Read full descriptionHide full description
Koball is a fast, one-thumb endless runner. Roll a glowing ball down the track, find the gap in every row of cones, and see how far you can get before you clip one. Easy to pick up, hard to put down. Drag to steer, react fast, beat your best. HOW TO PLAY - Drag to steer: the ball follows your finger, with no lanes to snap between - Grab coins and power-ups as the track speeds up - Hit a jump pad to fly over a row of cones along an arc of coins - Reach top speed and the world lights up with streaks and trails - One hit ends the run, so every metre counts POWER-UPS - Shield: smash straight through cones - Magnet: pull nearby coins in - Double score: everything you collect counts twice Spend your coins to upgrade each one and make it last longer. Jump Pads can be upgraded too, for higher, longer flights with more coins. BOOSTS From player level 5, spend coins on a head start before a run: Rocket Start, Shield Start, Magnet Start or Double Score. Upgrade Rocket Start for a longer launch. WORLDS TO UNLOCK Run further and save your coins to unlock multiple themed worlds. Each one has its own music, and the whole world pulses with the beat. Roll through a neon city, a candy land, an underwater reef, a factory at sunset, an enchanted forest at night and a kingdom in the sky. - Seasonal event worlds, won only during their event and yours to keep forever - A secret world for players who keep a 7-day daily streak COLLECT BALLS More than 20 balls to collect, from the classic Koball to animal bubble friends found in presents, plus event and reward balls. LEVELS, PRESENTS AND REWARDS - Every run earns XP. Level up for coins and, sometimes, a present - A free present every 4 hours, holding coins, XP or a new ball - A daily reward streak and daily missions - A welcome-back gift when you return after a few days away - Dozens of awards in tiers, including a few secret ones to find HALLOWEEN PUMPKIN HUNT Every year from 24 October to 2 November, collect pumpkins on the track: 40 win the Jack-o'-Ball and 150 unlock the Haunted World. The Haunted World can only be won during the hunt, and once it's yours, you keep it forever. CHRISTMAS SNOWFLAKE HUNT Every year from 1 December to 6 January, collect snowflakes on the track: 40 win the Snow Globe ball and 150 unlock the Snowy Village world. Snowy Village can only be won during the hunt, and once it's yours, you keep it forever. COMPETE Chase the weekly leaderboard: it starts over every Monday, and the top players win coins, presents and XP. Or claim your spot on the all-time board.
