Available for free: 4 levels of the game and 10 attempts per day in Brawl mode. The full version can be unlocked with one payment in the game. *Supported Devices: iPhone 8 Plus, Apple iPad Pro 12.9 (2015) and above. iPod Touches are not supported. Let's play a game: I'll give you some puny humans, and you try to help them make it through my labyrinth. No, you won't be controlling them in battles - they'll fight automatically! My game is about strategy and praying to RNGesus, not mashing buttons. You can buy items for the humans: swords, crossbows, coffins, stale pretzels. Plus, I'll let you give them cool mutations! A few Topochlorians in the blood and some Crocodile Skin never hurt anyone. There's one catch, though: if you die, you have to start over entirely, and the whole world will be generated again from scratch. Yes, my game is a roguelike game. Well, roguelite, if you're a nerd who loves compartmentalizing us creators into strict genres. I almost forgot: my game has a multiplayer mode, too! But I'm not going to tell you anything about it, because King of the Hill is a special secret multiplayer mode that only unlocks once you beat the game. * sincerely, with disrespect for puny humans, your local evil AI: d'Spot
Cube Clasher
Read full descriptionHide full description
Cube Clasher is a turn-based block puzzle battle. You and the AI share one 8x8 board — place your blocks, fill rows or columns to clear them, and outscore your opponent before the board runs out of space. A LIVING AI OPPONENT This is not a static puzzle bot. The AI reads the battle and switches personality as the score swings: • Falling behind? It turns greedy and chases every line. • Ahead of you? It becomes a ruthless blocker, denying the lines you built. • Board almost full? It fights for survival. Every match plays out differently because your opponent adapts to you. SIMPLE TO PLAY, HARD TO MASTER • Drag blocks onto the board — fill a row or column to clear it and score. • Tap a block to rotate it. Rotations are limited; spend them wisely. • Clear multiple lines at once for combo multipliers and big points. • When no block fits, the battle ends — highest score wins. GLOBAL LEADERBOARD Set a new personal record and enter your 3-letter arcade tag. Climb the worldwide rankings — no account needed. FEATURES • One-on-one battles against an adaptive AI • Combo system with escalating multipliers • Rotate skill with limited charges — a real tactical resource • Global leaderboard with arcade-style initials • Haptic feedback, retro-inspired visuals • Playable in English, Traditional Chinese, and Japanese Developed by Takoruvid Games, a game label of Takoruvid Interactive AB.
