About

Rotating Knife Target

Features
Read full description

It hits the mark every time, never missing a shot。 This is a casual game. In the game, when the flying knife is thrown into the air, click the screen and the flying knife will be launched along the tip of the knife. After hitting the target, you gain power accumulation. When you hit the target three times in a row, the throwing knife will have the traditional ability and can destroy multiple targets with one strike. The game seems simple, but when the enemies have various movement trajectories, it tests the player's hand-eye coordination. What you need to do is to predict the enemy's movement path and make sure there are no mistakes.

About

Device Shift

Features
Read full description

Tap 'swap,' 'push-pull,' or 'rotate' to move shapes into matching outlines. Game introduction: Device Shift!Tap "swap," "push-pull," or "rotate" devices in grid levels to trigger actions. Maneuver shapes by pushing, pulling, rotating, or swapping them into matching target outlines—solve spatial logic puzzles with precision. Game Features: Minimalist mechanism, endless combinations: A single device can trigger actions with just a click (such as linearly pushing a block/rotating and exchanging adjacent shapes), but multiple devices can be linked to create a chain puzzle of "push to trigger rotation → rotation activates push and pull → push and pull unlocks new paths", with difficulty gradually increasing with each level. Goal-oriented, with a sense of accomplishment: Each level takes "perfect matching between the shape and the target point" as the core objective. During the process, players need to plan the sequence of operations, anticipate the linkage effects of the devices, and experience a thrilling sense of "sudden enlightenment" when solving the puzzle.
