About

Voxel Orbit

Features
Read full description

A toy sculpture floats in space, and every one hides a surprise inside. Color-coded UFOs wait in your hangar. Tap one and it lifts off, circles the sculpture on a glowing ring and blasts every cube of its own color it can see. Your job: pick the right UFO and turn the sculpture so each one finds its color before its tank runs dry. TAP, SPIN, BLAST • Tap any UFO in the hangar to launch it. You choose which color goes next. Prefer to watch? Switch on AUTO and they launch themselves. • Drag anywhere to rotate the sculpture in 3D. Bring the hidden side round and a starving UFO opens fire at once. • Every UFO carries exactly enough ammo for its color. Feed it well and it flies home clean. • A UFO that ends its lap with ammo left lands on a hangar pad. Tap it to send it straight back up when its color comes into view. PRESS TURBO • Charge the meter with every pop, then hit TURBO: four times the fire, a machine-gun rake, the whole ring lights up. • Every saucer carries two side blasters, and every pop bursts into crackling cubes. • Clear most of a color and its saucer rakes the last cubes in one rapid volley. Clear the last cubes of a layer and the rest goes in one wave. • Boosters: Recall, Turbo Charge and Meteor, bought with coins you earn in play. 60 LEVELS, 60 SURPRISE SCULPTURES • Every sculpture hides a surprise: pop the outside to find what is inside. An egg hatches a chick, a galleon hides its treasure, a castle hides a dragon. • Whales, robots, dinosaurs, dragons, castles and more, up to a grand finale: a dragon guarding a golden trophy. • Follow your path on the HOME map, sector by sector. • Three stars for skill, not speed: how many UFOs landed clean, never how fast you were. MADE TO RELAX • No timers, no lives, no energy. Play a level in a minute or sit with a big one. • The sculpture slowly turns like a little planet while you think. • Chunky toy-box look: soft plastic cubes, a glowing orbit ring, a hangar full of little saucers, confetti when you win. PLAYS FAIR • Free to play. No ads and no purchases in this version. • No account, no sign-in. Your progress stays on your phone. • Works offline. Portrait, one hand, on the couch or on the bus. Tap a UFO. Turn the sculpture. Watch it disappear one color at a time.
