About

Gate Rush 3D

Features
Read full description

One knight. A thousand levels. Every gate doubles your army or destroys it. Gate Rush 3D is a one-thumb runner about arithmetic under pressure. Gates rush at you in pairs and you steer into one of them: triple your squad or add twelve, clone your crowd or take a shield, more damage or a faster rate before the boss. Choose well and a single knight becomes an army. Choose the halving gate and you reach the battle too small to win. RUN, GROW, CONQUER Drag left or right. Your squad runs in formation behind you and squeezes into single file when the bridge narrows. Read the gates early, keep the numbers climbing, and arrive with more knights than the crowd waiting for you. WHAT YOU GET • 1000 handcrafted levels across twenty realms, each with its own sky, stone and skyline • Math gates that decide everything: add, multiply, divide, clone, shield, mystery • Crowd battles settled by the numbers you brought, not by luck • 100 bosses whose attack patterns multiply as you climb • Eight dodgeable hazards, from swinging hammers to collapsing floors • A finish ramp that pays up to five times the coins • Upgrades, skins, capes, crowns, trails and whole realms to unlock • Daily missions, a daily chest, login and win streaks, and a free lucky spin • Portrait play, no account, and a campaign that works offline Free to play with ads. Rewarded ads are optional and always tell you what you get before you watch. Built by Chand Studios.

About

Pondkeeper

Features
Read full description

Pondkeeper is a relaxing offline fishing game about timing, control, and the thrill of a bite. Cast your line near the green zone to earn a better setup, then watch the water for a fish to take the bait. When the fish strikes, hold the left and right controls to guide the needle through the green zone. Stay steady to fill the catch ring—but drift away and progress drains faster. Every pond has its own target list and score requirement. Catch the marked fish, manage different fighting styles, and earn enough points to unlock the next challenge. FEATURES • Handcrafted pond challenges • 5 fish types with distinct movement and difficulty • Casting timing that affects each attempt • A quick, tactile reel-in challenge • Multi-fish objectives and score-based progression • Offline single-player play • No account, ads, purchases, or network connection required A quiet lake. A lively line. Keep the needle green and bring the catch home.
