Sobe

Before screens, every street in the world had the same arcade. A handful of stones. A chalk circle. A stick, a rope, a pocketful of bottle caps. The games had different names in every language — beştaş in Istanbul, jacks in Brooklyn, knucklebones in ancient Greece — but they were the same games. Nobody owned them. Everybody remembers them. Sobe is a pocket anthology of twelve of those games, rebuilt from scratch as polished, one-hand arcade runs for iPhone. THE GAMES • Tipcat (Çelik Çomak · Gilli Danda) — flip the stick, strike it mid-air, count the meters • Fivestones (Beştaş · Jacks) — toss, sweep, catch before it lands • Marbles (Misket · Ring Taw) — knuckle down and knock them out of the ring • Hopscotch (Seksek · Amarelinha) — one foot, steady rhythm, mind the pebble • Conkers — crack the rival's conker at the bottom of its swing • Pogs (Menko · Tazos) — slam the stack, keep what flips • Seven Stones (Yedi Kiremit · Lagori) — bring the tower down, three balls at a time • Knucklebones (Aşık · Shagai) — take the golden king, wake no guards • Stone Skipping (Ducks & Drakes · Mizu Kiri) — flat and fast, count the bounces • Quoits (Horseshoes) — read the wind, land the ring • Bottle Caps (Chapas) — flick through the gates, hold the road • Jump Rope — load your legs, match the rope, survive the speed-up REAL PHYSICS, REAL FEEL Every game runs on a deterministic physics engine tuned for touch: drag-back flicks with a live power gauge, hold-to-charge jumps, timing windows you can read on screen. In Stone Skipping you can even throw by flicking your phone — a real wrist snap, measured by the motion sensors, on-device only. AN ANTHOLOGY, NOT JUST AN ARCADE Each game carries its culture card: where it comes from, what children call it on five continents, and the house rules — the vinegar-soaked conkers, the "keepsies" marbles, the pebble tossed backwards over a shoulder. Beat your best and share it as a golden-hour street poster. FAIR BY DESIGN • Every game is free to play, every day • One optional purchase unlocks everything, forever — including future games • No ads. No subscriptions. No coins, gems or timers. • No accounts, no tracking. Your scores live on your phone. • A single optional daily notification — off by default, explained before we ask The street is still there. It fits in your pocket now. Support URL: https://hahmetgezgin.github.io/sobe/support.html

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Orbit at none against Sobe's 1. Orbit also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 26.0). Sobe's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price there is nothing between them.
