Frike Is a Simple Casual Arcade Game with a Geometric Twist, Out Now on Android
Frike: A Minimalist Android Game That's Both Thrilling and Relaxing
Some games pump your adrenaline; others soothe your soul. Frike, the debut Android title from indie developer chakahacka, uniquely blends both experiences.
The objective in Frike is simple: survive as long as possible. You control a floating triangle, segmented into purple, orange, and green sections. Two left-side buttons control vertical movement (ascending and descending), while a right-side button rotates the triangle.
Don't let the single level fool you; Frike's gameplay is infinitely challenging. The level never ends. Scattered throughout the abstract, atmospheric world are colored blocks (white, purple, orange, green). Scoring involves rotating your triangle to match its colored segments with corresponding blocks.
Colliding with too many mismatched or white blocks results in a spectacular explosion. However, some blocks offer bonus effects, slowing your descent to allow for strategic maneuvering.
Frike exemplifies a minimalist arcade-casual game. While high-score chases can be intense, the game also offers a relaxing, meditative experience as you navigate the obstacles and appreciate the visuals. The soundtrack complements this duality, featuring calming echoey chimes and delicate metallic sounds.
If this sounds appealing, download Frike for free from the Google Play Store today.
