About

Slicesism

Features
Read full description

Sliceism is a one-thumb territory arcade game. Fire walls across a field of bouncing hazards, seal off the empty space, and claim the grid. Simple to start, ruthless to master. HOW IT PLAYS Press, drag, release — that's the whole game. Aim a straight cut and it grows in two directions until it locks into a wall. Seal a region with no hazards inside and it becomes yours. Claim enough of the board to clear the level, then do it again as the field fills with faster, stranger enemies. THE TRACE CUT Draw your own path along any wall and the cut follows your line — worth TRIPLE points. But it builds slowly, and the entire trace shatters if anything so much as grazes it. Greed is the game: take the safe little cut, or risk the huge claim? TWO WAYS TO PLAY - Ascent: endless levels, climbing difficulty, one long score chase. - Daily Slice: the same board for every player, every day. One scored run, unlimited practice, and a streak to defend. SIX HAZARDS, ONE RULE — DON'T STALL - Orb: the classic bouncer. - Splitter: divides in two when you wall it in. - Brute: takes down your whole cut, and smashes through finished walls. - Ghost: drifts through growing walls, then phases through solid ones. - Magnet: bends toward your wall as it builds. - Patroller: wait too long and it crawls along your walls, erasing your territory. Claim, or be eroded. SCORE LIKE A PRO Chain your captures for escalating multipliers. Trap hazards into separate pockets with a single cut. Graze a wall at the last possible instant. Squeeze enemies into a corner for a compression bonus. Your score isn't about whether you win — it's about how you claim. BUILT FOR YOUR THUMB - Portrait, one hand, 60-90 second levels. - Crisp, minimalist geometric art. - Tactile haptics and sound you can feel. - Plays fully offline. No account required. - No forced ads, ever. Slice, claim, survive.
