Spin Lab is a top-down arena battle for spinning tops. Launch a metal top into a steel bowl, steer it by tilting your phone, and knock your rivals out of spin or out of the bowl. The last top still spinning wins.
HOW A MATCH WORKS
- Swipe to launch your top, then tilt the phone to steer. If you prefer touch, steer by dragging instead.
- Tap to dash. Hold to charge a stronger dash and release to fire it. A stronger dash costs more spin.
- A rival is out when it stops spinning or leaves the bowl. Each fight is best of 3.
PHYSICS YOU CAN FEEL
- The attacker loses less spin than the top that gets hit, so a clean strike pays off.
- The rough centre of the bowl drains spin, so do not park there.
- Glowing orbs restore spin. Time your run to grab them.
EIGHT RIVALS, ONE LADDER
Beat Pebble, Grinder, Hornet, Anvil, Magpie, Ricochet and Mirror, then face Foreman, the boss. Every rival fights differently and each is harder than the one before. Earn 1 to 3 stars on each rival.
FOUR BOWLS, DIFFERENT RULES
- Classic: a round bowl with a rough centre.
- Oval Pan: an oval bowl where the short sides ring out more easily.
- Post Bowl: bumper posts that bounce you around the bowl.
- Low Lip: part of the rim is low, so you can be knocked out there at lower speed.
THREE TOPS
- Standard: balanced.
- Bulwark: heavy and hard to push, but slow to turn.
- Swift: light and quick to turn, but easier to shove.
Stars unlock Bulwark and Swift.
MODES
- Ladder: work up through the eight rivals and collect stars.
- Survival: a gauntlet of rivals in a row. Your spin carries over between fights, with a partial refill. See how many you can beat.
- Daily challenge: a new rival, bowl and modifier every day. Play as often as you like and keep your best score. Build a streak of days.
