About

Neon Lock

Read full description

Tap at exactly the right moment. No wifi needed. Neon Lock is a one-tap reflex game you can play anywhere, even offline. Watch the needle sweep around the ring and tap the instant it crosses the glowing gate. Every lock speeds things up, and every ten locks take you into a new signal zone with its own twist. Simple to learn. Hard to master. A LIVING NIGHT SKY A crisp neon lock over a sky that never sits still. Shooting stars cross behind the ring, and the higher the zone, the busier the sky gets. Keep your eyes on the needle. SIGNAL JOURNEY Climb through 13 zones from calm to chaos: twin gates, a mirrored needle, sudden reversals, decoys, a phantom gate and more. Survive them all and everything mixes together in Overdrive. DAILY SIGNAL One challenge a day, the same for every player: 25 locks, 3 lives and three rules picked for today. Share your emoji grid and climb the daily leaderboard. WORKSHOP Build your own lock. Choose a Ring, a Needle, a Gate and a Scene, try any of them in a live preview, and unlock them with the stars you earn by playing. Premium parts such as the Katana needle, the Crystal gate and the Aurora scene react to every hit. Every part is cosmetic: none of them makes the game easier. APPLE WATCH Play the endless run and the Daily Signal on your wrist with a single tap. FEATURES • One-tap arcade gameplay, playable offline • 13 signal zones, each with its own rule • Perfect locks worth double, plus Flow streaks • Daily Signal with a shareable result grid • Workshop: 24 rings, needles, gates and scenes to mix • Apple Watch app • Game Center leaderboards, 14 achievements and friend challenges • Daily missions and a seven-day reward track • Available in 16 languages How far can you keep the signal alive? Neon Lock includes optional advertising and in-app purchases. Gameplay works offline; advertising, purchases and Game Center need a network connection.
