BALL x PIT is a brick-breaking, ball-fusing, base-building survival roguelite. Batter hordes of enemies with ricocheting balls and gather the riches of the pit to expand your homestead, generate resources and recruit unique heroes. BALL x PIT is a fast-paced fantasy roguelite where heroes must find the balls to plunge deeper into a seemingly bottomless pit of monsters. Develop arcane ammunition and resources in pursuit of treasure, recruiting additional heroes to aid you in your perilous quest. Ballbylon has fallen. After a meteoric and completely unexpected event annihilated the great city, all that remains is an ominous, yawning pit. Treasure hunters from far and wide flock to the city’s tomb to seek their fortune, plumbing the depths in search of Ballbylon’s scattered riches. Few return. The pit plays host to armies of barbaric creatures, hellbent on ending your quest before it even begins. Armed with a growing arsenal of magic-infused projectiles, batter your way through multiple levels of increasingly challenging obstacles to claim the ultimate prizes and rebuild New Ballbylon. Fuse Your Balls The Ball Fusion system encourages explosive experimentation with over 60 randomized balls to equip and combine during your journey. Discover overpowered combinations and unexpected synergies from hundreds of possible outcomes. Build New Ballbylon Expand New Ballbylon with over 70 unique buildings that provide gameplay bonuses and unlock further power-ups, new characters, and more! As your community grows, task homebound heroes with automated tasks to keep the resources coming while you dive deeper into the pit. Discover New Realms Face legions of diverse enemies within the pit, battling through barren deserts, frozen caverns, savage forests and more. Each region offers its own unique set of hazards on top of hordes of increasingly challenging foes and mighty, screen-filling bosses. Recruit Fellow Hunters As you explore the pit you’ll encounter fellow treasure hunters eager to add their skills to your expedition. Each character has unique, upgradable mechanics that totally change the way you play the game. Experimentation and adaptation are crucial to the success of New Ballbylon!

Reflexa is a listening game that gets kids up on their feet instead of glued to the screen. The rule is simple: if the sentence starts with "Reflexa says", do it — if it doesn't, don't move a muscle! Trick sentences exercise attention and impulse control: listen first, think, then move. HOW TO PLAY • "Reflexa says jump three times!" - jump! • "Touch your nose." - don't do it — it's a trick! • Press the blue button when you're done; green check if you got it right, red cross if not. • Earn a star for every correct task! WHAT'S INSIDE • 110+ movement tasks with real voice acting in 7 languages (jump, spin, find, pretend...) • Adorable animations and a toy-like design • 5 environments: home, office, park, playroom and car — tasks adapt to where you are • 3 difficulty levels (1, 2 or 3 stars) • 1–4 players: take turns or play all together • A voice-guided how-to-play tutorial • Playable offline after the first download DESIGNED FOR PRE-READERS There is no text on screen: a 3-year-old can open the app and start a game alone. All guidance is spoken and visual. SKILLS IT SUPPORTS Attention, focus, listening, impulse control, left–right awareness and body awareness. FOR PARENTS • No ads, no in-app purchases • No personal information is asked for or collected; scores stay on the device • External links sit behind a parental gate Tip: Reflexa is an audio-first game — turn the volume up!
