About

Dark Maze Bomber

Features
Read full description

A dark labyrinth. Wobbling slimes. Phasing ghosts. Ambushers in the corners. You — and a pocket of bombs. Dark Maze Bomber is a modern retro-arcade dungeon escape. Every maze is procedurally generated, but nothing about it is random — every level rides a hand-tuned difficulty curve. Plant a bomb, blow the wall, find the key, open the gate, get out. Before the monsters get you. FEATURES • 16 main levels plus a procedural maze in every run • 5 bomb types — Normal, TNT, Drill, Remote, Proximity Mine • 8 monster archetypes, each with its own AI — Slimes wobble in, ghosts phase through walls, tanks hunt you • Multiplayer arena (BETA): 2-4 player free-for-all + 2v2 team • Hidden bonus rooms tucked behind sigil chains, altars, and stubborn crates • Permanent upgrades: HP, bomb count, range, speed, shield, ghost, teleport • Game Center: 12 achievements, per-level leaderboards, total score • No ads, no tracking, optional diamond packs (always optional) • Accessibility: reduced-motion mode and colorblind glyphs CONTROLS Joystick on the left thumb, bomb button on the right. Cycle bomb types, drop a beacon to find the exit, use a compass to locate the key. iPhone and iPad supported, portrait and landscape. WHY THIS GAME? Most mobile games bomb you with ads and constant "go premium" nudges. This isn't that. No ads. No trackers. No third-party SDKs. We don't collect your data. The game is free; diamond packs are entirely optional. Ready to descend?

About

Ynera

Features
Read full description

Ynera is a one-tap arcade game about keeping your attention on one thing. Your ship orbits in one of two lanes, and a tap switches it to the other. That's the whole control scheme. Everything else is timing. Lose the thread for half a second and you find out right away. The game splits in two. Six free-play modes for a quick run, and VOYAGE, a campaign across eight planets and 80 levels that keeps its own currency and its own reasons to come back. HOW YOU PLAY • Tap to switch between the inner and outer orbit lane • Dodge gates, reversing zones, and double obstacles that force split-second reads • Collect orbs to build score chains, and rare prisms for bonus value • Survive surge waves that pick up the pace every few sectors • Grab shield, slow-motion, magnet, and reverse power-ups mid-run VOYAGE, THE CAMPAIGN • Eight planets across two galaxies, each with a hazard the others don't have • Every planet holds an element to mine, and a gateway level that stays shut until you've mined enough of it • A pilot's logbook fills in as you fly. Some pages sit behind the quota, and the book is missing entries on purpose • Each record you find is worth one seed. Seeds are the only way to grow the legacy tree, and they can't be bought or watched for • Spend elements and orbs in the refinery to upgrade nine ship systems • The campaign runs on a life pool that refills over time FREE PLAY • Endless, Hard, Daily, Time Attack, Chaos, and Tri-Orbit, where a third lane rewrites the geometry • Free modes never cost a life. Play as long as you want • Twenty-four sector seals to earn, each one asking for a different kind of run • Daily and weekly missions, achievements, levels and XP • Shop: ships, themes, and trail colors • Share your run with a one-tap result card CARRIED BETWEEN DEVICES Your save syncs through Game Center. When the phone and the cloud disagree, the game shows you what each side holds and lets you pick. It never overwrites on its own. SETTINGS FOR HOW YOU PLAY Slow the whole game down, widen the margin on near misses, move the controls for left-handed play, or turn screen shake down or off. Sound, music, and haptics each have their own switch. ABOUT ADS - No banner ads. You never see a fixed ad strip at the top or bottom of a screen. - Six moments are optional: continue a run, double the orbs you just earned, refill lives, take the daily orb bonus, enter a Voyage level with a shield, or retry the daily run. Each one is your choice, and skipping costs nothing. - One ad can appear when you return to the menu after a run: at most every fourth run, and never less than four minutes apart. Your first three runs have none. - The app has in-app purchases: orb packs, No Ads, cosmetics, and a monthly subscription that removes the life cost of Voyage. No level and no mode is locked behind a purchase. - The third-party code in the app is Google's ad SDK, its consent tool and Firebase Analytics. Analytics only runs if you allow it, and there are no trackers. PERFECT FOR - Short sessions between other things - Anyone who has trouble staying with one thing and wants a game that asks for exactly that - Arcade and endless-runner fans who want pure reflex, no fluff - Anyone who likes chasing their own high score Playable in Turkish, English, German, and Spanish.
