How to play Boop Drop

Boop Drop is a bouncy arcade game: a round critter bounces on a tall tower of rings, and you turn the tower so it drops through the gaps, all the way down.

▶ Play Boop Drop

The goal

Get as deep as you can. The critter always bounces at the front of the tower; you turn the tower under it. Every ring you fall through gives points, and falling through several rings in one go gives more each time (1, 2, 3...). Land on red thorns and the drop is over. Your best score goes to the Top 50.

The rules

A floor makes the critter bounce. A gap lets it fall to the next ring.
Red thorns (from ring 150: on one ring in 7 at first, then more often) end the drop. They have white spikes too, so you can tell them by shape as well as colour.
Fall through 3 rings without a bounce and the critter catches the fever: it glows, and the next floor or thorns it lands on are smashed for bonus points.
Every 20 rings starts a new zone with new colours and a bonus. The deeper you go, the more thorns and the narrower the gaps.

What you will meet

Stars float in some gaps: drop through that gap to collect one for bonus points.
Cracked floors (from ring 200) hold for one bounce, then crumble away.
Spinning rings (from ring 250) turn on their own, so time your fall.
A soft shadow shows where the critter will land on the next ring.
Your first drop is a short guide: a hand shows which way to drag, step by step. The first 149 rings have no thorns at all.
Chutes: often the gaps of 6 or 7 rings line up. Drop into one and the critter falls through them all at once, catches the fever and smashes the ring below.

Tips

Turn the tower while the critter is high in the air: crossing thorns is safe until it comes down.
Look one ring ahead: the gap under you should lead to a floor, not to thorns.
Chain falls for the fever: a smash clears even a ring full of thorns.

About the game

Boop Drop is a bouncy arcade game about falling as far as you can. A round critter bounces on top of a tall tower of rings, and you turn the tower under it so that it drops through the gaps, ring after ring, all the way down.

It starts gently: your first drop is a short guide, and the first 149 rings have no thorns at all. After that red thorns appear, more and more often, and later come cracked floors that hold for one bounce and rings that spin on their own. Every 20 rings a new zone begins with new colours.

The best moments come from chains. Fall through three rings without a bounce and the critter catches the fever, glows and smashes the next floor it lands on, even one full of thorns. Missions, 21 looks for your critter and a daily tower with your own ghost give you plenty to come back for.

Questions and answers

What ends a drop?

Landing on red thorns. Thorns also have white spikes, so you can tell them by their shape as well as their colour.

How does the fever work?

Fall through 3 rings in a row without a bounce and the critter catches the fever. The next floor or thorns it lands on are smashed for bonus points.

What are chutes?

Sometimes the gaps of 6 or 7 rings line up. Drop into one and the critter falls through all of them at once, catches the fever and smashes the ring below.

Can I keep going after landing on thorns?

Once per drop an optional ad lets you continue: the thorns are cleared and you are safe for a moment.
