Flick a coin. A live Bitcoin chart falls out. Sometimes it's a 5-minute candle. Sometimes a week of gold. Once, mid-Trick-Shot, the Nvidia coin slid into the pocket and revealed NVDA's last hour as a green gradient line — and I forgot I was playing. Eleven real markets sit on the felt: • Crypto — Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Dogecoin • Metals — Gold (XAU), Silver (XAG), Copper • Energy — Crude Oil (WTI) • Stocks — S&P 500 (SPY), Apple (AAPL), Nvidia (NVDA) Live prices stream from Binance perpetual futures. Every flick rolls a new chart — random timeframe, random style. The same Bitcoin coin shows you a different chart every time you knock it. The coins have mass that matches the asset. Gold is a brick. Doge is a marble. Hit Copper with Silver and physics behaves like physics. Tilt your phone and the table tilts with you. The felt remembers. How it plays • Pass-and-play with a friend, or take on the bot • Wager Tiny, Big, or All before each shot — pot scales 1× to 5× as coins fall • 20 hand-designed Trick Shot puzzles, three-star scoring • Daily Challenge with a par score I have personally failed to beat on a Tuesday Not a trading app. A fidget toy that happens to stream perpetual futures — bitcoin charts, oil prices, gold price, stock charts of NVDA, AAPL, SPY. All real. All live. Free. No ads. No subscriptions. POCKET RACING Pick one of five original cars and race three laps on the felt circuit. Boost on straights, grip through bends, and coast to recharge. Follow the standings and replay the same challenge with new choices. Racing works offline. Your coin game, daily challenges and trick shots are still here.
