Orbita is a cozy, pocket-sized puzzle game played on a round board. Drag pieces onto the board and complete a full ring, or a line from the core to the edge, to clear it. Earn ring spins as you play and turn a ring to open new space. Chain clears to build a streak, clear several lines at once for a combo, and charge the core until it explodes in a Supernova. A global leaderboard with Game Center. Everyone competes in a single ranking, whatever phone they play on. Switch between All time and This week (it resets every Monday), see your world rank after every game and tap it to open the full table. If you already play, your best score is kept. • Simple to learn, deep to master • Earn spins and turn the rings to save a tricky board • Spin hints: when no piece fits, the board shows you which ring to turn • Combos, streaks with a glowing aura, and Supernovas • Wipe the whole board for a Perfect Clear • Watch out for meteors as the game heats up • A living starfield that reacts to the way you play • 7 beautiful skins: Classic Gem, Crystal, Neon, Candy, Metal, Nebula and Pixel • Short, relaxing rounds, no connection needed to play One more round?

Coloured rubber bands are stretched round pegs, all tangled up. Tap one peg, tap another, and they swap places. Keep swapping until no two bands cross and every loop springs free. LoopLoose is a calm, juicy untangle puzzle. Every stage is built backwards from a solved board, so it always has a solution, and a solver works out par: the fewest swaps it can find. Match par for three stars, or beat it on the biggest boards if you can. HOW TO PLAY • Tap a peg, then another, to swap them • Sparks show where bands cross. Clear every spark • Fewer swaps earn more stars • Stuck? Reshuffle deals the stage again with a fresh look WHAT'S INSIDE • 250 stages across 8 worlds, from a sunny breeze to a midnight sky • Boards that grow from two little loops to 36 pegs • 24 themes to unlock with stars: gumdrops and licorice, mushrooms and roots, neon switches, crackling power lines, planets in orbit, crown jewels and more • Holiday themes for everyone: lanterns for Lunar New Year, hearts on Valentine's Day, skulls and bones at Halloween, pies at Thanksgiving, candy canes at Christmas, mirror balls on New Year's Eve and more • 35 badges to earn, from Hat Trick to Perfect Ten.
