ELECTROPUCK — pure neon physics in the palm of your hand. Drag out from the cannon toward your target, line up your shot, and fire a glowing puck across the arena. But this is no ordinary launch: every puck carries an electric charge, and the field between them bends your shot in real time. Opposite charges pull together, like charges shove apart, and a great player reads the field before letting go. Land your pucks to build the board, chain bounces to grow your multiplier, and cash it all in — just don't let a weak shot die in the dead zone, or it'll cost you. CORE LOOP • Aim toward your target — the harder you pull, the harder it flies • Watch charges curve your puck through the electrostatic field • Bounce to build your multiplier, then clear pucks to score it • Survive on three pucks — waste them and it's game over SPECIAL PUCKS • Black holes that devour everything they touch — and grow as they feed • Inverters that flip charges across the board • Splitters that burst into a pair of fresh pucks MUTATORS (optional Mutator Pack) Remix the rules with stackable modifiers: • Fast Pucks — launch at double speed • Hungry Black Holes — holes grow three times as fast • High Friction — shots stop short • Strong Fields — charges pull twice as hard Mix and match for a wilder run. (Mutator games are just for fun — they don't count toward the leaderboard.) GAME CENTER • Climb the all-time global leaderboard • Unlock achievements for monster multipliers Fully procedural neon audio and crisp haptics. Plays in portrait on iPhone, any orientation on iPad. Free to play. No ads, ever. One optional one-time unlock — that's it. Take aim. Trust the field. Chase the perfect shot.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: ElectroPuck at none against Ascension's shown. ElectroPuck also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 19 months). Ascension's advantage is iOS requirement (11.0 vs 18.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
