Embark on a magical journey to save the forest from an ancient evil in this challenging auto-runner adventure. An ancient demon has risen and his vicious powers plagues the world. Forest spirits have awoken an archer from the past to save the day! The demon is always one step ahead and leaves a never ending trail of rock hard shards. You'll never know which shapes or forms you’ll meet next! Destroy or avoid them and you will hunt him down. In “A Kindling Forest” you play as our hero aided by forest spirits. Aim and shoot your way through five levels in this cute, average auto-runner. Beware! The arrows you collect along the way ARE the forest spirits. Use them wisely, they are your life count as well. Run out of arrows and you will perish. Use checkpoints to start over if you’ve learned a more efficient way to get through the various obstacles to pass. How to play: Your phone is divided into two areas. Jump and shoot by touching the screen. Get past the shards by aiming for their weak points in this fast-paced adventure! Grow new paths, teleport to new places, fly over clouds, jump over spiders, go through ruins, lava and so much more!

About

The Sky Walker

Read full description

How far can you walk before the wind takes you down? SKY WALKER is a nerve-shredding tightrope balancing game. One rope, no net. Lean too far and you fall. Find your rhythm, fight the gusts and push for one more meter. Play offline, anywhere: no wifi needed. EASY TO PLAY, BRUTAL TO MASTER Tap WALK to step forward and hold the left or right side of the screen to keep your balance. That's it. The challenge is staying calm when the wind starts to howl. BRACE FOR THE WIND • CALM – learn the ropes • BREEZE – the first gentle push • GUSTS – timing starts to matter • STORM – hold your nerve • HURRICANE – pure chaos …then ENDLESS mode, where it never stops getting harder. 4 WORLDS, ONE ROPE Start above a neon City, then walk farther to unlock the Canyon, the snowy Peaks and the Ocean. Watch out for pigeons, drones and slippery wet ropes. CHOOSE YOUR ROPE When the rope splits, hold a side to pick your path: play it safe on the CALM rope or go RISKY for more coins. NEON OR INK Glowing neon nights or hand-drawn ink on paper. Switch styles any time in Settings. A NEW CHALLENGE EVERY DAY The Daily Challenge gives everyone the same run, with its own TODAY leaderboard. Three new missions every day pay out extra coins. GEAR UP Spend coins in the shop: a long pole for stability, a carbon pole for quick reactions, an umbrella against the wind, grip gloves for an extra last-chance grab, and outfits to make your walker your own. CHASE THE RECORD Every run is scored by distance. Pass your rivals as you walk, beat your best and climb the ALL-TIME and TODAY global leaderboards. Then share your best fall with friends. FEATURES • Simple touch controls, instant pick-up-and-play • Escalating wind from Calm to Hurricane, plus Endless mode • 4 worlds: City, Canyon, Peaks and Ocean • Two art styles: Neon and Ink • Daily Challenge and 3 new missions every day • Shop with poles, gear and outfits • Global all-time and daily leaderboards • Immersive 3D, reactive sound and haptics • Plays offline, no wifi needed • Free to play Think you can keep your balance?
