Frike: A Minimalist Android Game That's Both Thrilling and Relaxing
Some games pump your adrenaline; others soothe your soul. Frike, the debut Android game from indie developer chakahacka, uniquely blends both experiences.
Your objective in Frike is simple: survive as long as possible. You control a floating triangle with purple, orange, and green sections. Two buttons control vertical movement (ascending and descending), while a third rotates the triangle.
Don't let the single level fool you; Frike offers endless gameplay. The level is infinite, providing a constantly evolving challenge.
Scattered throughout Frike's atmospheric, abstract world are colored blocks (white, purple, orange, and green). Match your triangle's colored sections to corresponding blocks to score points. Crash into too many mismatched or white blocks, and it's game over.
Strategic maneuvering is key. Some blocks offer bonus effects, slowing your descent to allow for precise alignment.
Frike perfectly embodies the minimalist arcade genre. It can be intensely challenging for high-score seekers, yet equally relaxing for those seeking a tranquil, visually appealing experience. The game's understated visuals are complemented by a meditative soundtrack of resonant chimes and metallic tones.
