Alkkagi is the Korean board game where you flick stones across a Go board and knock your opponent's off the edge. Alkkagi 3D brings it to iPhone and iPad in 3D, with real collision physics and a camera you can swing around the board. Free. Works offline. No account needed. ■ FOUR GAME MODES · Baduk Mode — classic Alkkagi with black and white Go stones. Place your stones anywhere you like before the match starts. · Janggi Mode — flick Janggi pieces (Korean chess). Each piece has a different weight, so a General pushes harder than a Soldier. · Line Mode — stop your stone as close to the target line as you can without falling off. Up to 7 players take turns on one device. · Stage Mode — 50 single-player missions. From stage 21 the white stones move and dodge, so you have to lead your shot. ■ TOGETHER OR ALONE · Local 2-player duels, taking turns on one device. No internet, no second device, no sign-up. · Alkkago, the AI that grows with you — 50 ranks across five tiers, from Beginner to Master. Each win unlocks the next rank, and you can drop back to any rank you have already cleared. ■ COLLECT 20 SPECIAL STONES Copper, Jade, Silver, Gold, Diamond and 15 more, from Red Copper to Galaxy. Buy them with points earned from playing, or unlock them through achievements — winning matches, climbing AI ranks, clearing stages or checking in daily. Each tier carries its own ability: · Copper — longer aim guide · Jade — brake, so your stone stops after impact instead of sliding off · Silver — heavy, so enemy hits push you less · Gold — piercing shot that keeps going after the first hit · Diamond — survive one fall off the board You may field only one stone of each kind per match, so the more of the collection you unlock, the more ways you can build your line-up. ■ BUILD YOUR OWN BOARD In Baduk Mode you set out your own stones before the match begins. Spread them wide to survive, or cluster them for a chain shot — the opening is yours to design. ■ CONTROLS THAT FIT YOU · Two shot styles — push shot, or pull back and release like a slingshot · Drag farther and faster for a stronger shot · Pinch and drag to move the 3D camera around the board · Settings for language, sound effects, music, vibration and notifications ■ DAILY REWARDS A 7-day check-in calendar shows tomorrow's reward before you claim today's. Day 2 gives you a free Copper Stone to start your collection. ■ YOU MIGHT LIKE THIS IF · You want a board game the whole family can play on one device · You enjoy carrom, crokinole, marbles or other flicking games · You miss the feel of flicking stones across a Go board · You are looking for a two-player game to share at a table · You want mission-style puzzles to play on your own ■ ABOUT ALKKAGI Alkkagi (알까기) is a traditional Korean game played on a baduk board, the same board used for Go. Two players set out the same number of stones, then take turns flicking them to push the other side off the edge. The last player with stones remaining wins. It is simple enough to learn in one round and still fun after a hundred. Supports iPhone and iPad. Available in English and Korean. Have fun!
