Moonmallow

Read full description

Your little monster lives between your fingers: stretch it wide to catch more candy, squeeze it thin to slip between the walls. Wide = greedy but exposed, thin = safe but hungry. The whole game lives inside that choice, a hundred times a minute. THE MOON ROAD 60 tracks across 6 worlds painted by shaders: the Sugar Hills, the Mirror Woods, the Midnight Sky, the Messy Marsh, the Heart of the Moon and the Sugar Cages. Real branching paths, a different goal on every track (precision, candy runs, golden gates, "no stopping", a little Crumb to escort...) and 3 stars to earn: finish it, nail the goal, do it with style. And it keeps growing: more worlds arrive regularly, already inside the app, opening up on their own with no update to install. That makes 105 tracks across 11 worlds in all. 14 MISCHIEVOUS BOSSES King Gloop spits sticky goo, the Mad Mirror flips your controls, the Lighteater turns off the light, the Glutton swallows your candy before it reaches you... Each with its own rules, all the way to the Great Hunger: a three-phase final boss. Nine of them are waiting right away, the other five arrive with the new worlds. THE MOON RUN Endless mode: no finish line, difficulty that climbs forever, one record to beat (and Moonbits earned on every run). SOMETHING EVERY DAY The Daily Challenge is the same track for the whole world, with win streaks, a recovery token and a 30-day calendar. Plus 3 fresh missions every day that make you replay the game in new ways. CHALLENGE A FRIEND A fresh track, one single code: send it to whoever you like, they run the very same track, and the higher score wins. In a Challenge the powers stay home: only your fingers count. LEADERBOARDS Who scores highest on the Daily Challenge, who lasts longest in the Moon Run, who has collected the most stars. Your phone keeps them, through Game Center, and they open only if you want them to: there is no account of ours anywhere. DRESS YOUR MONSTER 8 monsters (some unlock ONLY with stars, money can't buy them) and 16 accessories: bouncing crowns, fluttering scarves, one loyal firefly. The Monster Album is the diorama of your collection. MADE WITH CARE • 6 languages: English, Italian, French, German, Spanish, Japanese • Accessibility: reduce motion, and color assist for players who can't tell red from green • Two control modes: two fingers (pinch) or one finger • A Detail setting for older phones • Plays entirely OFFLINE: no account of ours, no ads, no data collected by us. Ever. The leaderboards, if you use them, go through Game Center, which belongs to your phone.

About

InkJump

Features
Read full description

InkJump is a one-touch endless climber built entirely from ink and paper — no color, ever. Your ink-blot slime bounces automatically between two walls; your only job is choosing the right moment to tap. A single tap sends it hopping upward to dodge whatever's about to scroll into its path — fixed obstacles on the walls, floating ones in between. Miss, and gravity takes over. The higher you climb, the faster everything moves. FEATURES Ā· One-touch controls — tap to hop, nothing else to learn Ā· Endless procedural climb — no levels, no ending, just how high you can go Ā· Difficulty scales with your score, starting calm and never staying that way Ā· Pure black-and-white ink-brush aesthetic, hand-lettered in a real calligraphy typeface Ā· Night mode — a second full palette, not just an inverted screen Ā· Every run is laid out differently, seeded fresh each time Ā· Local best score only — no accounts, no network, ever Ā· No ads, no in-app purchases, no pressure
