Color Box Ship

Color Box Ship has one rule and no way around it: a box that reaches the water ends your run. Boxes fall in colours, they fall in patterns you did not see coming, and your ship only moves left and right along the surface, so every drop is a small decision about which side of the screen you can afford to be on.

The points you collect are not just a score. They buy a sturdier hull that survives a mistake or two, heavier gravity that slows the boxes on their way down, extra colours of box, and a better rate of return on each catch. That turns a run you lost early into groundwork for the next one.

How to play

Move the ship left and right to line it up under whichever box is falling fastest, and catch it before it clears the deck. A single box hitting the water is the end - there is no second chance until you have bought one. Between runs, spend what you have earned: a tougher ship, slower falling boxes, more points for every catch, and new box colours to keep the deck busy.

Controls

Move the mouse left and right and the ship follows it along the water - there is nothing to click while you are catching. On a phone or tablet, slide your finger across the screen to do the same. The upgrade buttons between runs are clicked or tapped as normal.
