About

Gyrolith

Read full description

Tilt your phone, and a small spark of light flies. That's the whole control scheme, and it takes a lifetime to master. Gyrolith is a precision maze-action game: 100 handcrafted levels across ten worlds, each with its own dangers, enemies and tricks. - Tilt to fly. The flyer answers every lean of your phone, with momentum you can feel. Prefer your thumb? Touch steering is built in. - Ten worlds: from the Awakening's quiet halls to clockwork towers, flooded ruins, a burning forge, crystal vaults, the lightless Void, a gravity engine, the Fracture and, at last, the Core. - Enemies with minds of their own. Drones patrol, Interceptors cut you off, Hunters follow your trail round corners, and Missile Hunters lock on and fire. Lure two into each other and watch them wreck. - A ten-level chapter always ends in a showdown: a scripted encounter where the whole level turns against you. - Eight abilities. Dash, Pulse, Freeze, Shield, Phase, Decoy, Anchor and Blink, one per level. Tap anywhere to use it. - Fly fast, but carefully: slam into a wall at top speed and you crack. - Stars, relics, hidden passages, 40 achievements, and global rankings on Game Center. - Built for everyone: tilt calibration, sensitivity presets, touch controls, reduced motion, reduced flashing, high contrast and a battery saver. - Fully offline. No ads, no accounts, no tracking. Play the first chapter free. Unlock all 100 levels with a single purchase; no ads, no subscriptions.
