Flip two cards. Remember what you saw. Clear the board — then keep going, because the board is only the beginning. Twinvale is the card-matching game you already know, rebuilt into a full adventure. Explore a hand-painted town, climb 60 levels across 9 chapters, beat the bosses guarding each one, and come back wearing the gear they drop. A WORLD, NOT A MENU Your home screen is a painted map. The castle holds the campaign, the arena holds the Challenges, the gear shop sells what you have not earned yet, and the trailhead leads out to Expedition. New buildings open as you play. SIX WAYS TO PLAY - Levels — 60 boards across 9 chapters, with hazards, mini-bosses and bosses - Challenges — 24 boards in four families: Precision, Target Trail, Hot Streak and Limited Looks - Expedition — an endless run with three lives, escalating modifiers and camp supplies - Blitz — one clock, as many boards as you can clear - Daily Journey — a new board every day, the same board for everyone, on a seven-day calendar - Zen — no clock, no fail state, no systems. Just cards. GEAR THAT CHANGES THE BOARD Beat a boss, take its gear. Five slots — weapon, boots, armor, hat and orb — filled from 42 pieces, and each one changes how a board opens rather than how it looks: a free look at a card, seconds back on your first matches, mistake shields banked before the first flip, a wider step budget. ELEMENT FUSION Special Pairs drop Water, Fire, Wood, Light and Dark into a three-slot tray. Two ingredients make a fusion, three make an Overcharge, and three of a kind make a Perfect Resonance. Three Dark makes an Eclipse that clears the stage outright — at the cost of everything still unmatched on it. COLLECT, COMPETE, COMPLETE - 72 cosmetics — card backs, card faces, board backgrounds and icon packs across five rarity tiers. Legendaries carry their own animation and their own sounds - A Diamond Shop for cosmetics and power-up bundles. Earn diamonds by playing, or pick up a pack when you want something sooner - 62 trophies and 5 Game Center leaderboards: total stars, boards cleared, Expedition depth, Blitz depth and longest chain - A 28-day Daily Ritual that pays out in cosmetics - Nine seasonal events through the year - A second playthrough that re-tunes every board once you finish the first BUILT TO BE PLAYED ANYWHERE No connection needed — every mode works offline. Sized for both iPhone and iPad. Card states and actions are labelled for VoiceOver, controls keep a large tap target, and a Reduced Motion setting replaces every animation with a still frame without changing a single rule. Play in English, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, Hindi, French or Spanish. Free to play, with optional diamond packs and a one-time Remove Ads purchase. Whether you have one minute or a whole evening, every match still lands.
