About

Barkoff

Features
Read full description

Five bosses. Ten seconds each. One microphone. Barkoff is a single-player boss ladder for your voice. Each fight lasts eight to ten seconds and is scored on two things: how FAST you bark and how LOUD. Speed counts for more โ€” anyone can shout, but holding two barks a second while a dog barks back is another matter. WHAT MAKES IT HARD Volume alone will not carry you. The meter weighs your bark rate above your volume, so a fight is a rhythm test with a loudness floor. Each boss denies you one of the two axes and dares you to win the other. THE FIVE โ€ข Pipsi โ€” small, fast, deeply annoying. Your warm-up. โ€ข Turbo Bublik โ€” a loaf with a motor. Out-shout him; you won't out-pace him. โ€ข DJ Havkins โ€” reads the room and adapts fastest. โ€ข Baron von Gavstein โ€” old money, enormous lungs. Beat him on speed. โ€ข MEGAHAV โ€” fast and loud. Good luck. Each stays locked until you beat the one before it. Medals record how convincingly you won. NO SPEECH RECOGNITION The app measures two numbers: how far a sound sits above the noise in your room, and how long it lasts. It cannot tell what you are saying and does not care what language you speak. SINGLE PLAYER, NO NETWORK No accounts, no leaderboards, no online opponents, and no network requests of any kind. Everything runs on your phone. PRIVACY The microphone is analysed live on device and discarded. Nothing is recorded, stored or transmitted. Ten seconds a fight. Your neighbours will still hear it.

About

Cat Magic Sort

Features
Read full description

Sort colorful water, one bottle at a time. MagicSort is a cat-themed puzzle game where thoughtful pours turn mixed colors into neatly sorted bottles. Tap a bottle, then choose an empty bottle or one with a matching top color and enough room. Plan your moves until each filled bottle holds a single color. There is no timer, so you can take your time and try different approaches. MAKE YOURSELF AT HOME - Explore 60 levels with colorful liquid, glass bottles, and cheerful cat artwork. - Learn the rules with optional tips in the first five levels. - Undo pours or restart a level when you want to try another route. Undo keeps any extra bottles you have added. - Resume your unfinished puzzle with automatic saves on your device. - Revisit unlocked levels and track your best move counts, with separate records for solo and assisted completions. A LITTLE EXTRA ROOM Each level starts with one free extra-bottle opportunity. After using it, you can choose to watch a rewarded ad to earn another bottle credit for that level. Tap Add Empty Bottle to spend the credit when you need it. Restarting a level does not restore spent credits. Rewarded ads require an internet connection and are subject to availability. PLAY YOUR WAY Turn on color aid symbols to help distinguish colors, reduce animations, and adjust sound effects, haptics, and tutorial tips in Settings. Available for iPhone and iPad in English, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Spanish. No account is required.
