One Cut gives you a shape and a target. Draw one line across it. The closer the two pieces are to the target, the better the grade: PERFECT, GREAT, CLOSE or MISS. It starts at 50 / 50. It does not stay there. HOW DEEP CAN YOU GO • The shapes start to spin, drift, breathe and shrink • Bombs land on the shape: cut beside them, never through them • Fog, mud that bends your line, an armored edge, lights that go out • New rules and hazards unlock as you go deeper, and they start to stack • Go deep enough and there is no end, only higher scores WAYS TO PLAY • Classic: stage after stage, until your lives run out • Time Attack: race the clock; a PERFECT adds time, a MISS takes it away • Daily: a new sequence every day, the same for everyone, and a streak to keep EARNED BY PLAYING • Bonus rounds: Blade Rush and Double Cut • Helpers you win in play: guide, freeze, slow time, slow motion, an extra life • Goals that unlock new blades and music • Boxes that fill as you play and open into new looks for the game Boxes are earned only by playing. They are never sold, for money or for shards. FAIR TO PLAY Nothing you buy changes your score. Ads are rewarded ads you choose to watch plus an occasional short break between runs; there are no banners. Remove Ads is one purchase and takes the breaks away for good. Shards, the game's currency, come from goals, from optional ads or from shard packs. No account, no sign-up.
