About

Oh Flap!

Read full description

One tap. Infinite regret. Oh Flap! is the game where a tiny bird with zero survival instincts tries to navigate through pipes that have absolutely no business being there. Your job? Tap. That's it. Tap and pray. Sounds easy? Adorable. You'll hit the first pipe. 21 WORLDS THAT FIGHT BACK This isn't just a reskin situation. Every world rewrites the rules. Moonlight makes you floaty and peaceful โ€” like yoga, but with pipes. Volcano cranks gravity to "cruel" and dares you to survive. Retrowave moves so fast you'll question your life choices. Cherry blossoms drift by in Sakura while you fail gracefully. Each world has its own physics, its own vibe, and its own way of making you say "one more try." Try any world free for one game. Fall in love. Then buy it. We believe in informed heartbreak. 3 CHARACTERS, 3 MOODS Pip the bird โ€” brave, round, questionable decision-maker. Cosmo the rocket โ€” literally built for flight, still hits pipes. Hoot the owl โ€” wise enough to know better, plays anyway. DAILY CHALLENGES A new challenge drops every day. Beat it. Build your streak. Miss a day and we'll send you a notification so passive-aggressive it could be from your mother. STATS FOR THE OBSESSED Track your last 7 days of glory (or tragedy). See your average score climb. Watch your improvement trend go up โ€” or sideways, no judgment. Bar charts, play streaks, best runs, total pipes cleared. It's beautiful. Your therapist would call it "unhealthy focus." We call it dedication. GAME CENTER Leaderboards and achievements. Find out you're #47,382 globally and let that fuel your next 200 games. Unlock hidden achievements like "Belly Flop" (score zero) and "Night Owl" (playing past 11 PM, you absolute legend). iCLOUD SYNC Switch devices without losing progress. Your high score follows you everywhere, like a proud ghost. NO ADS. NO ENERGY. NO NONSENSE. No banner ads. No "watch a video to continue." No waiting 4 hours for lives to refill. You pay nothing to play. Themes and skins are cosmetic โ€” they look amazing but they won't save you from the pipes. Nothing can save you from the pipes. Oh Flap! is handcrafted with love, caffeine, and an unreasonable number of pipe-related deaths during testing. Now tap. And try not to hit the first one.

About

Thumb Marbles

Features
Read full description

A marble game you can almost feel. Slide forward deliberately, feel the thumb snap, and flick realistic glass marbles across the felt. Move your shooter anywhere along the launch rail, calculate the angle, and clear every target before your shots run out. Play free, offline, with no advertising and no account required. Choose between two complete journeys with 96 levels in total. EXPLORE 48 FREE HEALING ORCHARD LEVELS Pull back a river stone, release the sling, and knock apples from a peaceful painted orchard. Move your launch position freely, watch fruit fall into the harvest basket, and keep a stone flying through more than one apple. Eight chapters add wider fruit arrangements, visible rebound obstacles, moving branch guards, changing ground, and optional mastery goals. All 48 Orchard levels are free, with separate progress and no power-up spending. MASTER 48 CLASSIC RING LEVELS Progress through eight chapters of tighter shot limits, mixed materials, moving bumpers, armor, vaults, precision locks, surface zones, and mastery goals. The first 36 levels are free. Chapters 7 and 8 are available as one optional permanent expansion. BUILD A SKILL-BASED LOADOUT Earn coins through play and spend them on six campaign power-ups: longer trajectory guidance, steadier control, extra elasticity, added mass, score criticals, or one extra flick. No paid coin packs are offered, and fair modes ignore numerical power-ups. LAND PERFECT STRIKES Hit clean, aligned, high-energy shots for a deterministic momentum bonus. Score-only critical strikes add excitement without changing collision physics. COMPLETE DAILY MISSIONS Return for a deterministic new board, improve your best score, build a streak, and complete three daily missions for coins and a free power-up. DUEL OFFLINE AI Share one persistent board with an AI opponent in fast six-turn matches where position and timing decide the winner. FEEL EVERY SHOT Realistic glass marbles, responsive haptics, strength-aware launch sounds, collision effects, and an animated right- or left-handed thumb make each flick feel physical. KEEP MOVING FORWARD After repeated failed attempts, receive a recommended support item. Practice Assist becomes available later with an extra shot and aim help while capping mastery at two stars. No account required. No advertising. Progress, settings, rewards, and match history stay on your device. Clear the ring one perfect flick at a time.
