■ Enjoy with one finger. A 3D physics game where you can play by the rules of Mölkky, the sport born in Finland. Just swipe the screen to throw. Direction, power, arc, and left-right drift are all determined by your finger movement. The rules are simple, but once you start aiming, the game becomes surprisingly deep. Enjoy the fun of Mölkky with ease. ■ 3D physics simulation The stick rotation, pin falls, and chain reactions between pins are recreated with 3D physics. A throw that barely tips a pin, a throw that cuts into a tight cluster, or a throw that misses by a hair. Every round creates a different moment. ■ Four match modes ・Random Match — play online against players far away ・Friend Match — share a passphrase and play with friends ・Local Match — pass one iPhone around for 2 to 4 players ・CPU Match — practice or compete solo across 3 difficulty levels ■ Collect My Stick skins Unlock a variety of stick skins, including wood, solid colors, stripes, checks, metal, rainbow, aurora, galaxy, neon, sakura, and more.
