Read full description

The maze-chase where you drop the walls. Gloopfall is a maze chase with falling blocks. You steer Gloop, a hungry one-eyed slime, through a maze full of pellets. Spiky Mites hunt you the whole time. Blocks keep falling into the maze, and you decide where each one lands. When a block lands, it becomes a wall. Use it to cut off a chaser, open an escape route, or seal a Mite into a pocket for good. TWO GAMES, ONE BOARD • Steer Gloop with the d-pad and eat pellets. • Move, rotate and drop the falling block with the buttons. • Every block you place changes the chase. OUTSMART THE MITES • Pip heads straight for you. Dash cuts you off from the front. Mo wanders, then turns on you. Grit hunts where your block is about to land. • Wall a Mite into a sealed pocket to trap it. • Grab a power pellet to turn the tables. Gobble dizzy Mites and ooze right through blocks. • Fill a row to clear it and make room. ONE MORE LEVEL • The level ladder never ends. Every level is built from its number, so it plays the same for everyone. • Levels are short, 1 to 3 minutes. Each one is a little harder than the last. • New Mites, twists and block worlds show up as you climb: Arcade, Handheld, Neon and Sunset. A NEW MAZE EVERY DAY • The Daily Maze gives everyone the same board and the same blocks. • Your first run of the day is scored. Keep your streak going and climb the Game Center leaderboard. SKILL IS THE ONLY POWER-UP • Coins buy skins, streak freezes and the occasional continue. They never make a level easier. • Unlock 9 Gloop skins and earn 16 achievements. • Game Center leaderboards for the highest level and the Daily Maze. MADE FOR ONE THUMB • Portrait, one screen, with chunky pixel art you can read at a glance. • Two control schemes: Two-thumb (d-pad and buttons) or Swipe, plus a left-handed layout. • Plays offline. No account needed. Gloopfall is free to play. Most ads are your choice, for a second chance or bonus coins. A short ad can play between lost runs, and Remove Ads turns that off. Optional in-app purchases add coins, which only buy looks, streak freezes and continues.
