Take every node. Win the war. NODE WARS is a fast, tactical conquest game. Every base you own produces troops each second. Drag from your base to any target to send an attack, take neutral nodes to grow your income, and break the enemy before their army outgrows yours. Matches are short, decisions are quick, and one bad move loses you the map. FOUR WORLDS, 80 LEVELS Fight through Cyber Genesis, Cosmic War, Volcanic Core and the Epic Void. Every world raises the difficulty and changes the battlefield layout. Earn up to three stars per level by finishing with more of the map under your control. TACTICAL POWER-UPS - Speed Boost: double production and attack speed for 25 seconds - Freeze Bomb: freeze every enemy node for 10 seconds - Shield: make one of your nodes untouchable for 20 seconds - Nuke: wipe out most of the troops inside an enemy stronghold BUILD YOUR EMPIRE Spend the gold you earn on a permanent Production Speed upgrade that makes your bases pump out troops faster, from one troop per second down to one every half second. Unlock six visual themes, open chests, complete missions and climb from Bronze to Diamond rank. PLAY ANYWHERE No account, no sign-up, no waiting. Your progress is saved on your device and the campaign runs without an internet connection. Full Turkish and English support.

Potionary

Sort the potions. Fill the book. Potionary is a colour-sort puzzle with an alchemist's notebook behind it. Pour glowing liquid from flask to flask until each one holds a single colour — and every few puzzles, a new recipe appears in your Alchemy Journal. WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT • Every level is proven solvable by a solver before you ever see it. No impossible boards, ever. • Forty hand-built opening levels that teach one idea at a time, then a measured difficulty curve for as long as you want to keep going. • An Alchemy Journal that turns the stars you earn into a collection worth finishing. MECHANICS THAT ARRIVE WHEN YOU ARE READY • Hidden potions that reveal themselves only at the top of a flask • Covered flasks that unlock as you finish others • Undo, Shuffle, Extra Flask and Hint — introduced one at a time MADE TO BE PLAYED ANYWHERE • Fully offline. No account, no login, no sign-up. • No lives and no energy timer. Being stuck is a puzzle to solve, not a wall to wait behind — Restart is always free. • Every bottle, star and drop of liquid is drawn in code — there is not a single image file in the game. Free to play, with optional ads and optional rewards.
