Bumblewick is the clumsiest apprentice in the realm — and somehow YOU have to keep his magic from crashing to the floor. Tap to bounce wobbling orbs, potions, scrolls, gems, stars and wands back into the air, keep them aloft, and catch them before they fall. Miss one and a heart goes with it. It's a cozy, one-handed arcade juggler with a storybook heart and a surprising amount of depth. JUGGLE THE IMPOSSIBLE - Simple one-tap controls anyone can pick up in seconds - Objects launch, wobble and tumble — the higher the level, the wilder the air - Tiny treasures are worth the most… if your taps are quick enough CAST A LITTLE CHAOS - Unlock spells like Updraft, Slow Time and Auto-Grab to rescue a hopeless moment - Pop enchanted blooms: Boomblossoms burst to sweep up everything nearby with a satisfying whump, Dreampuffs set the whole sky adrift, and more - Dodge cursed flames and bubbling poison — some things are better left to fall COLLECT COZY COMPANIONS - Befriend whimsical familiars — a crow, a chameleon, a cat — who roam your workshop and lend a hand - Dress them (and Bumblewick) in playful skins - Tier up medals, chase achievements, and claim a daily login bonus A LIVING LITTLE WORLD - A continuous day-to-night sky with drifting clouds, an arcing sun and twinkling constellations - Original, hand-crafted art and a gentle, generative soundtrack — every plink made just for the game - Checkpoints let you leap back into the deep end; leaderboards crown the steadiest hands Free to play, friendly to everyone. Optional rewarded ads can revive a run or double your coins, and a one-time Remove Ads is always there if you'd rather just juggle. Can you keep Bumblewick's bumbling magic in the air?
