Slimbo is a gentle physics game about a little green creature that grows toward candy. Tap to grow an eye. Each new eye links to its neighbours, and the links bend, pull and push like real wood. Build triangles and your creature stands tall; build a thin pole and it sags and topples. Reach every candy before you run out of eyes. • 190 hand-made levels in 10 colourful chapters • Real physics: stones roll, beams tip, rockers sway • One finger is enough: just tap • Stuck? Take five extra eyes and keep going • The game adapts to you: tough spots give a few spare eyes • After the last level the climb goes on • No timers: think as long as you like
