The Last Spark

Features
Read full description

The beacons are going out. You are the last spark. Tap anywhere and your spark hops to the next beacon. Each beacon sits in a housing with one swinging opening: arrive while it is open and you thread through. Arrive on the tick, the instant it swings home, and you are paid double and the dark rising from below is pushed back. Arrive wrong and the housing holds. There is no aiming. The only thing you decide is when. KEY FEATURES • ONE TAP, ONE DECISION Tap anywhere to hop. No drag, no line to draw. Every run is a question of timing, and the answer is always on screen. • ON THE TICK The field ticks with sound and a haptic. Land on the tick and the opening's edges turn white, the Embers double and the dark falls back. • OUTRUN THE DARK A black front climbs from below and never stops. Every clean landing buys you ground. When your luck runs out, it is waiting. • THREE ZONES, THREE KEYSTONES Climb through the Low Shroud, the Resonant Rift and the Zenith Core. Every ten ranks a Keystone freezes the field and lets you draft a relic or a boon. Beat rank 30 and climb on past it. • NEW DANGERS, NEW HELP Dark bands to cross, shutters that open and shut on your flight line, wisps to touch for an Ember. Supernova and Arc beacons, and gift beacons that hold the dark back or pay extra Embers. • LUMENS AND FLARE String clean landings together to light your Lumens, then swipe up to Flare: a surge forward that pushes the dark back and shatters what stands in your way. • ENDLESS AND LONG SHOT Endless is the climb. Long Shot spaces every row wider, so each throw hangs longer and each landing counts for more. • YOUR EMBERLING Earn Embers by playing and unlock Bodies and Wings in the Armory. Choose how your moth looks and how it flies. • DAILY CONSTELLATIONS AND THE SKY ATLAS Light three stars a day to draw a constellation. Each lit night joins your Sky Atlas, galaxy by galaxy. • YOUR PROGRESS TRAVELS Your saves sync through Game Center, so a new phone picks up where the old one stopped. • FAIR, ALWAYS No ads. No energy timers. No paid revives. Everything is earnable by play, and it plays offline with instant restarts. Optional Ember packs only save time.
