Slimbo is a gentle physics game about a little green creature that grows toward candy. Tap to grow an eye. Each new eye links to its neighbours, and the links bend, pull and push like real wood. Build triangles and your creature stands tall; build a thin pole and it sags and topples. Reach every candy before you run out of eyes. • 190 hand-made levels in 10 colourful chapters • Real physics: stones roll, beams tip, rockers sway • One finger is enough: just tap • Stuck? Take five extra eyes and keep going • The game adapts to you: tough spots give a few spare eyes • After the last level the climb goes on • No timers: think as long as you like

Draw the path. Save the runner. Inkleap is a one-finger drawing runner. Your stickman runs on its own; you draw the way. Bridge the gaps, draw over the spikes, hold a shield over falling rocks and block the arrows. Every line counts. RUN FARTHER, SEE MORE The world changes as you go: new skies and landscapes roll in the farther you run. Beat your best distance and share your record with friends. SOMETHING NEW EVERY DAY • Daily Course: one course a day, the same for everyone. Learn it and earn all three stars. • Gold Rush: sixty seconds on a road paved with coins. • Events that take turns through the week: Moon Run with low gravity, Night Run in the dark with glowing lines, and Meteor Shower, where your shields knock meteors away. • Run Together: your friend runs right behind you, and your lines have to carry you both. THE GREAT ESCAPE Pirates have you cornered on a clifftop! Hold off their arrows, jump into the gorge, cross the shark-filled sea and run the beach under cannon fire to reach the jungle. Five stages, and each day the same course for everyone. BUILD YOUR VILLAGE Spend the coins you earn to build your camp piece by piece, and pick the style and color of every building. When a place is finished, take a journey run to the next one: the Island, Underwater, the Snowy Mountain, the Moon Base and Neon City. Every place you finish gives you a new runner and a new world, and along the way a friend moves in to run with you. WORKSHOP Upgrade your pen, ink, shield, coin magnet and more. Upgrades help in Gold Rush, the weekly events, Run Together and the Great Escape. Record runs and the Daily Course stay pure skill. MAKE IT YOURS Collect 15 runners, 9 ink colors and 12 worlds. MISSIONS AND REWARDS Three new missions every day, a daily reward and 10 tiered achievements. Inkleap is free to play. It contains ads and optional in-app purchases. No Ads removes the ads between runs.
