ORBIT LOCK โ€” the one-tap timing game that's easy to learn and impossible to put down. A dot races around a glowing orbit. Tap exactly when it crosses the target. Miss, and the lock holds. That's it โ€” and that's everything. 200 HANDCRAFTED LEVELS Crack your way through 20 unique sectors, each with its own twist: - AZURE GATE โ€” learn the basics, feel the flow - CRIMSON VAULT โ€” decoys and danger zones - IRON FRAME โ€” square tracks where hesitation is fatal - TWIN NEXUS โ€” two dots, one chance - FLUX ZONE โ€” the direction flips when you least expect it - GRAVITY WELL โ€” physics pulls your dot faster and slower - STEALTH RUN โ€” the dot itself disappears. Trust your rhythm - GUARDIAN GATE โ€” danger zones that patrol the track - WARP FIELD โ€” the dot teleports across the orbit - OMEGA LOCK โ€” everything at once. Good luck. โ€ฆand 10 more sectors of moving targets, breathing speed, racing clocks and self-crossing tracks. EPIC BOSS LOCKS Every sector ends in a boss lock with its own cinematic entrance. Survive all 20 and face the final OMEGA LOCK. SURPRISING MECHANICS Ghost targets, shrinking locks, expiring targets, twin orbits, time locks, teleports, patrolling guards โ€” every sector introduces something new, so no two levels feel the same. MAKE IT YOURS Unlock dot skins (rainbow! cat! unicorn!) and cosmic backgrounds with coins you earn by playing โ€” no purchase needed. DAILY LOCK One special lock every day. Keep your streak alive. ENDLESS MODE One life, rising speed, shrinking targets. How far can you push your best? MADE TO FEEL GOOD Neon glow, particle bursts, haptic feedback and a hypnotic space atmosphere. Short sessions, no account, no waiting โ€” pull it out, crack a lock, put it away. - Earn up to 3 stars per level - Play offline, anywhere - Free to play โ€” optional one-time purchase removes ads Can you crack the final lock?
