Getting started
On Apple Watch, turn the Digital Crown to flip through the cabinets and tap a cabinet to play. Each game shows a short demo first; tap to start. Swipe left on a cabinet to see its scores. The grid button lists every game, and the gear button opens Settings.
Wristcade runs on its own on Apple Watch, no iPhone needed. It also plays on iPhone and iPad.
Controls
On Apple Watch, the Digital Crown steers, spins and aims. On iPhone and iPad, drag sideways instead. In games that use steering, a quick tap (without dragging) is the action button.
If steering feels too fast or too slow, open Settings and change Steering. Games pause automatically when you lower your wrist.
Tickets and unlocks
Every run pays tickets, with a bonus for a new best score. Spend them at the Prize Counter on new cabinets, color themes and swimmers for Deep Dive. Tickets are only earned by playing; there are no in-app purchases. If you are signed in to iCloud, tickets and unlocks sync between your devices.
Challenges
After a run, tap Challenge to send your score as a link. When a friend opens it, Wristcade opens that game with your score to beat, even if they have not unlocked it yet, and beating it pays 20 bonus tickets.
Troubleshooting
My tickets didn't show up on my other device
Make sure both devices are signed in to the same iCloud account and connected to the internet, then open Wristcade on each. Syncing can take a minute.
I don't hear any sound
Check that Sound is on in Settings and that your device isn't in silent mode.
A challenge link opened a web page instead of the game
Links open the game when Wristcade is installed. If it is, long-press the link and choose to open it in Wristcade.
