Rimfall is a one-finger arena survival game. Waves of enemies pour in from all sides — dodge them, dash at the last second and knock them off the edge. One slip and you're the one who falls. EVERY 5TH WAVE, A BOSS 17 bosses, each with its own arena and mechanic: lava eruptions, frost rings that freeze you in place, a storm that drags you to the edge, a black hole that swallows anything that gets too close, tidal waves, snowballs, teleporting ninjas and more. SIMPLE TO LEARN, HARD TO MASTER Drag to move, tap to dash. That's it. Chain combos, pull off near-misses for bonus points and use power-ups — rockets, smash, pushback — when things get crowded. MAKE IT YOURS Unlock balls, hats, trails and arenas with coins you earn by playing. Legendary skins like Galaxy, Ice and Hearts are waiting. SOMETHING NEW EVERY DAY Daily missions, a 7-day login streak, an Arena of the Day with bonus coins and a Daily Challenge with its own rule and its own leaderboard. COMPETE Daily, weekly and all-time leaderboards, weekly leagues from Bronze to Diamond, plus Game Center achievements. Share your score card with friends and dare them to beat it. Free to play. Optional ads let you continue a run or double your coins; a one-time purchase removes interstitial ads for good.
