Move, plan and press GO! Pit Cat is a cat physics puzzle where timing is everything. Pit is a sleepy black cat with a talent for getting into trouble. He always sets off in the same direction, so you can't steer him: move the pieces on the board, press GO at the right moment and watch him bounce his way to the goal. Easy to learn, hard to master: some levels are a quick brain teaser, others will make you think twice. HOW TO PLAY • Move the pieces on the board to build Pit's path. • Press GO at just the right moment. • Inside a cannon the game pauses, so you choose where he flies next. • Collect every star to master each level. • Stuck? Ask for a hint. 100 HANDCRAFTED LEVELS Every few levels a new mechanic appears: • Barrels that send Pit where their arrow points (the golden ones can be moved). • Cannons where you choose which way he flies. • Portals that teleport him to the other side. • Sliding walls on rails and walls that vanish after one touch. • A power-up that makes Pit invincible, so he smashes any enemy he touches. • Spikes, cacti, saws on the move, dogs that run straight ahead and bees that chase Pit. WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT • A cute cat game for puzzle lovers of all ages. • Satisfying physics: plan every bounce before you press GO. • Quick levels, perfect for a short break. • A simple, charming style and a hero who always lands on his feet. Featured on Pocket Gamer: a cute puzzler that is genuinely challenging. Can you guide Pit all the way to level 100?

Your endings become their beginnings. Type a word. Its last letters are stamped onto a block and dropped on your opponent's board. To clear it, they have to find a word that STARTS with those letters — and whatever they play lands back on you. That is the whole game. You are not racing a clock or matching tiles. You are choosing what to leave someone. PLAY YOUR FRIENDS Invite anyone with a link. They tap it and you're in the same room — or share a five-character code and have them type it in. Quick Match finds anyone else looking for a game right now. No account needed. TYPE FAST, OR TYPE WELL Keep firing without pausing and your chain makes every block heavier. Or reach for a long word — seven and ten letters each hit harder on their own. Break several blocks with one word and the combo carries into the next. WAYS TO PLAY VERSUS — one on one against another player, or a CPU match whenever nobody's around. SOLO — up to three CPU rivals at once, from seven with their own personalities. Metronome never breaks its chain. Berserker only ever swings. Bulwark answers everything. Wordsmith does all of it, fast. DAILY — 75 seconds, one board, the same board for everyone. One run a day, and a streak worth keeping. SURVIVAL — no clock. The pressure keeps climbing. How long can you last? WEEKLY — four new missions every week. PRACTICE — a five-step lesson that teaches the rule by doing it to you, then a training board with no opponent and no end. A KEYBOARD MADE FOR THIS The letter you press pops up above your thumb, so you see a mistap the moment it happens — and the keyboard learns where your thumbs actually land, and quietly adjusts to fit you. BUILT ON A REAL DICTIONARY Nearly 350,000 valid words. Blocks are stamped from common words, so what you're asked for is always answerable. Letter values are Scrabble's, because you already know them. EARN THE REST Every match feeds your level, your record and your title. Board themes, block styles, typing effects and victory flourishes unlock as you play, and a few more come from sharing the game. Word Wars is free. The optional Premium pack removes the ad break and adds eight painted, animated boards — Volcano, Space, Clouds, Forest, Ocean, Cyber, Desert and Aurora — along with a few other things you cannot earn.
