute animal at the bottom of the screen catches falling snacks — and dodges rocks, bombs, and cactuses that fall alongside. Slide your finger left and right to move your character. Catch the good stuff for points and chain multipliers. Hit a hazard and your character gets hurt. Three hits and it's game over. Clear each level by catching enough snacks to unlock the next animal. Ten levels, ten characters: Chick → Rabbit → Frog → Duck → Pig → Owl → Sloth → Penguin → Panda → Bear. Each level speeds up the falling items and mixes in more hazards to dodge. WHAT'S FALLING • Snacks to catch: candy, apple, cherry, banana, grape, donut (rare) • Hazards to dodge: rock, cactus, bomb (rare) FEATURES • One-touch drag controls — pick up in 5 seconds • 10 escalating difficulty levels • 10 unlockable animal characters • Chain multipliers at 3, 6, and 10 catches in a row • 6 unlockable color themes — Classic, Midnight, Sunset, Forest, Neon, Mono • Daily challenge with 30-day streak tracking • Free revive when you complete the daily • Play offline anytime • No forced ads — rewarded ads only when you want a second chance • Game Center leaderboards for high score and best chain
