About

I Recall

Features
Read full description

i Recall is a memory game that grows with you. A sequence flashes on screen. Tap it back. Each round, the sequence grows by one. How far can your short-term memory carry you? Four ways to play: Endless - Push your best digit, letter, or alphanumeric streak. The deeper you go, the harder it gets. Daily Challenge - A fresh run every day in every mode. Build a daily-return streak that rewards showing up. Random sequences keep replays honest. Maze Escape - A roguelike escape room built on the recall core. Navigate procedurally generated mazes, solve memory challenges to enter each room, find tools (lantern, compass, skeleton key), recover the key, and reach the gate before the alarm hits 100 percent. Difficulty scales with each level you escape. Pass-and-Play Multiplayer - Classic add-on rules on one device. A privacy gate between turns keeps each player's input honest. Made for the way memory actually works: Three alphabets - Digits, Letters, and Alphanumeric - each with its own color identity (cyan, pink, gold). Bold, neon-glow visuals tuned for OLED displays. Haptics that match the rhythm of the game (toggle off in Settings if you'd rather play silent). Personal best tracking per mode, plus a Stats screen so you can watch your progress. Game Center leaderboards and online race (sign in to compete; the rest of the app works without it). Privacy first. No tracking. No ads. No data collection. Your scores, streaks, and settings stay on your device. Built natively for iPhone and iPad. Works offline.
