STILLBLADE

Charge. Strike. STILLBLADE is an action game about standing still to attack. One rule: evade the closing enemies, and cut them down with Iai โ€” the art of the single draw-strike. โ–  Tension in stillness, release in a flash Your attack takes one second to charge โ€” and while charging, you cannot move. Run, or strike? As enemies close in from every side, where and when you choose to stand still decides everything. Charge fully, and you dash in a flash, cutting down every enemy in your path. โ–  Greed pays The more enemies you cut down in one strike, the more your score grows. Play it safe, one kill at a time? Or lure a crowd and risk it all for a massive combo? That risk-reward tension is irresistible. โ–  Simple to learn - Drag to move - Hold a spot away from you for 1 second to unleash Iai - Multi-kills score big No tutorial. You'll be playing in seconds โ€” and before you know it, "one more run." โ–  A world of silence Neon lights floating on a dark night field โ€” a minimal, quiet scene. No background music. Sound effects can be muted, too. โ–  Play with peace of mind - No ads - No internet required (fully offline) - No data collection, no tracking - Just one one-time in-app purchase - No subscriptions, no consumables โ–  Free version & Full version The free version gives you 1 life per run โ€” no limits on score or gameplay. A one-time in-app purchase (Full Version) unlocks 5 lives, so you can push further for high scores. Scores are earned by skill alone. Paying never makes you stronger. For iPhone and iPad.
