Pick It Up

Features

Get ready for a relaxing, satisfying, and addictive ball-collecting experience with Pick It Up! You need to swipe your finger left and right to control the purple U-shaped collector moving continuously forward on the platform to gather the tiny white balls on the track. Your main goal is to pour the balls inside your collector into the pit when you reach the red checkpoint barriers and hit the target number requested from you (e.g., 0/10, 3/20). If you successfully fill the pit with enough balls, the gates open, and you move on to the next stage. Follow the level indicator (from 1 to 2, 2 to 3) as you progress on the green and purple dynamic platforms, and masterfully collect the balls without letting them spill over the edges. Test your reflexes with changing ball formations and increasingly difficult targets as you advance! Features:Smooth swipe controls that are easy to play with one finger. The relaxing (ASMR-like) feeling of pushing hundreds of balls at once and filling the pit. 3D endless tracks with colorful green and purple backgrounds. Challenging checkpoints requiring you to collect more and more balls. Download Pick It Up now, guide your collector, gather the balls, and pass all the barriers!
