Build a tower of blocks. When six of the same kind touch, they turn to gold. Only gold counts as height. Tap to drop the sliding block. It lands right where its shadow is. Put blocks next to others of the same material, and at six they melt into gold that runs down into the lowest gaps. The blocks stay in the tower as gold, so it keeps growing. A block with nothing under it falls off, and above 10 m that costs a heart. Making gold wins one back. Lose all three and the tower topples. You can save it with Nuggets, or let the top half fall and climb back up. It's the same tower every time you play. Also in the game: • Six golds start a Gold Rush. For five seconds every block you drop turns to gold, and tapping fast sets off a Frenzy. • Balloons carry Nuggets, hearts, bombs and presents. Drop a block through one to pop it. • More than a hundred block friends join as your tower climbs, and your blocks wear them. • Climb past real heights, from a house to Mount Everest and up to where jets fly. Each pays Nuggets the first time. • New pieces turn up as you climb, like a ball that rolls into gaps and a rainbow block that matches anything. • Your tower counts for your country and your state. The leaderboard stacks up every player's tower as it stands right now, so climb together, see whose skyline stands tallest, and see where your own tower ranks among everyone's. You earn Nuggets by making gold, and the shop sells more. It also sells Patron, which lets a toppled tower keep two thirds instead of half and doubles your daily gifts. Buying anything is optional, and nothing for sale is random. The game has no ads and no account. It sends anonymous stats about how you play, which you can turn off in Settings. The leaderboard gets only your tower's height and a random ID, and you can leave it in Settings. To see which of our own ads on Facebook and Instagram bring players in, it reports installs, two early milestones and purchases to Meta, and it asks before using your device's advertising identifier.

Read full description

An Owl's World is a 3D platform game about a small voxel owl and a very long way home. Steer with the left joystick, tap JUMP to cross the gaps, and hop from island to island across a sky full of floating worlds. A CAMPAIGN THAT KEEPS GROWING HARDER Twenty chapters and 150 courses take you from the wide, friendly islands of The Floating Forest to the brutal Nightmare chapters. Each chapter adds something new: drifting platforms, crumbling ledges, orbiting crystals, twin fireballs, lightning, and spinning cogs. Later on, sentries fire aimed bolts, drifting clouds hide your next landing, timed crushers slam down, low lasers sweep the ground, and gust zones push you off course. Learn the timing, find the safe line, and reach the glowing arch. SHIELDS, FLAGS, AND SECOND CHANCES Every attempt starts with three shields. An obstacle hit costs one and knocks the owl back. Run out and the attempt ends. Flags save your position along the way, so Try Again puts you right back at the last flag instead of the start. ENDLESS MODE Chase a high score by jumping onto as many new platforms as you can. One fall or one hit ends the run. How far can you go? FIREFLIES AND FRIENDS Collect fireflies on every course and spend them in the shop. Unlock new characters to play as, including Pocket Penguin, Canopy Monkey, Ember Fox, Mossy Frog, Pookie the Maltese, Ted the Bear, Peanut the Capybara, and Tuck the Chihuahua. Grab the Extra Shield power-up to start every attempt with four shields, or trade fireflies for extra lives. LIVES You start with five lives, and one refills every 30 minutes. An optional Pro upgrade gives you unlimited lives. PLAY YOUR WAY - No sign-up required. Tap Play and go. - Sign in with Apple to keep your progress and purchases across devices. - Built for iPhone and iPad, portrait and landscape. - Haptic feedback on every jump. - Music is off until you want it. Tap the speaker to turn it on. An internet connection is needed to start a run, shop, and sync progress. A run already in progress can be finished offline. Ready to fly? The islands are waiting.
