Soar is a momentum flying game built for Apple Watch. Dive into a slope to build speed, launch off the crest, and glide as far as the air will carry you. Every hill is a chance to go faster. HOW TO PLAY Hold to dive, release to fly. Time each dive so you meet the downslope at full speed and a clean landing slingshots you onward. Miss the line and you sink. Easy to pick up in a second, hard to put down. ALWAYS SOMETHING TO UNLOCK Soar is built around steady progress. Every run pushes a challenge forward, and finishing challenges opens the next area, the next biome, another of more than 130 birds, a new track for the soundtrack. Start in the Sunset Fields, then climb through the clouds toward Space or dig down past the Underground to the Core. Seventeen biomes, each with its own art, music and handling, and a new goal waiting the moment you land. THREE MODES • ADVENTURE: work through the world, one area at a time • ENDLESS: no limits, just distance, chasing your own best • RANKED: compete on the leaderboards Plus a Daily Flight every day with a fresh run and a morning reminder. A REAL IPHONE APP The companion is not a settings screen. Soar plays full screen on iPhone too, so you can play the whole game on your phone, follow your stats and listen to all 17 soundtrack pieces. Twelve food birds, from Pizza to Honey Cake, can only be earned by flying on iPhone, each with its own mission. EARN YOUR WATCH FACE Every biome you unlock also unlocks its artwork as a watch face complication. Seventeen in total, all earned by playing. MORE • PLAYS OFFLINE: no wifi, no account, no sign in, ever • ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK: 17 tracks composed for the game • Built for the Digital Crown and the small screen, one hand, any moment FREE TO PLAY The Sunset Fields and the Desert are yours from the start, along with your first hop up to the Clouds and your first drop to the Underground. Play as long as you like without paying anything. CROWN GAMES ROYAL PASS Full game unlocked.

Solitaire Watch's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 18.0). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.
