About

TapStepAway

Features
Read full description

This is a very simple game: use your fingers to move forward on the screen. Push to move, hold your finger and slide it forward to slow down. There are three game modes, try them all (select on the start screen). It's cold outside, a snow storm is catching up with you. The faster you go - the less chance you have to freeze. If you collect some coins - you can warm up by drinking a hot drink where it is sold. You can choose the number of frames per second on the main screen (if the game does not work very well on your device - choose 30 FPS).
