Do you remember classic games like Qix, JezzBall, Styx, or Xonix? Or maybe you're a fan of arcade games that require a strategic approach? If so, you've come to the right place. During the game the player controls the spider. On each level the goal is to create a sufficiently large spider web. However, this task is not easy because the hungry snake is just waiting for an opportunity to eat the spider. The game offers an infinite number of increasingly challenging levels, allowing you to enjoy hours of gameplay. A global leaderboard lets you compare your scores with friends. You can also join forces in two-player mode and play on one device, working as a team to defeat the snake that stands in your way.

Here is Denmark’s most popular board game as an app! The app is based on the tactical board game Partners, where you play 2 vs 2. The game can best be described as a new take on Ludo with cards, and the goal is to be the team of partners that first gets all their pieces home. It’s all about teamwork and strategic thinking – it’s not enough to focus only on your own pieces! The app offers many possibilities that you don’t normally have in the physical board game. First of all, players don’t need to be in the same place – you can play with people from all over the world. You also don’t have to be exactly four players as in the board game. In the app you can play with 1, 2 or 3 other players online, or alternatively play with and against built-in bots whose skills range from very easy to extremely challenging. And just like in real life, there is of course also a completely unpredictable bot in the app that plays like a true wildcard…! You can also choose to play offline in single mode with a robot partner against robot opponents. In this app, you decide everything yourself – the choices are yours! You can play live online or with up to 48 hours per move, and you can easily have many games running at the same time if you can keep track (: ***Warning: This game, just like the board game version, is HIGHLY addictive and can steal a lot of your time.*** Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
