Circular: Arcade Watch Games

About this game

Arcade watch games built for the round screen on your wrist — not phone games shrunk to fit.

Circular is a growing collection of quick watch games for Wear OS smartwatches. Every one is built around the shape of the display itself: rings to tap, dials to time, arcs to catch. A round lasts seconds to a couple of minutes, so it fits the moments a watch actually gets used — waiting for coffee, standing on a platform, halfway through a walk.

Runs entirely on the watch. Play offline, with no phone needed, no account and no ads.

PLAY RIGHT AWAY
• Orbit Runner — tap to switch rings and dodge what's coming
• Clockwerk Defense — tap the enemies before they reach the core
• Pulse Ring — tap on the beat as the marker sweeps the target
• Ring Racer — tap fast to boost and beat the ghost over three laps
• Tap-In Golf — tap once for power, tap again to putt
• Spin Cycle — stop three spinning rings and line them all up top

EARN THESE BY WALKING
Two games have no permanent unlock for sale. You open them with your own steps, and the count resets every night.
• Hour Glass Drop — 5,000 steps today
• Pressure Valve — 8,500 steps today

A step ring fills on the menu as you move. Walk far enough and the game opens for the rest of the day. Tomorrow you earn it again.

BUILT FOR THE WATCH
• Standalone smartwatch games: installs straight to the watch and works without your phone
• Plays offline — no wifi, no signal, no account
• Every game plays one-handed, with taps
• Best scores saved on the device
• Optional one-off purchase if you'd rather play a step-locked game without the walk that day

WORKS ON
Wear OS 3 and later, including Google Pixel Watch, Samsung Galaxy Watch, OnePlus Watch and other Wear OS smartwatches.

STEPS AND PRIVACY
Circular asks to read your step count only when you tap to unlock a step game — never on first launch, and never before you've been told why. Your steps are read on the watch, used on the watch, and never sent anywhere.

What’s new

New look for every game:
• Each game has its own colour, and moving pieces glow and leave trails
• Scores sit in the middle and messages on a clear dark bar, so text is readable over the rings
• Every game opens with a start card showing how to play

Two new games: Tide Ring and Safecracker.

Fixes and tweaks:
• Spin Cycle now always counts a line-up as a win
• Spin Cycle is a little slower and Pulse Ring a little faster
• Pressure Valve builds up faster the longer you play
