About

Paper Squadron

Read full description

The pencil-and-paper plane game from your school days, now played against the whole world. Each player hides a 10-cell paper plane on a 12x12 grid. You take turns calling coordinates to hunt it down, and the first to destroy the enemy plane wins. But every plane has one hidden CRITICAL POINT: hit it and the whole plane goes down instantly. HOW IT PLAYS • Place your plane in 8 headings: 4 straight and 4 diagonal • Choose your own critical point and hide it where nobody looks • A body hit lets you shoot again, a miss ends your turn • Every turn lasts exactly 10 seconds ITEMS • Radar: reports the distance to the enemy plane, hot or cold • Bomb: a 5-cell cross blast • Armor: blocks exactly one shot • Maneuver: move your plane and wipe every clue the enemy gathered. The wounds stay with the airframe though, because manoeuvring hides you, it never heals you. ONLINE • Create a room with a message, or join one from the lobby • A versus screen counts 3-2-1 when your opponent arrives • Ranking with no sign-up: plus 1 point per win, minus 1 per loss • Top 10 leaderboards, global and per country, with a winners' podium FAIR PLAY When a match ends both boards are revealed: every hit and every manoeuvre is on display, so nobody can hide how they won. NO FRICTION • No account, no email • Offline play against three AI difficulty levels • 14 languages • Small download, runs on modest phones Hand-drawn on graph paper, learnable in 30 seconds, tense right down to the last shot.

About

Sort Parade!

Read full description

Welcome to Sort Parade, a puzzle about sorting cards by what they are. The board is a mix of themes — feathers, minerals, penguins, astronauts. Move a card onto the collection card for its theme, fill it up, and that whole theme leaves the board. Cards below slide up to fill the gap. Clear every theme on the board to finish the level. The closer two cards look, the more careful you should be. A striped butterfly and a striped gift, a robot and a piece of space gear — some cards take a second look before you know where they belong. A wrong drop still costs you a move, so look before you sort. Features • Over 600 levels, each with a new set of themes to sort • 3 holding slots — park a card that has nowhere to go yet • Hidden cards — move the card beside one to reveal what it is • Hint, Undo and Magnet — three items for when you get stuck • No timer — take your time, just watch your move count • Simple drag controls, easy to play with one hand One quick level or a long session. A card puzzle that rewards picking the right order, never rushing you. Start sorting with Sort Parade today!
