How it plays - Hold anywhere to anchor into bullet time - Release to sling forward on a tangent line - Graze hazards for risky near-miss bonuses - Chain clean moves to build combos - Unlock neon skins and push for a new best run Built for fast restarts, portrait play, and that “one more try” score chase.

One tap. One loop. How long can you last? Loop Dodge is an offline arcade game about riding an orbit and slipping past everything that wants to end your run. Tap to switch lanes. Skim a spike instead of dodging it wide, and your near misses chain into a score multiplier. SIMPLE TO PLAY, HARD TO PUT DOWN One control. No timers, no energy, no waiting. Every run is one more try. GO DEEPER Survive long enough and the run descends into deeper Spheres. The deep pays better: draft relics mid-run — powerful pacts, some of them cursed — duel the Wardens that guard each layer, and earn Souls from sheer depth. THE FORGE Spend Souls to attune a relic and seed it into your opening Pact, so it starts active on every run. MAKE IT YOURS 13 tracks, each paying a bigger gem multiplier — from Loop ×1 all the way to Prism ×20. 11 worlds. 59 ball skins and 15 trails. Or turn any photo on your phone into your ball. A NEW CHALLENGE EVERY DAY One ranked daily run — the exact same course for every player in the world. Beat 30 seconds to win the prize, and build a streak for bigger daily rewards. PLAYS ANYWHERE Fully playable offline. No account, no sign-in. Your progress is stored on your device. PLAYS IN YOUR LANGUAGE English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Italian, Russian, Japanese and Korean. Free to play, with optional in-app purchases and opt-in rewarded ads.
