A new take on Bix Challenge, the line-drawing arcade classic in the spirit of Qix, Xonix and JezzBall. Draw lines to cut the field, fill it with light and trap the bouncing balls. One rule to master: when you close a line, the side with fewer balls fills up. Easy to learn, fiendishly hard to master. WHAT'S INSIDE • 100 levels across 10 galaxies, each with its own twist: ball traps, line limits, dark zones, time trials, giant balls, ice walls and hunters • The Rift: beat level 100 and a hidden climb opens. How high can you go? • Three stars to earn on every level, chests to open, gold balls to collect • Boosters when you need a hand: Slow start and Shield • Glowing visuals made for today's iPhone and iPad • The original soundtrack, now opening up as you fill the field • Your progress is saved in iCloud and follows you to your other devices • Plays offline THE ORIGINAL, STILL HERE Bix Challenge has been played by over a million people since 2008, reaching #2 in France, #3 in Germany and #4 in the UK. The classic version is still in the app, exactly as you remember it: turn on "Classic version" in Settings.

This is a lite version of Eyestorm, a modernized version of Jezzball with a story and lots of twists! You fight the evil Dr. Eyequeue's fearsome eyes before they take control of the world. Your journey will take you through 12 levels of adrenaline packed action and fun! To advance you must fill a large portion of each level by building blocks by swiping on your screen without getting hit by one of the many enemies. The game adds many unique new elements to Jezzball, Styx, and Xonix like games such as power-ups, bosses, and puzzles. Some Eyes bounce like balls from Jezzball. Some bounce randomly or in patterns. Some spew out other eyes.... and then there are the UFOs. If all of that wasn't enough, you can compete against your friends to see who can get the highest score and if you can make it to the weekly or even all-time high score lists. Good luck! Features: - 28 unique levels + 1 secret - Absorbing and fast-paced gameplay - 5 different enemies - Ultra smooth graphics - Power-ups - Autosave and resume games - Adrenaline pumping soundtrack and effects - Play iPod-music while playing If you like Eyestorm be sure to check out the full version of Eyestorm with many more levels and eyes to battle with. ------------------------ Reviews: ------------------------ iPhone footprint: "Eyestorm brings exciting JezzBall game fun to the App Store." iPhone Games Network: "... a fun, unique, and extremely challenging JezzBall experience" ------------------------
