Somewhere in the pile there is one needle. Everything else is not. Windies is a game of looking. Pan and zoom across a dense haystack, find the needle, tap it. The clock counts up, and every wrong tap adds five seconds. That is the whole game — and it gets harder in a way most games do not. The difficulty is never more straw. It is decoys. Nails, pins, wire, splinters, staples, and eventually broken needles that share the needle's colour, its thickness, and its shape — everything but the eye. By the later levels the eye is the only thing you are looking for. A hundred levels, ten worlds, and a pile that will not hold still. WHAT IS IN IT • 100 levels across ten worlds, from a lit barn to a pile you can only see by lantern light • Decoys that grow steadily more like the needle, so your eye has to grow with them • Storms that rock the pile, haze that flattens it, and levels with two needles to find • Three stars a level, timed against a par • A leaderboard of fastest finishes, no account needed • A short how-to-play with real boards, not pictures HINTS One hint a level is free. It narrows the search and costs time on the clock. Unlimited hints is a single purchase — it lifts the limit and changes nothing else. A bought hint costs exactly what a free one does, so the leaderboard stays honest. QUIET BY DESIGN No accounts, no sign in, no ads. Your progress lives on your phone. The only thing that ever leaves it is a leaderboard time, and only if you choose to post one. Sound, haptics, reduced motion, a left-handed layout, and a colour-blind-safe mode are all in Settings. It is a game about patience and a good eye. Take your time. The needle is there. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
