Rogue Mini Explorer is a compact sci-fi survival shooter built for fast mobile runs. Pilot a lone explorer across a hostile dust wasteland, collect energy, upgrade your weapons, and survive waves of strange alien creatures. Each run grows from a simple blaster start into a screen-filling build of lasers, mines, orbit shields, rapid-fire weapons, and passive upgrades. The controls are simple: move, dodge, collect, and choose upgrades when you level up. The pressure rises minute by minute, forcing you to keep moving while your build evolves into a stronger survival machine. Features: - Fast one-handed survival runs - Pixel-art sci-fi wasteland atmosphere - Automatic weapons, mines, shields, lasers, and explosive upgrades - Permanent progression between runs - Offline play with no account required - Designed for short sessions and repeatable roguelike builds

Grab your stick — it's fiesta time! Piñatopia is a joyful cartoon piñata-smashing clicker. Tap a piñata, watch the candy fly, and spend your loot on shinier upgrades and a whole crew of helpers who whack away while you sip your horchata. TAP & SMASH Every tap sends candy flying. Chase golden piñatas and speedy hummingbirds before they escape — those specials are yours to earn with your own fingers, not your bots. HIRE A FIESTA CREW Kids with bats, luchadores, mariachi, confetti cannons, a sugar golem and a wind-up monkey — a visible army that smashes piñatas even while you're away. Come back to a pile of candy! BOSS LLAMA BATTLES Giant piñata llamas aren't candy bags — they fight back. Tap their glowing weak points for massive hits, shatter candy-glass shields, and stagger them into a beating. Skill, not just spam. START A NEW FIESTA (PRESTIGE) Hit a wall? Start a New Fiesta: reset for permanent Star upgrades and blast back through the tiers twice as fast. The Star Ladder shows exactly what each boss unlocks. COLLECT COSTUME SKINS Dress your piñatas as a Night Avenger, a Disco Burro, a Cosmic Candy Overlord and more — 9 skins across 3 themed sets. Every skin you own is a PERMANENT candy multiplier, and completing a set stacks an extra bonus. Collect them all! EVERY DAY IS A PARTY - Daily quests with diamond rewards - Candy rain and mini-piñata swarms mid-session - A lucky wheel spin after every boss - Manually-fired powers: Super Tap, Tap Frenzy, Golden Bait PLAYS YOUR WAY Short toilet-gaming sessions or long fiesta marathons — Piñatopia respects your time. No timers forcing you back, no fail states, ever. Available in English, Polish, Russian, Korean, Spanish, French and Japanese. Free to play, with optional ads and in-app purchases.
