Last Mantis

THE GARDEN IS FULL OF BUGS. YOU ARE THE LAST MANTIS. They come from every side: maggots, beetles, wasps, spiders. You run, you strike, you grow. And when the pack closes in, you stop time. STOP TIME, THEN CUT Fill the blue bar with kills. Tap it whenever you want and the world freezes. Now draw your path with your finger: curves, loops, hooks, straight through the thickest part of the swarm. Let go and the mantis races along your line and tears apart everything on it. GROW WITH EVERY LEVEL Collect crystals, pick from three cards after every wave. Orbs that circle you. Chain lightning. A swarm of flies that becomes fireflies, then wasps. A shadow that strikes behind your back. Longer arms, sharper blades, a wider swath. MOLT INTO SOMETHING WORSE At the right moment you shed your skin. Become the ice mantis and freeze what touches you, or the fire mantis and leave a burning trail behind. Your old shell stays behind as bait. TEN LEVELS, THEN ENDLESS Every level has its own ground, its own bugs and its own final wave. Stars you earn make the next mantis stronger from the start. After level ten it never stops. NO ACCOUNT. NO LOGIN. Your progress stays on your device. How long does the last mantis last?

About

Voxel Orbit

Features
Read full description

A toy sculpture floats in space, and every one hides a surprise inside. Color-coded UFOs wait in your hangar. Tap one and it lifts off, circles the sculpture on a glowing ring and blasts every cube of its own color it can see. Your job: pick the right UFO and turn the sculpture so each one finds its color before its tank runs dry. TAP, SPIN, BLAST • Tap any UFO in the hangar to launch it. You choose which color goes next. Prefer to watch? Switch on AUTO and they launch themselves. • Drag anywhere to rotate the sculpture in 3D. Bring the hidden side round and a starving UFO opens fire at once. • Every UFO carries exactly enough ammo for its color. Feed it well and it flies home clean. • A UFO that ends its lap with ammo left lands on a hangar pad. Tap it to send it straight back up when its color comes into view. PRESS TURBO • Charge the meter with every pop, then hit TURBO: four times the fire, a machine-gun rake, the whole ring lights up. • Every saucer carries two side blasters, and every pop bursts into crackling cubes. • Clear most of a color and its saucer rakes the last cubes in one rapid volley. Clear the last cubes of a layer and the rest goes in one wave. • Boosters: Recall, Turbo Charge and Meteor, bought with coins you earn in play. 60 LEVELS, 60 SURPRISE SCULPTURES • Every sculpture hides a surprise: pop the outside to find what is inside. An egg hatches a chick, a galleon hides its treasure, a castle hides a dragon. • Whales, robots, dinosaurs, dragons, castles and more, up to a grand finale: a dragon guarding a golden trophy. • Follow your path on the HOME map, sector by sector. • Three stars for skill, not speed: how many UFOs landed clean, never how fast you were. MADE TO RELAX • No timers, no lives, no energy. Play a level in a minute or sit with a big one. • The sculpture slowly turns like a little planet while you think. • Chunky toy-box look: soft plastic cubes, a glowing orbit ring, a hangar full of little saucers, confetti when you win. PLAYS FAIR • Free to play. No ads and no purchases in this version. • No account, no sign-in. Your progress stays on your phone. • Works offline. Portrait, one hand, on the couch or on the bus. Tap a UFO. Turn the sculpture. Watch it disappear one color at a time.
