Barkoff
Read full descriptionHide 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 ā 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 ⢠Pipsi ā small, fast, deeply annoying. Your warm-up. ⢠Turbo Bublik ā a loaf with a motor. Out-shout him; you won't out-pace him. ⢠DJ Havkins ā reads the room and adapts fastest. ⢠Baron von Gavstein ā old money, enormous lungs. Beat him on speed. ⢠MEGAHAV ā 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.
Pin Blast Rush

Pin Blast Rush is a quick, satisfying block puzzle where one smart shot can clear half the board. HOW IT PLAYS ⢠Pull back to aim and let the needle fly ā it pops the block it hits. ⢠Blocks above fall down into the gap. ⢠Groups of 3 or more same-color blocks pop on their own, and the chain keeps going. ⢠Every combo wave gives you an extra needle. Plan well and your needles never run out. MORE THAN MATCH-3 ⢠Match 4 to create Lightning, 5ā6 for a Bomb, 7+ for a Rainbow block. ⢠Stone blocks need two hits ā or a combo right next to them. ⢠Unlock the Fire Needle: it pierces every block in its path, even stones. ⢠8 board styles: Cascade, Pyramid, Towers, Mirror, Valley and more. ⢠9 themed worlds, from Frost Land and Honey Hive to Deep Sea and Lavender Fields. ⢠Beat the board in the fewest shots to earn the Master crown. PIN WHEEL ⢠A mini game that unlocks at level 10: pin the blocks on a spinning wheel, but don't hit your own pins. ⢠Every stage you clear adds a block to the Weekly Picture. Finish it before the week ends to keep it in your collection. KEEP THE RUSH GOING ⢠Back-to-back combo shots build a Hot Streak multiplier. ⢠Clear boards in a row to grow your streak bonus. ⢠When the board is almost done, Final Rush fires the last shots for you. ⢠Endless boards that get harder as your score grows ā level up and unlock new styles. COMPETE ⢠Game Center leaderboards for Total Score, Longest Streak and Pin Wheel. ⢠Take on the whole world or just your friends. ⢠Play offline, no account needed. ⢠Free to play with ads.
