Gameplay

Simple to start. Hard to master.

Three moves you'll learn in seconds — and chase for hours.

FAQ

Good to know

Is Starby free to play?

Yes. Starby is free to play, with optional in-app purchases and rewarded ads. There are no forced ads during gameplay.

Can I play offline?

Yes. Starby is offline-friendly — you can drop, merge, and chase your best score without a connection. Game Center leaderboards sync when you're back online.

Are there forced ads during gameplay?

No. Ads never interrupt a run. Rewarded ads are optional — you choose to watch them — and a one-time Remove Ads purchase is available.

What is Relaxed Mode?

A calmer way to play: no timer pressure, just drop and merge at your own pace. Switch to it any time you'd rather unwind than race the clock.
