Fly into a dreamy garden sky and help a tiny dragon defend its magical world! Move your dragon left and right, launch glowing fireballs, and blast falling apples before they reach the ground or collide with your dragon. Every successful hit increases your score, but the challenge grows as you advance. Play through eight increasingly difficult levels. Apples fall faster, appear more frequently, and become harder to stop. Your dragon’s fireballs also become faster, allowing you to keep up with the action. Be careful—when an apple hits the dragon, the dragon shrinks and loses energy. In later levels, apples that fall past you also drain the dragon’s energy. Keep shooting, protect your energy, and see how far you can go. Features: • Eight progressively challenging levels • Simple touch and drag controls • Fast magical fireball shooting • Increasing apple speed and spawn rate • Dragon energy system • Dragon shrinking effects after collisions • Score tracking • Pause, resume, restart, and play-again controls • Colorful fantasy artwork and sound effects • Responsive gameplay for different iPhone and iPad screen sizes Can you protect the garden sky and reach Level 8?
