Spiral Drop

A cake pop bounces on a giant layer cake standing in a sunny forest glade, and every gap you line up drops it one layer lower. Fall through three layers in one go and it turns red-hot and smashes straight through the next one, jelly and all. How deep can you go?

How to play

Drag left and right, or hold ← → (A/D), to turn the cake so the cake pop falls through the gaps where slices have been cut. It bounces safely on cream, but landing on wobbling cherry jelly ends the run. Each layer you pass is worth 20 points and 2 coins. Two boosters help: the glass cake dome (C, or tap it) makes jelly harmless for 10 seconds, and the cake knife (B, or tap it) cuts straight down through four layers. Knives also hover over some layers: drop past one to grab it.

Tips

• Don’t rush: the cake pop bounces in place as long as you like, so turn to the next gap before you let it drop.
• Chain falls. Three layers in one drop makes the next landing a smash, so a long fall can carry you past a layer full of jelly.
• Save the dome for the deep layers, where the jelly comes thicker.
• The bar at the top left runs to your best score. Each candle on it is a prize: coins, a dome or a knife.
• Missions (bounce, pass layers, score, use knives) pay coins as you play, even mid-run.

What’s in it

An endless tower of cake: vanilla, strawberry and chocolate layers with jam and cream, and more and more rich chocolate gateau layers the deeper you go. There’s a bar to beat your own best with prize candles along it, a cycle of missions that gets harder as you finish them, and a shop of 12 treats to bounce with: cake pops, truffles, a gold pearl, a gumball, a donut hole, cookie dough and more, bought with the coins you collect.
