Hold Paws: One Tap Otter Hop

Moy Nera

About this game

Two otters hold paws so they never drift apart. Tap at the right moment to twirl one otter around the other and hop across a river of floating autumn leaves. Hold Paws is a cute one-tap arcade game: easy to learn, hard to master, and lovely to look at.

HOW TO PLAY
• One otter sits on a leaf while the other twirls around it
• Tap when the twirling otter is over a leaf, and they swap places
• Land in the middle of a leaf for a Perfect and build bonus streaks
• Keep ahead of the current, or the river carries you over the falls

TWO WAYS TO PLAY
• Classic: a real timing challenge from the very first leaf. The current pushes you toward the waterfall, the twirl speeds up and the leaves get smaller
• Chill: no current, a slower twirl and glowing landing guides. Play at your own pace, great for relaxed evenings

A RIVER THAT CHANGES WITH THE SEASONS
Hop far enough and the scenery changes around you: Autumn Afternoon, Golden Hour, Moonlit River with fireflies, First Snow, the Northern Lights and Spring Blossom. Every new season adds a postcard to your journal.

LEAVES WITH A TWIST
• Swirl leaves flip the direction of the twirl
• Swaying leaves drift from side to side
• Long logs give you a steady place to land
• Bonus leaves offer a small detour with shells on them

COLLECT, UNLOCK AND COME BACK
• Collect shells and meet 13 otter pairs with bows, scarves, beanies, flower crowns, a sailor cap and a crown
• Four special pairs only join you after a great run
• Three missions at a time, with new ones after every run
• A daily gift that grows each day you come back
• Spend shells to keep a great run going, once per run
• A journal of your records and the seasons you've reached
• Share a picture of your score with friends

MADE WITH CARE
• Plays offline: no Wi-Fi or account needed
• No energy or timers: play as long as you like
• Hand-drawn storybook look and calm, generated music
• Gentle vibration on every landing, with settings for sound, music, vibration and screen shake
• Made for phones, and it fills tablet screens with riverside woods
• A small download that starts in seconds

TIPS FOR LONG RUNS
• Watch where the twirl will cross the next leaf and tap just before it gets there
• A Perfect landing is worth up to 6 points, so aim for the middle of the leaf
• Swirl leaves reverse the twirl, so be ready to wait for it to come around the other way
• When the waterfall gets close, keep hopping upstream to stay ahead of the current

If you enjoy one-tap games, timing games, casual arcade games or cute animal games, take the otters for a swim. How far down the river can you get without letting go?
