Five skies are listening. Tap, and a ring of halftone light leaves your finger and travels up. When it reaches a receiver, the receiver charges; charge one twice and it answers with a gold ring of its own. That is the whole verb. Everything else is the sky. Each of the five skies adds one quiet rule: - The Courtyard - clouds absorb what you send. - The Wind - the wind carries every wave sideways. Aim upwind. - The Night - the receivers are hidden until a wave strikes them. - The Harbor - the water mirrors your wave back at the sky. - The Chorus - only the chorus can reach the great eye. You get a small budget of taps per sky, so a sky is a short, readable puzzle rather than a test of speed. There is no timer and nothing to fail loudly at. A run takes about ten minutes. When you finish, the app draws you a card - live, by the same renderer that drew the sky you just played - and you can keep it, share it, or save it to Photos. Also inside: - An atlas of the five skies, with your best run for each and single-sky replay. - A gallery of the cards you kept. - Music, sound and haptics each with their own switch. Made to be quiet: - The game itself plays offline; the network is used for ads and attribution. - No account and no sign-in. Free, with no in-app purchases. - Ad supported: one interstitial after a full five-sky run, never during play. - Your runs, cards and settings stay on this device. The advertising and attribution SDKs collect device identifiers and ad data - see the privacy policy. The music is written for this app and synthesized live as you play, so no two runs sound quite the same. The scenery is AI-generated and was reviewed by hand; everything interactive - the waves, the receivers, the rings, the card - is drawn by code at runtime.

About

Wreckadia

Features
Read full description

Wreckadia is a pocket-sized voxel town that exists to be taken apart. A tilt-shift miniature city sits in front of you like a toy diorama. Pick one of eleven forces, aim, and watch the little pastel blocks buckle, topple and scatter. Buildings lose their supports and come down in stages; debris bounces and settles; residents make for the edge of the map and evacuate. When the dust clears, one tap rebuilds the whole town and you start again. ELEVEN FORCES Blast, Meteor, Smite, Tornado, Black Hole, Nuke, Earthquake, Flood, Thunderstorm, Meteor Shower and Orbital Beam. Six are aimed at a spot you choose; four sweep the whole town at once; every one of them has its own sound, colour flash and haptic feel. BUILT FOR ONE HAND Tap the town to strike, drag to orbit, pinch to zoom. A ten-pixel threshold keeps aiming and camera moves from fighting each other, and an aiming ring shows the blast radius before you commit. A power slider scales any aimed force from a nudge to a full hit. MADE TO LOOK LIKE A MODEL SHOOT A real-time tilt-shift pass, warm colour grading and a mood-reactive sky make the town read as a photographed miniature rather than a game level. Slow motion holds the moment a tower folds. RUNS ANYWHERE Three quality tiers with an automatic tuner that watches the frame rate and adjusts on its own, so older devices stay smooth. SHARE THE RUBBLE Once you pass fifteen percent, a share card composes the wreckage with your destruction figure and hands it to the system share sheet. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no sign-up and no in-app purchases. The town is generated on your device and your settings stay on it. Wreckadia is free and supported by a single full-screen ad shown when you rebuild the town; the ad and attribution partners it works with are listed in the privacy policy. Fictional town. No real people, places, or events are depicted.
