ClockmakersBench vs Sunshard

Pull up a stool at the Clockmaker's Bench. This is a calm, hands-on idle game about the slow craft of horology — winding escapements, seating gears into half-built pocket watches, and listening to a whole shelf of finished mechanisms tick away. Start with a bare bench. Tap to wind the mainspring; each turn seats another gear into the movement on your workbench. Finish a watch and place it on the ticking shelf, where it runs on its own and earns coin tick after tick — even while the app is closed. As coin flows in, master finer movements. Unlock the moonphase, then the chronograph, the gravity-defying tourbillon, and finally the perpetual calendar — each grade more intricate, more valuable, and more beautiful on the shelf than the last. Patrons come calling, too. Accept a commission and one of your finished watches auto-ships to its owner overnight, paying coin plus patina — a prestige currency you spend on permanent polish that lifts your whole workshop. What you'll do: - Tap to wind and watch gears click into place - Fill a ticking shelf that earns coin passively, even offline - Unlock five complication grades, from time-only to perpetual calendar - Fulfil patron commissions for coin and patina - Upgrade your winding power, automatic winder, shelf, and commission slots - Polish your workshop with patina for a permanent yield bonus Clockmaker's Bench is free to play and supported by occasional ads. You can watch an optional short video for a 30-minute taste of doubled yield, or unlock Master Horologist once to remove ads, double all coin and patina forever, and add two extra commission slots. No subscription — a single purchase, restorable on any device. No timers nagging you, no fail states, no rush. Just the quiet satisfaction of a well-built mechanism and a shelf that keeps on ticking. Pull up a stool and start winding.

Sunshard is a one-thumb arcade game about burning crystals with sunlight. Drag your thumb along the see-through strip at the bottom and the sun spot moves like a cursor on a touchpad, anywhere on the field. Crystals chime as they shatter, with a light vibration in your hand. There are no ads, and it plays in nine languages. HOW A RUN GOES A run is one day, and a day lasts a minute. Your Sunlight fades as the sun goes down, and every crystal you burn costs a little more in glare. Break what you can, then spend the shards on the upgrade tree and go again. The runs are short; the progress stays. WHAT IS IN THE GAME • Seventeen kinds of crystal in five sizes, all of them on the move, each with its own trick: amethyst splits, sunstone gives Sunlight back, emerald heals its neighbors, lodestone pulls every shard home, ruby bursts, obsidian glares, sapphire shields, the drifter runs away, diamond shrugs off part of each hit, prism doubles your damage, slivers swim in schools, amber drops a rarer currency, pearls roll fast and pay triple, urchins crawl toward your sun spot, constellations wind across the field and pay a bonus broken whole, and twin moons circle each other. • Six regions, each with its own ground and light, from sunlit sands to a sky of glittering ice. • Six Hearts, giant geodes you call when you choose. One splits into four, one heals itself, one sends out shockwaves, one hides behind guards, and the last does it all. A Heart that gets away keeps its cracks. • An upgrade tree that grows out from the sun: more than a hundred nodes, paid in four currencies, opening branch by branch. Every node shows the number before and after you buy. • Sunwings, butterflies of light that burn crystals on their own, and an Observatory whose research runs while the app is open. • Twelve sun sigils that each change how a run plays, and cost something for it. Only a few can be worn at once, and the best choice changes from region to region. Six bridge nodes join two branches and reward buying both. • Bring down a Heart and choose one of three blessings, yours for good. • Meteor showers, rainbows that double your shards, and eclipses that change the rules. • Rimmed crystals from the third region: rich, hard, fast or giant. • Break ten in a second and a combo starts; every break in it pays more. • Every material sounds different, from the chime of glass to the crack of obsidian, and a critical hit, a ruby burst and a falling Heart each have a vibration of their own. • After the last Heart, Region ∞: floor after floor, with your best kept. • After the last Heart, a New Sun: start over with the Star Chart's stars, kept for good, and go further each time. • A daily challenge, the same for everyone that day, plus daily quests, fifteen achievements and a collection to fill. • The Sun Mine makes shards while you are away. NO ADS No ads, no random items, no energy timers, no subscription. Restore purchases is in the shop. YOUR PROGRESS, ON YOUR PHONE Progress is saved on your phone, the game plays offline, and no account is needed.
