GAME FEATURES - 45 hand-built levels across 3 themed worlds, then Endless Mode keeps generating fresh boards forever - Levels are not all the same task - score targets, collecting a candy color, popping blockers, clearing jelly and pulling off big combos, mixed in from early on - Board shapes beyond the classic square - bowls, diamonds, crosses, hourglasses and more, each with its own layout - Obstacles to work around: icing and chocolate blockers, licorice locks and cages, and jelly to clear - Strategic combo system with score multipliers, plus a Fever Mode for sustained cascades - Star rating system - earn up to 3 stars per level - Limited moves add strategic depth, with up to two free rescue offers if you run out - Shuffle power-up when you are stuck - or a free automatic reshuffle if the board itself runs dry - A winding world map - your progress as a journey, not a grid - Auto-save progress - pick up where you left off - Game Center leaderboards ranking how far you have come: highest level reached, plus total stars - No ads interrupting your gameplay - Play offline anytime, anywhere LIVES Square Falls uses a lives system: you start with 5 lives, and a spent life refills on its own after 30 minutes. A life is spent when an attempt ends without winning - losing a level, or choosing to abandon one already in progress (confirmed first, so it is never accidental) - never just for starting a level. Run out and you will see a countdown to the next free life. There is no way to pay past it: Square Falls has no In-App Purchases at all, and no ads. Waiting always works. CHALLENGE YOURSELF - Complete each level's own tasks before running out of moves - not always just a score - Plan ahead to create powerful combo chains - Each world introduces new board shapes and obstacles - Earn perfect 3-star ratings on every level - Compare your progress with friends on Game Center leaderboards HOW TO PLAY 1. Swipe a square toward an adjacent square to swap them - or tap one, then tap a neighbour 2. Create matches of 3 or more same-coloured squares 3. Trigger combos for bonus multipliers 4. Complete the level's tasks, shown before your first move, to win 5. Unlock special candies with matches of 4 or more LANGUAGE Square Falls is currently available in German only.

About

Swish Game

Features
Read full description

Dive into Swish Game - a calm, beautiful underwater puzzle where a single tap sets a sea creature swimming free. Every fish, eel, and octopus faces a direction. Tap one, and it darts away - but only if the lane ahead of it is clear. The puzzle is finding the order: which creature to free first so the rest can follow. Every move is a tiny "aha". • 300 hand-crafted levels - every single one is guaranteed solvable. • Gentle learning curve. The first levels teach you; the reef slowly fills with trickier creatures and shapes. • Meet the locals: darting fish, long wiggly sea-eels that need a clear lane, octopuses that hold their neighbours in place, plus coral, rocks, bombs and traps to plan around. • A living ocean. Light rays, drifting bubbles, caustics and glossy creatures that gently bob and blink. • Hints whenever you want one - you are never stuck. • Three soothing colour themes: Sand, Ocean and Dusk. No pressure, no clutter: • NO ads. • NO in-app purchases. • NO internet required - play anywhere, even on a plane. • NO accounts, NO tracking - we collect nothing. Perfect for a quiet moment, a commute, or winding down - and gentle enough for kids. Pay once, play forever. English and Turkish are supported.
