Qurvix vs Trace

Qurvix is a fast-paced arcade game inspired by the classic Qix. Guide your marker along the border of the playfield and venture into open space to claim territory. Draw a trail, connect back to the border, and watch the enclosed area fill with colour. Claim 75% of the playfield to advance to the next level. But be careful! The Qurvix, a mesmerising morphing creature, roams the open space. If it crosses your trail while you're drawing, you lose health and your trail is destroyed. And the Sparx patrol the border, ready to punish you for lingering too long. Features - Tilt or swipe controls - choose your style - Increasingly challenging levels with more enemies and faster Sparx - Power-ups: heart (restore health), shield (no health damage), freeze (stop all enemies) - Satisfying neon visuals with glowing trails and electric effects How to play - Tilt mode: tilt your phone to slide the marker along or away from the border - Swipe mode: swipe to launch the marker, or move it along the border (tap to stop) - Venture into open space to draw a trail - Connect back to the border to claim the enclosed area - Collect 75% of the playfield to complete the level - Avoid the Qurvix crossing your trail - it destroys it and drains your health - Stay away from the Sparx on the border - Try to collect the power-ups before they disappear

Trace is a minimalist brain puzzle game about memory and steady hands. Each level briefly reveals a maze — walls or a glowing path — and then it's gone. Now retrace the route from start to finish in one continuous gesture. From memory. No timer on the solve phase. You don't have to be fast. You have to remember, and trust what you remember. BRAIN TRAINING Trace works as a daily exercise for short-term memory, spatial reasoning, and focused attention. A few seconds to absorb the maze, then it's just you and the trace you draw from memory. Short sessions, real cognitive load — five to ten minutes a day adds up. CORE MECHANIC • Memorize the maze in 3–8 seconds • Draw the solution in one unbroken motion • Fail, retry — but tougher levels don't fully reset CHECKPOINT FLAGS Before each attempt you can plant a flag mid-path. If your stroke reaches the flag but fails later, that section banks — next try starts already-completed up to the flag. The game rewards careful play, not frantic retries. FOUR CHAPTERS • Spark — tutorial, simple paths • Echo — 3×3 and 4×4 walls • Dusk — start and finish hidden during memorization • Abyss — 5×5+ grids, sometimes rotated between memorize and draw WHAT IT TRAINS • Short-term memory — hold the path in mind after a brief reveal • Spatial reasoning — a route, not a picture • Concentration — one steady gesture demands certainty • Attention to detail — every cell matters LOOK Clean geometry, calm palette, nothing extra on screen. Dark and light themes — switch manually or follow system. WHO IT'S FOR For people who like puzzles calibrated to demand attention, not reflexes. Calm focus, not speed. Made for the 5–15 minutes between things — and effective as a regular memory workout. svyatoslavdp@gmail.com
