About

TraceLine!

Features
Read full description

One line. One finger. Don't lift, don't cross. TraceLine is a game of nerve and planning. Press your finger to the screen and a line follows it. Fill enough of the board before the clock runs out - but the moment you lift your finger, the round is over. Cross your own line, and it's over too. Every level is a race against your own path. The more you draw, the less room you leave yourself. Plan too little and you strand yourself in a corner with nowhere legal to go. Five worlds, each taking away something you relied on. Magnets bend your line off course. Fuses set it alight and send a flame racing down it - reach a shelter first. The lights go out and you draw by a torch on your fingertip. And hunters lock onto your line and close in, so you can't just dodge - you have to lose them. Collect glowing pips for bonus points along the way, and grab a shield to deflect the next hit. FEATURES - One-finger controls. Anyone can play it. Nobody can relax. - 50 hand-tuned levels across five worlds - Endless mode and Free Play - Collectible pips and shields - Four visual themes: Neon, Clay, Retro and Watercolour - Three stars per level - clear it, clear it fast, clear it clean - Game Center leaderboard and achievements - Now on Apple Watch - steer with the Digital Crown or your finger - No in-app purchases. No account. No sign-up. The game plays offline. Ads are non-personalised, so they don't track you and need no account.
