GRIP is a one-touch survival game built around one rule: keep holding. Touch and hold to start. Drag to guide the glowing player through waves of neon obstacles. Let go for too long and the run ends. Slip for a moment and you get a short warning window to recover but the pressure never fully disappears. Near misses are the heart of GRIP. Squeeze through tight gaps, skim past danger and chain close calls to activate your shield. While shielded, you can knock obstacles away and buy precious seconds. Your score is simple: survival time. Every run is a fight to last one second longer than before.
