Drop a ball. Time it perfectly. Do it a thousand times, and never the same way twice. Precision Drop is a physics arcade game about one thing done well: the moment you release. Every level is hand-built, every level is identical for every player, and every level is racing a clock that does not care how close you got. ONE THOUSAND LEVELS, TWENTY CHAPTERS Climb from the Launch Pad to the Event Horizon through 20 named chapters of 1,000 levels. Difficulty builds honestly — the early chapters teach you the bounce, the late ones ask whether you learned it. Every player everywhere gets exactly the same 1,000 levels, so a time posted in Osaka means the same thing as a time posted in Ohio. GOLD, SILVER, BRONZE Every level carries three time targets. Finishing is easy. Taking gold is not. Your best time on each level is yours to beat, and everybody else's. TWENTY-TWO BALL SKINS, TWENTY-TWO POWERS Each skin is a different ability, not a different colour. Launch meteors, drop a low-gravity field, chain lightning between obstacles, phase straight through them, freeze what is ahead of you, build a platform where there was none. Skins unlock as you climb, or with Drops. CHAIN COMBOS Three bounces on one platform type fires a power. Perfect Form, Magnetic Storm, Time Bubble, Golden Hour, Sky Surge, Velocity Rush — learn which platforms are worth stringing together and the clock starts working for you. LAND IT PERFECT Land dead centre and the game says so. Three perfects in a row buys you a second back. Ten in a row buys two. Twenty in a row buys ten. A streak is the difference between finishing and taking gold. SIXTEEN WAYS TO DIE Black holes, supernovas, gravity wells, drifting asteroids, and a tentacle that reaches out of a rift and feels for your ball. Read the level, or lose it. POWER-UPS WORTH CARRYING Offensive clears the nearest obstacle. Defensive raises a three-second shield. Special fires your skin's ability. Life buys you another try. Raise how many you can carry, and keep them between levels. SEVENTY LEADERBOARDS Game Center boards for progression and for speed runs, plus a per-level record for every level you have finished. Compare against friends or against the world. BUILT TO BE PLAYED ANYWHERE Playable in 34 languages, chosen in-game rather than only in Settings. Portrait or landscape, iPhone or iPad. Reduce Motion is respected throughout. AN ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK Twenty original tracks written for this game, not licensed stock. Free to play, with optional Drops for upgrades and skins, an ad-free purchase, and a starter pack. Nothing behind the 1,000 levels is locked.
