Kodou is a swipe-to-connect puzzle where every board plays a little differently and the clock never stops. Drag your finger across matching tiles, or find an ascending run of powers of two, 2 to 4 to 8 to 16 and beyond, for a bigger payoff. HOW TO PLAY - Swipe to connect three or more tiles: match the same value, or chain an ascending sequence of powers of two for double the score. - Watch for special tiles. Wildcards match any value, Ice tiles freeze your clock when cleared, and Bombs clear the block around them. - Plan around Blockers. They cannot be chained through. - The turn timer speeds up the longer you survive, so think fast and keep your eyes on the board. FEATURES - A twelve color palette that adapts to light and dark mode, so no two boards ever look quite the same. - Game Center leaderboards for both Score and Longest Chain, with All Time, Weekly, and Daily standings. - Full VoiceOver support. Explore the board by touch, then drag to connect a chain exactly the way a sighted player would, or build one tap at a time if you prefer. - Play the exact same game on Apple Watch. Kodou is free to play, supported by ads. A one time Remove Ads purchase clears all of them for good.
