A game by Ayse Uludag Deep beneath the earth, in a cave where crystals shimmer, live the Puflar: round, fluffy, big-eyed little heroes. One day a winged shadow crosses the sky... and the Puf eggs begin to vanish one by one. Now it's time to run! RUN, JUMP, ROLL - Tap the right side of the screen -> jump. Hold the left side -> roll. - 60-second, breathless runs - a true "just one more!" game. - Leap over spikes, slide under stalactites, and fill your PUF power with close calls to dash at super speed! THE RULES CHANGE AT ANY MOMENT The only law of this world is change: sometimes everything speeds up, sometimes colors swap, sometimes the world flips like a mirror. No one knows what the next rule will be. Those who adapt, win! THREE ADORABLE HEROES - Poncik - hasty and optimistic; jumps once more in mid-air. - Tinti - shy but clever; senses the rule change before anyone else and turns into a ghost to pass through everything. - Kornit - a proud crystal; doubles every score, and when broken never gives up: Crack Mode! CUB NEST Every cub you rescue settles into your nest: spotted, striped, starry, heart-shaped, sparkly... Tap and they jump; pet them and they chirp. As your nest grows, the cave comes alive again. SO WHY IS THE DRAGON ALWAYS ANGRY? Everyone runs from it. But the bravest Puflar will one day notice something very different... We can't reveal the secret here - rescue ten cubs and see with your own eyes. We'll only say this much: nothing is as it seems. MAP OF REALMS From the Crystal Cave to the Ancient Forest, from Deep Space to the Plains of Mars, from the Green Meadow to the Deep Ocean - unlock the path through six realms, run by run. A surprise awaits you on the third run of each realm. SHADOW PUF In the final seconds, a mysterious shadow starts chasing you - its moves will feel very, very familiar. There's only one way to escape it... No racing against anyone else: this race is entirely between you and yourself. FOR FAMILIES - No ads. No in-app purchases. No data collected. - No energy waits, no loot boxes, no streak pressure - the thrill comes from skill, flow, and love for the characters. - No one "dies": when you lose, Poncik gets sad and says "Again!" - Ages 4+; the sweet spot of the design is ages 6-11. Run, Poncik - the cubs are waiting for you!

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Puflar at none against CactusPop's shown. CactusPop's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.6). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
