Swipe Blast
Read full descriptionHide full description
Every level is a picture made of arrows. Clear them all to solve it. Swipe Blast is a bright, relaxing arrow puzzle with a twist you can actually see. The arrows are not scattered on a grey grid — they are arranged into shapes. A heart. A tree. A crown. Tap an arrow and it blasts off the board in the direction it points. Tap the wrong one and nothing happens: it is jammed, blocked by the arrows around it. Sounds simple. It stops being simple somewhere around level twenty. HOW TO PLAY - Tap any arrow to send it flying off the board - An arrow only leaves if its path is clear - Free the blockers first, then work your way inward - Remove every arrow to complete the level WHY YOU WILL KEEP PLAYING - Levels shaped like pictures, not random grids. You always see what you are solving - One tap is the whole control scheme. Nothing to learn, nothing to configure - Logic, not luck. Every level has a real solution, and you can find it - Hundreds of levels that grow from a gentle warm-up into genuine head-scratchers WHEN YOU GET STUCK - The magnifier points you to a move that works - Three lives per level, so there is room to experiment - Take as long as you need. Nothing is counting down BUILT FOR REAL LIFE - No timers and no pressure. Think for two seconds or two minutes - Works offline, so it plays on the train, on a flight, or with no signal at all - Calm neon visuals and soft, satisfying effects. Easy on the eyes at night Two minutes in a queue or an hour on the sofa, Swipe Blast fits either. Start with a simple heart, work your way up, and see how many pictures you can clear. Download Swipe Blast and start blasting arrows.

Two shaded cells in every region. Pairs never touch. That is the whole rulebook, and it stays fresh for a thousand levels. Hexpair is the Norinori logic puzzle on a hexagonal board. Calm, tactile, and nothing on the puzzle screen but the puzzle. THE RULES • Every region gets exactly two shaded cells • Shaded cells form pairs, and a pair may cross region borders • Two pairs never touch edge to edge Hex makes the rules purer than the classic square version. No diagonals, no exceptions, no fine print. THREE LADDERS • 6×6, 8×8 and 10×10 boards, each with its own ladder • Over a thousand levels per size • A gentle ramp to start, then difficulty that rises and falls so no stretch becomes a grind • Everyone plays the same levels in the same order, so you can compare notes DAILY CHALLENGE • One new puzzle per size every day, the same for everyone in the world • One attempt, timed, ranked on Game Center leaderboards • Unlocks after 20 solved levels of that size, so you arrive ready BUILT FOR THINKING • Tap to mark a cell empty, double tap to shade it, drag to mark many at once • Free hints and unlimited undo on ladder levels • Learn the game in four guided levels • Progress syncs over iCloud between iPhone and iPad • The ladder plays offline NO INTERRUPTIONS No banners. No interstitials. No timers pushing you along. Take as long as you like. FREE AND PRO The first 100 levels on 6×6, 50 on 8×8 and 25 on 10×10 are free. The daily challenge and hints are free for everyone. To go further, buy Pro once and every level on every ladder opens for good, or watch an optional ad now and then to unlock the next batch. Nothing you unlock ever locks again. Download Hexpair and solve your first pair in under a minute. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
