One tap. One rule. Don’t fall. Bounce or Die is a neon-drenched arcade game where the only thing between you and oblivion is your thumb. Tap to bounce. Land on platforms. Go higher. It’s that simple, until it isn’t. Platforms crumble beneath you. Others slide sideways just to be rude. Some launch you skyward. Some blink out of existence entirely. The higher you climb, the faster everything moves and the smaller your landing zone gets. Every run is 30 seconds of pure focus — or 3 seconds of overconfidence. Collect coins, unlock 15 character skins, and chase a high score that always feels one tap away. No tutorials. No hand-holding. Just you, gravity, and increasingly poor odds. FEATURES · One-tap gameplay — impossibly simple, unreasonably addictive · 6 platform types that each find new ways to end your run · 15 collectible character skins — earn them, buy them, flex them · Neon void aesthetic — dark, glowing, zero clutter · Haptic feedback and sound design tuned to every bounce · Daily login bonus to feed your skin collection · No ads. Seriously. None. Ever. Fair warning: your high score will haunt you. Bounce or Die offers optional in-app purchases including coin packs ($0.99–$9.99), a Starter Pack ($3.99), and premium character skins ($0.99–$1.99). All purchases are cosmetic only and provide no gameplay advantage. Coin packs are consumable. Skins and the Starter Pack are one-time purchases that persist across devices. No subscriptions. No ads.

One tap is all it takes. Place a single ball and watch a massive chain reaction unfold across the screen. Colorful balls bounce around the field. Tap to place your starter ball — it expands, collides with anything nearby, and triggers a cascade of explosions. Each collision grows the chain, racking up points and clearing the field. Your goal: expand enough balls to pass the level. Simple to learn, tricky to master. Timing and placement are everything. Wait for the right moment, tap in the right spot, and watch the chain unfold. FEATURES - 26 levels across Regular and Advanced modes - One-tap gameplay — easy to pick up, hard to put down - Chain reaction scoring — deeper chains earn more points - Bonus balls that grow in value while expanded - Penalty balls that punish reckless chains - Clear Field Bonus — pop every ball before any shrink for a massive score multiplier - 2x speed mode — hold to fast-forward through chain reactions - Progress bar showing how close you are to passing each level - Game Center leaderboards to compete globally - Local leaderboards for offline play - Haptic feedback that lets you feel every collision - Smooth 120 FPS rendering on ProMotion displays - Full support for iPhone and iPad in any orientation Start with just a few balls and a low target. By the end, you'll be orchestrating chain reactions across 60 balls, dodging obstacles, and chasing high scores. Unlock Advanced Mode after beating all 13 Regular levels for tighter requirements and more penalty balls. Think you've mastered Kinetrix? Advanced Mode will prove otherwise.
