Remember doodling games in the back of your notebook during class? Tic Tac Toe in the margins. Dots & Boxes on the last page. Snake on every scrap of paper you could find. Notebook Games brings that feeling back — right on your phone. Every game is hand-drawn on warm, yellowed notebook paper. The lines wobble a little. The text looks pencilled in. The background has eraser marks and pencil smudges, just like the real thing. It's not polished. That's the point. 18 games, all hand-drawn on paper: • Doodle Kingdom — A full card adventure drawn in the margins. Build your deck, battle doodle monsters, reach the boss. No two runs alike. • Tic Tac Toe — The timeless classic, plus Super (4x4) and Ultimate (nine boards in one) modes. • Dots & Boxes — Draw lines, capture squares, outwit the AI. • Gomoku — Five in a row on a 15x15 grid. Pinch to zoom, undo moves. • Connect Four — Drop pieces to connect four in a row. Three AI levels. • Checkers — Jump and capture on an 8x8 board. Three AI difficulty levels. • Winding Words — Trace the theme words as they twist through the grid. Every letter gets used. • Five Letters — Guess the five-letter word in six tries. Hand-drawn circles and scribbles for clues. • Mini Sudoku — Quick 4x4 puzzles. Three difficulty levels with timer. • Minesweeper — Tap to reveal, hold to flag. Includes a no-guess mode: every board is solvable by pure logic. • Word Search — Find hidden words in a letter grid. Drag to select. • Maze — Find the exit, or try One Line mode: cover every cell with a single unbroken pencil stroke. • Snake — A calmer, softer Snake. Pencil-drawn on notebook paper. • Hangman — Guess the word before the stickman swings, then learn it: pronunciation, meaning, and an example sentence. • Notebook Siege — Angry-doodles-style slingshot game. 30 hand-crafted levels across 3 chapters, plus endless mode. • Paper Football — Flick a folded paper triangle across the desk. Score touchdowns on notebook paper. • Paper Airplane — Launch a paper airplane through rings and past obstacles. Tilt to steer. • Doodle Jump — Bounce a stickman up through pencil platforms. How high can you go? A new puzzle every day: The Daily Challenge rotates through the week — a fresh Minesweeper board, Word Search, Maze, Winding Words, Five Letters, and more. Everyone gets the same puzzle. Keep your streak alive with tally marks in the margin, and share your result as a hand-drawn card. Everything you'd want, nothing you wouldn't: - No account required. Just open and play. - Works completely offline. No Wi-Fi, no problem. - No ads during gameplay - ever. - AI opponents for solo play. - Sound effects that feel like pencil on paper. - Dark mode support throughout. - Warm notebook paper aesthetic.

One miss and the run is over. Stop the needle in the glowing zone. Green scores, red kills the run, and the perfect zone is smaller than it looks. That's the whole game. It stays that simple for about ten seconds, then the needle speeds up and your thumb starts arriving late. 1000 LEVELS ACROSS 20 CHAPTERS Every chapter brings a new look and a tighter margin for error. Nobody clears them in one sitting — that's the point. THREE WAYS TO PLAY Levels — 1000 stages, each faster than the last Endless — one miss ends everything, chase your own record 60 Seconds — how many perfect stops can you land in a minute? EARN AS YOU GO Clear levels, collect coins, unlock what's behind them. Progress carries over even on the runs you fail. BUILT FOR 90 SECONDS No tutorial, no loading screen — you're playing in two seconds. A full run fits into a queue or an elevator. Simple enough for anyone, precise enough that almost nobody finishes chapter twenty. How far can you get?

Last Moment's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
