About

Sunforge

Read full description

A block made of visible mini blocks slides over your tower. Tap to drop it. Whatever hangs past the edge shears off and tumbles away โ€” and only the mini blocks that STAY are added to your sum. Hit the sun's target exactly and your streak smelts into a gold ingot: tower repaired, combo climbing. Go one past it and the streak scorches black. That's the whole cruel deal of Sunforge: landing exactly the number you need often means hanging cells over the edge on purpose. You trade tower width for the sum โ€” or sacrifice the sum to stay wide. Width is life. The sun doesn't care which you choose. ASCENT โ€” THE CLIMB โ€ข Three suns, ramping speed, forge targets that grow with your altitude โ€ข Tactical discards for hopeless blocks โ€” earned back by forging โ€ข An eclipse sky that darkens as you rise, from sun-bleached sand to black totality โ€ข Milestone stingers every ten floors THE BLOCKS THAT BREAK THE RULES โ€ข The diamond block: land it perfectly centered and your block regrows to full starting width โ€” the comeback the sun occasionally grants โ€ข The burgundy block: cursed, and it comes in fast. It never joins the tower โ€” let it fly past and it costs nothing; touch it down and it burns away every mini block it covers. Watch the NEXT chip for the warning. MIRAGE โ€” ZEN, UNTIL THE STORM Pure precision stacking, no sums โ€” but every so often a storm sways your tower, and honest physics decides what stands: if the weight above any edge leans too far, it topples. Stack centered and the wind finds nothing to take. LEARN BY PLAYING Two short playable lessons open on first launch โ€” one for Ascent (stacking, the forge sum, the diamond, the cursed block) and one for Mirage (stacking and the storm). Each is skippable in one tap and replayable from the menu. PLAY HANDS-FREE (OPTIONAL) Turn on Sound to Drop and a clap, a tap, or a short word drops the block โ€” no tapping the screen. It's an accessibility option, off until you enable it. The microphone is used on your device for loudness only; nothing is recorded, saved, or sent anywhere, and the game plays exactly the same by tap. NOTHING BEHIND THE CURTAIN โ€ข No ads, no accounts, no in-app purchases โ€ข Zero network calls โ€” works in airplane mode forever โ€ข No tracking and no third-party code; your best score never leaves your device โ€ข The only permission is the microphone, and only if you turn on Sound to Drop Built natively in SwiftUI and SpriteKit for iPhone and iPad, iOS 17+, with synthesized audio, haptics, and a hard-edged desert-forge look. The sun is watching. Forge something.
