AperoDrop
Read full descriptionHide full description
Catch what falls — and let the summer carry you. Apero Drop is a laid-back skill game with a retro poster look. Your glass follows your finger while orange slices, ice cubes and bottles rain down from above. Catching scores points, wasps cost you a life. A round takes a couple of minutes — perfect for the bus stop, your lunch break or the end of the day. And our song plays while you do it. HOW TO PLAY • One finger is all it takes. The glass follows you, you catch what falls. • Combos up to x5: five clean catches in a row bump the multiplier one step. • Double points: a golden bottle doubles every hit for five seconds. • Avoid the wasps: each one costs a life. Missed ingredients cost points and your combo. • It speeds up: every few seconds the pace picks up and more comes down. LAST CHANCE When you run out of lives, you get one second chance per round. The seven of spades is shown briefly, then turned face down and shuffled. Find it again and you play straight on. KEEP COMING BACK • Daily streak: play every day and watch your streak grow. • Freeze: miss a single day without losing everything. • Global leaderboard: this week's scores, all-time scores — and the longest streaks. • Widgets: your high score and streak on the home and lock screen. • Sharing: your result as a ready-made card straight into your Instagram story. THE STORY BEHIND IT Apero Drop is a passion project by the Luxembourgish band Schëppe Siwen and Daumedia — a game built around our joint single. The track plays while you play, and at the end of every round one tap takes you to Spotify. The app speaks German, French, English, Luxembourgish and Portuguese. No ads. No in-app purchases. Playable as a guest, no account needed. Questions or feedback: support@daumedia.lu
