A tiny turtle. A very long crawl.
You hatch at the top of the beach. The sea is somewhere ahead, past the gulls, the crabs, the tyre tracks and the heat. Nothing out here is on your side.
Turtle Escape is a one-handed portrait adventure about reading a beach and picking your moment. Three lanes, one hatchling, and a Hydration meter that never stops draining.
The Crawl
Swipe between three lanes and time your dash through the gap. Every dash costs Hydration, so speed is always a trade. Threats telegraph before they strike, so learn them, find the opening, and commit before it closes.
Seventy story levels carry you across seven shores. Clear them all and the Second Tide reopens every one of them, harder.
Seven shores, seven sets of rules
Sunny Shore teaches you the crawl. Then come Wild Island, Tourist Resort, Neon City Coast, Volcanic Isle, Frozen Cove and Radioactive Beach, each with its own hazards, weather and pace. Learning a shore is most of surviving it.
More than the story
Endless: survive as long as you can, every metre counts, and the pace never stops climbing.
Chill Ride: no score, no game over. Drift along a gentle beach collecting bubbles, foam and keepsakes.
Weekly Challenge: one seeded run, identical for every player, refreshed every week.
The Lagoon
Hatchlings you rescue swim, grow and forage in a sanctuary of your own. Feed them, decorate their pool, and let them bring back what they find in the shallows.
Visiting turtles arrive in a bad way. Cut the tangled plastic off with the Snips, lift each barnacle with the Scraper, then soap, rinse, dry and treat the shell and the belly.
The tide washes litter in as well. Clear the drifting nets and plastic before they reach your turtles, and free any resident caught in them. Neither job is timed, and both pay.
The Tide Anvil
Temper your shell toward one of four callings - Swift, Sturdy, Lucky or Deft - and that bonus follows you into every run. The first few temper levels are guaranteed. After that, fortune favours the bold.
Collect the coast
Shell skins, auras, charms, avatars and Collection Book entries. Achievements that pay out, daily and weekly Missions, and a Sand Pass season track to climb.
