Skip the Stone

Find a quiet spot, pick a flat stone, and skip it across the water.

SWIPE TO THROW Flick across the screen: faster goes further, and a low, flat throw skips best, just like the real thing.

TAP ON THE TOUCHDOWN Tap just as the stone kisses the water for a perfect skip. String them together into a streak and watch it fly.

A LITTLE HELP ALONG THE WAY Bounce off lily pads, sleepy turtles, drifting logs and friendly seals. Call a breeze to push it along, or let a gull carry it for a while.

ACROSS AND BEYOND Skip all the way across and your stone keeps going, tumbling over the land and knocking things over, from garden gnomes and hay bales to tents and treasure chests: the further out, the more they're worth. When it stops, kick it on: stop the power meter in the green. The farther it gets, the more hats, pet wear and stone trails you win.

EARN RIPPLES, SKIP FURTHER Every skip earns ripples. Spend them on new stones (from a humble River Pebble to the mysterious Golden Stone), mod them, strengthen your arm, and reach the far bank.

FOURTEEN SPOTS TO DISCOVER Reach each far bank to open the next spot: Meadow Creek's mill pond, the willows of Willow River, snow-capped Pinewood Lake and the open sea at Saltwind Coast, all in hand-crafted pixel art.

REAL TIME OF DAY The light follows your clock: soft sunrises, golden sunsets, and starry nights with fireflies and crickets. The weather changes through the day, from full sun and passing clouds to gentle rain, morning fog and snow at the lake.
