Frike: A Minimalist Mobile Game That's Both Thrilling and Relaxing
Some games pump you up; others soothe you. Frike, the debut Android game from indie developer chakahacka, uniquely blends both experiences.
The objective is simple: survive as long as possible. You control a floating triangle with purple, orange, and green segments. On-screen buttons control ascent, descent, and rotation.
Don't let the single level fool you; Frike's world is infinite. You'll never reach the end. The gameplay involves navigating a constantly shifting landscape of colored blocks. Matching your triangle's segments to similarly colored blocks earns points.
Colliding with mismatched or white blocks results in a fiery demise. However, some blocks offer bonus effects, slowing your descent for strategic maneuvering.
Frike perfectly embodies minimalist arcade gameplay. While high-score chasing can be intense, the game also provides a relaxing, visually appealing experience. The understated graphics are complemented by a meditative soundtrack of resonant chimes and metallic tones.
