About

CalystrixCard Carnival

Features
Read full description

CalystrixCard Carnival is a collection of three original card puzzles, each with its own rule set. One idea holds them together: a deck of cards is a wonderful set of puzzle pieces, and a Joker is the piece that fits anywhere. Joker Orbit asks you to plant cards on three turning rings around a Joker star. Every card you plant makes the whole orrery drift, so you are always planning one step into a board that is about to move. Joker Bloom treats cards as seeds. Each suit grows its own way โ€” hearts spread sideways, diamonds run diagonally, spades creep downward, clubs send out a single runner. Four touching plots of one suit bloom and lock in. Plant in the wrong order and your garden strangles itself. Joker Prophecy shows you the future. You can see the next three cards and the exact square each one will land on. You cannot stop them โ€” but you can spend Joker tokens to redirect them, change their suit, or turn them wild. Then you satisfy the omens the stage demands. Every one of the 36 stages is built from a fixed seed, so a stage is the same puzzle for everybody, every time. Skill decides the outcome, not the shuffle. Features โ€ข Three original puzzles, 36 hand-authored stages, three stars to earn on each. โ€ข Joker Orbit โ€” a drifting three-ring orrery. Nudge a ring, spend a Freeze, align the rays. โ€ข Joker Bloom โ€” suit-directed growth on a 6ร—6 garden, with Joker Suns that revive everything nearby. โ€ข Joker Prophecy โ€” turn-based and untimed. See what is coming, then bend it with Joker tokens. โ€ข Versus (2โ€“6 players) โ€” the host picks one puzzle and stage, everyone solves an identical board, and the best score takes the round. Placing earns XP for everyone. โ€ข No internet, no accounts, no data leaving your device โ€” versus runs peer-to-peer over Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. โ€ข Failed attempts still earn XP, so progress only ever moves forward. โ€ข Progression: levels, XP, stars, solve streaks, achievements, a leaderboard, plus Stats and a full run History. โ€ข Sound and haptics, both switchable.

About

Sling Mouse Climb

Features
Read full description

Sling Mouse Climb is a jungle slingshot climber packed with three kinds of play. Stick to gullels high in the sky, drag back to aim, and fling your mouse upward through spikes, saws, and lava. Chase a best height in the endless climb, clear 50 star-rated tower levels, then switch to Trap puzzles or Vine Drop rope challenges. Earn coins, unlock wild skins in the shop, and keep climbing. Portrait fun, quick rounds, and that one-more-try feeling every time you fall. How to Play Land on a gullel and it becomes your launcher. Drag anywhere on the screen to pull back and aim โ€” trajectory dots show your arc โ€” then release to sling skyward. Stick to the next peg, platform, or rotating arm and fire again. Dodge hazards and donโ€™t fall off the bottom. Climb for height and stars, Trap the mouse on a hex board, or slash vines so cheese swings into your paws. Pick your mode from the menu and go. Benefits Fast sessions that fit a spare minute โ€” or a long climb for a new personal best. Three distinct modes so it never feels like one loop. Clear goals with stars, unlocks, and coins that carry across modes. Character skins to collect and show off in every mode. Smooth slingshot feel with readable aim preview so skill improves every run. No accounts, no clutter โ€” just tap, sling, and chase the next height.
