About this game

Hold to ride the whirlpool. Release to fly.
The deeper you spiral, the faster you launch. How deep do you dare to go?

Turtle Tide is a free one-finger arcade game where timing is everything. Guide your sea turtle through an endless ocean trench by riding underwater whirlpools and slingshotting across open water. Play offline, anywhere, in seconds.

ONE FINGER CONTROLS EVERYTHING
• HOLD anywhere on the screen to dive into the nearest whirlpool's orbit.
• SPIRAL toward the center to build speed.
• RELEASE at the right instant to slingshot out and fly to the next whirlpool.

THE DEEPER YOU GO, THE FASTER YOU LAUNCH
Every whirlpool is a test of nerve. Pulling closer to the center gives you more speed, but hold a split second too long and the whirlpool swallows you whole. Release too early and you fall short of the next safe gap.

EVERY GAP IS REACHABLE. EVERY RUN IS FAIR.
There are no impossible passages and no random deaths. Each gap is verified to be clearable with clean timing, so a lost run is always yours to fix on the next attempt.

CAN YOU REACH 10,000 METERS?
The current quickens and the gaps tighten the farther you swim. Setting a record demands flawless timing and smart risk-taking. Climb the global leaderboards and unlock 14 achievements along the way.

DODGE HAZARDS, BANK PEARLS
• Jellyfish drift into your flight path.
• Kelp fields drag your momentum down.
• The mermaid's song pulls your turtle off course.
• Glowing pearls fly to your turtle like magnets. Bank them to unlock new themes.

UNLOCK NEW WORLDS
Spend your pearls, or grab a theme in the shop, to change the whole look of your run:
• Sky: soar on cloud wings above sunny horizons.
• Fairy Forest: glide on glowing fairy wings among giant mushrooms.
• Plus further premium themes: Monochrome and Cosmos.
Themes are cosmetic only. Every run stays 100% skill-based.

• Free to play, no ads, no pay-to-win
• Works offline, no account needed
• Quick runs made for short breaks
• Global leaderboards and achievements via Google Play Games

Hold. Spiral. Slingshot. How deep do you dare to go?
Hold to ride the whirlpool, release to slingshot your turtle. Reach 10,000 m!
