Steer a little white cube around a floating island and keep away from the angry red blocks. Drag anywhere on the screen to move him and tap to hop over the low ones. Your score is how long you last. The blocks slide in from the edges, and a blinking arrow shows where each one will come in. The longer you last, the faster they come, and new kinds show up: tall ones you can't hop over, ones that tumble end over end, whole rows with a single gap, giant ones, and some that drop out of the sky onto the spot where you're standing. Coins pop up around the island as you play. Grab them, and let a block brush right past you for a bonus. Power-ups float in bubbles now and then: a shield that takes one hit for you, a magnet that pulls coins in, slow motion, a star that lets you smash straight through blocks, and one that shrinks you down to slip through gaps. Spend your coins in the shop on costumes and new places to play. He can dress up as a pirate, an astronaut, a slice of toast, a robot and a lot more, and each costume has its own little animations and sounds. You can also move the island to a beach, a candy land, a snowy mountain or outer space, each with its own scenery to look at. Every day there are new challenges that pay extra coins if you finish them. If a block catches you, you can keep going once per run by watching a short video or spending some coins. Your best time goes on a Game Center leaderboard, and there are achievements to earn along the way. You can also share a picture of your time with a friend. It works on iPhone and iPad, plays offline, and doesn't need an account. Arrow keys or WASD and the space bar work if you have a keyboard. The game is free with ads. Videos only play when you choose to watch one, to keep going or to double the coins from a run, and an occasional ad shows between runs, never during one. A one-time purchase removes the ads between runs. Coin packs are there if you want them, but everything in the shop can be earned by playing.
