How it feels

A frantic arcade score-attack that mixes match-3 puzzle solving with survival pressure as the board fills with ever-spawning pieces.

What players say

Players describe it as a Puzzle Bobble-like with a unique twist: you move around a circular board and fire inward. The soundtrack and polished arcade feel are praised, but some call the single mode easy and note a run takes about an hour, while others enjoy the escalating challenge past level 20.
