One finger. Terrible physics. Endless sausage. Pull back, aim, let go — then watch your sausage flop, bounce, spin and (hopefully) land in the pot. SausageDrop is a physics game about the least aerodynamic food ever invented. HOW IT WORKS Hold to charge. Release to launch. That's the whole control scheme. Everything else is you slowly learning what a sausage does when it hits a wooden plank at speed — and tapping at the right moment to flip it back over. 60 HAND-BUILT LEVELS Seven kitchens, each with its own weather and mood — sunny counter, rain, storm, night shift, hot pan, sunset and the laboratory. Planks tilt, slide, vanish and lie to you. Springs fire, shelves spin, saw blades turn, gas burners flare. Three stars a level if you're clean about it, one if you just survive. ENDLESS MODE No finish line. One long kitchen and your own best distance to beat. Your ghost run replays right beside you, so you can see exactly where you got greedy. 57 SAUSAGES TO UNLOCK Smoked, paprika, bacon, salmon and ten legendary ones whose colours never stop moving — Holo Flux, Infernal, Abyssal, Nebula, Midas, Voltage. Planks, backgrounds and kitchen gear come in the same legendary set, so the whole kitchen can shift colour around you. ALSO IN THE BOX • Game Center leaderboard for endless distance • A daily reward that hands out coins, gear and, rarely, a legendary avatar • Haptics that actually match what's on screen • The game plays offline anywhere; only the ads need a connection • One save file, always yours Coins are earned by playing. They can also be bought if you're impatient. The game shows ads: a banner in the menu, an occasional full-screen ad between levels, and reward videos you choose to watch. A one-time No Ads purchase removes them for good.
