Gesture Flow is a rhythm game you play on a pad controller. The pads light up on the beat of real dance music, and you tap, swipe or hold each one right as its ring closes. Hit the beat and your streak grows. Keep it going and the track builds until the music drops and the whole controller lights up. Miss the beat and your streak starts over. Leave the pads with a red X alone and let them pass. TWO WAYS TO PLAY - Endless Mode: you have three hearts and the pads come faster and faster. See how long you can last. - Zen Mode: no hearts and no way to lose. Just play along to the music. The first time you play, a hand shows you each move right on the pad. A NEW CHALLENGE EVERY DAY There's a new goal every day, and finishing it earns you coins. MAKE IT YOURS Spend the coins you earn on new controllers, from walnut and chrome to clear acrylic and gold, each with its own pads, and on new rooms to play in, like a rooftop at sunset, an aquarium club or a space station. PLAY ON APPLE TV Gesture Flow also plays on Apple TV with the Siri Remote: click, swipe and hold on the remote's touch surface. Get it once and it's on your iPhone, iPad and Apple TV. ALSO - A leaderboard and achievements in Game Center - Stickers for Messages - Timing calibration for headphones and TV speakers - Separate switches for music, sound effects and haptics - No account needed, and it plays offline ADS AND PURCHASES Gesture Flow is free with ads. You'll sometimes see an ad between runs, never during one. Video ads only play when you choose one: to keep going after your last heart, or to double the coins from a run. Remove Ads is a one-time purchase. Coin packs are optional: everything you can unlock can be earned by playing.
