Watch the ruby. Remember the pattern. Play it back. RubyRepeat is a pure memory game played on a gleaming eight-facet gem. The board lights up one facet at a time and plays its tone — then it's your turn to repeat the sequence. Every level adds a note and picks up speed. One wrong tap, or one moment of hesitation too long, and it's game over. Simple to learn. Genuinely hard to master. TWO WAYS TO PLAY • Classic — the ruby in deep faceted reds, the way a gem should look • Color — every facet gets its own vivid hue for an extra visual anchor Switch modes mid-game without losing your score, level, or sequence. SHARP, SATISFYING PLAY • Eight facets, eight tones — sound and light reinforce your memory • Precise touch targets shaped exactly like the facets you see • Sequences grow from 4 notes to 20 as the pace quickens • Score climbs faster at higher levels: every correct tap is worth more CLEAN AND FOCUSED • Free, with no ads, no in-app purchases, and no account required • Nothing tracks you — your sound preference is the only thing saved • Check the global top 25 right in the app, and submit your best runs if you choose • Designed for iPhone and iPad How long a pattern can you hold in your head — 8 notes? 12? 20? There's one way to find out.

Helmet: CHECK! Jumpsuit: CHECK! Parachute...ummm WOOPS! Find hidden objects, complete missions, by slamming into them at ridiculous speeds! This ain't no wussy stuntman's gig. It's the "Where's Waldo" of extreme sports. Strap on your gear and take an adrenaline-pumped sky dive. Zoom toward the ground at 125 mph, using your eagle eyes to hunt for targets scattered across the map. Zero in, then SLAM into your target to win coins and unlock new maps. Unless you miss...SPLAT!!! Smash all the targets: * Ice cream trucks * Park benches * Fire hydrants * Tree branches Go for a mega bonus, and crush the ever-elusive Gnome (one on every map)! Feel the need for that extra rush? Grab some adrenaline boosts: dive even faster and smash even harder. Reminiscent of the crazy stuntmen of yesteryear, Death Drop is the most extreme scavenger hunt you'll ever play!
