Pick a shooter, match the color, and pop them all! Pop Loop! is a bright, easygoing color puzzle. A wooden pit is packed with colorful balloons, and it is your job to clear every one. Choose a shooter in the matching color, fire away, and watch the balloons grow and pop until the pit is empty. HOW TO PLAY > Pick a shooter from the bottom lines. Each one comes in a color with its own capacity. > Shooters hit the balloons of the same color in the pit > Every hit makes those balloons grow and count down until they pop > Clear all the balloons in the pit to finish the level WHAT'S INSIDE > Bright colors and satisfying, chain-reaction pops > Easy to pick up, with levels that get more clever as you go > Hand-made levels to work through > A relaxing tropical vibe that is still a real challenge > No timers and no pressure, just popping at your own pace Every level is a small puzzle to figure out: read the pit, choose the right shooter, and pop your way to a clean board. Once you start, it is hard to stop. Think you can clear them all? Download Pop Loop! and give it a try.
Carve Rush
Read full descriptionHide full description
Carve The Log is a satisfying 3D wood carving puzzle where every chisel counts. Tap colored chisels, place them into the holder rack, and match them with the exposed rings on the log. Each chisel has limited carving power, so choose the right order, manage your slots, and clear every layer before the rack gets stuck. Carve colorful rings from outside to inside, reveal new layers, solve tricky blockers, and complete each wooden object piece by piece. Simple to play, satisfying to carve, and clever to master.
