About

Neon Orbit

Features
Read full description

Rotate neon rings and match every incoming signal by color and shape before it lands. Each signal flies down a lane toward the active ring. Tap the left or right side of the screen to turn that ring, or hold still when the right segment is already in place. Cyan triangles, magenta squares, and yellow circles must meet their matching segment. Clear a ring to move inward, then clear the last ring to connect the core. Levels start with three rings and grow to seven as you advance through the Core Route. Signals get faster, more lanes open, and every tenth level is a Reactor Challenge. A mismatch costs one of your three attempts, so read each signal before you commit. FEATURES • 100 Core Route levels across 10 sectors • From three rings up to seven, with faster signals and more lanes • Fixed signal sequences, so every retry is learnable • A Reactor Challenge every tenth level • Infinite Reactor score chase with combos and shields, unlocked after level 100 • 29 neon themes to unlock with Orbit Credits or optional reward videos, plus one free starter theme • Guided tutorial, plus music, sound, and haptics settings Free to play with a banner ad and optional reward videos. No in-app purchases and no login. The game and interface are in English.
