Sagitta Chains1.8.0 - App Store

Match. Chain. Clear the board.

Sagitta Chains is a quick, calm arrow puzzle game built around satisfying chain reactions.

Tap arrows to send them flying. Line up arrows that share the same color and direction, then trigger them together for bigger scores. The longer the chain, the better the reward.

Every level is a fresh, generated puzzle, so the game never runs out. Practice mode teaches you the game by actually playing it, then sends you into Play when you are ready.

Make it your own. Pick from free and Pro visual themes that restyle the whole game, from the board and arrows to the menus and even the sounds. Switch anytime from the Themes screen.

Go Pro, if you like. Sagitta Chains is free with no ads, built on nights and weekends. One optional purchase unlocks every Pro theme, like the green-CRT Classic Arcade, and lets you start a new game at the level your last run ended on instead of climbing from level 1 every time. More Pro features arrive as I build them. It works on all your devices, forever. Entirely optional, never pay-to-win.

Take your records with you. Your bests sync across your devices with iCloud, automatically and free, no account needed.

PLAYS GREAT IN SHORT BURSTS

Version History Pick up at the level you left off.

Pro players can now start a new game at the level their last run ended on, instead of climbing from level 1 every time. Your level is waiting on the home screen, and after a run ends. Prefer a clean start? Start from Level 1 is always one tap away.

Already Pro and updating? Your level is set from your highest level, so it is ready the first time you open the game.

Not Pro? Nothing changes for you, and nothing has been taken away.

Minor UX updates and bug fixes. 1.8.0 Aug 20 Supporter and Supporter+ are now simply Pro, for $2.99. Pro unlocks every Pro theme, including Classic Arcade, plus new Pro features as they arrive.

If you already bought Supporter or Supporter+, you have Pro. Nothing to do, and nothing more to pay.

You can also now rate the game from the Pro screen if you would like to.

Minor UX updates and bug fixes. 1.7.0 Aug 11 Sagitta Chains now opens with a short Red Pill Blue Pill Studios animation instead of a blank screen. It is quick, and it doubles as the loading screen.

Also, when a newer version is on the App Store, a small marker appears on the Settings button and a note waits for you inside Settings.

Minor UX updates and bug fixes. 1.6.3 Jul 22 Faster, smoother, sharper. This update is all about keeping up with you.

Beat the clock with both hands. You can now tap multiple tiles at the same time, so arrows fire and chains clear as fast as you can tap. Every tap counts, even simultaneous ones.

Fast play now sounds as sharp as it feels. Sound effects keep up with rapid taps and big chains instead of bunching up or distorting.

Practice like it's the real thing. Practice mode now ends exactly like a real run: the music stops when time runs out, the timer shows zero, and on Classic Arcade the monsters get their little celebration. And the menu stays quiet after you leave.

Switch themes without missing a beat. The Classic Arcade pixel font now loads instantly the first time you switch to it.

Your records are safer than ever. A brand new best score is now protected from a rare save timing issue, and internal cleanup keeps the app lean and quick.

No ads, no accounts, still fully offline. Thanks for playing! 1.6.2 Jul 8 Fixes and polish, including an important stability fix.

Fixed a crash. During long sessions with sound on, the game could start to lag, the sound could fall behind, and on some devices it could freeze or crash. That's fixed.

The game now pauses when you step away. Pull down a notification or open Control Center mid-game and the timer pauses, then picks right back up when you return.

Practice mode got some love: a clearer walkthrough, buttons that no longer crowd the screen, and a friendly "Congrats!" when you clear the optional Hard level.

At game over, your score and level now appear first, so a quick tap won't skip past them.

The back headers on the Settings, Themes, and Support screens are now easier to tap anywhere, not just on the arrow.

No ads, no accounts, still fully offline. Thanks for playing! v1.6.1 Jul 4 A new theme, and now you can support the game (totally optional).

New Classic Arcade theme. A retro green-phosphor arcade look with a pixel font, scanlines, a starfield, and little marching monsters that speed up as your timer runs down. There is even an optional background arcade beat you can turn on in Settings.

Support my development, if you like. Sagitta Chains is free, with no ads, and I build it on nights and weekends. If you want to chip in, there are now two optional ways:

• Supporter: a gold supporter badge
• Supporter+: the badge plus all supporter themes (including Classic Arcade) and any supporter extras I add later

It is completely optional and purely a thank-you. No pay-to-win, no ads, and nothing about how the game plays changes. Purchases restore across your devices with your Apple ID.

Thanks for playing, either way! v1.6.0 Jul 3 Your progress now follows you across your devices.

Automatically iCloud sync your high score, highest level, longest chain, and most chains in a level across your iPhone and iPad. No account, no sign-up. Just be signed into your iCloud account and your records are there on every device.

You're in control. Manage it from Settings:
• Turn iCloud Sync on or off
• Manually sync whenever you want
• Delete your synced scores from iCloud whenever you want.

Private by design. Your scores sync through your own private iCloud, so they stay yours. Still no accounts, still no ads, and you can still play fully offline.

Updating? Your existing progress carries over. No reset this time. v1.5.0 Jun 22 Personalize your game with themes!

New Themes store. Tap Themes on the home screen to browse and apply free visual themes. Each one restyles the whole game, from the board and arrows to the menus, and some even change the sounds.

Three themes to start:
• Command Panel, the classic cyan look
• Aurora, cool emerald and teal, with its own sounds
• Gold Rush, warm gold and bronze

Clearer arrows. Arrows now have a crisp thin outline, so their direction is easier to read on any board.

Switch anytime. Change your theme whenever you like, even mid-game, right from Settings. Love a theme's look but prefer the original sounds? Keep them with one tap.

More themes are on the way. Still no ads, no accounts, and fully offline. v1.4.0 Jun 18 A big update that simplifies how you play.

One Play button. No more choosing Easy, Normal, or Hard. Every run now starts the same and ramps up as you go, so the challenge builds naturally and your high score is always a fair, beatable target.

New Practice mode. Learn the game by actually playing it, one idea at a time, then graduate straight into Play. It replaces the old tutorial.

Your records, front and center. The home screen now shows four bests at a glance:
• High Score
• Highest Level
• Longest Chain
• Most Chains in a single level

Heads up: with the switch to a single Play mode, your stats start fresh with this update. v1.3.0 Jun 16 So sorry, everyone! A bug sneaked into version 1.2.0 that could freeze the game right after you cleared a board. This update fixes it. Chains animate away properly again when you fire them, the screen no longer flickers, and the bonus "+N" no longer gets cut off near the edges.

I also pulled the Undo and Show Chains power-ups for now. They were not working the way I wanted, so I am taking them out while I redesign them properly. They will be back in a future update.

Thank you so much for your patience, and for all the feedback. It truly helps. v1.2.1 Jun 15 We heard your feedback and updated the game to just you and the clock now.

Lives are gone, a misclick no longer costs a life, it costs time off your clock. Every tap counts, and the stakes climb as you go: the deeper and harder you play, and the more you slip in a run, the more each misclick costs.

• A redesigned dashboard with a bold countdown clock, and right under the time, a live readout of exactly what your next misclick will cost you
• Gold chain links that light up as you hit your chain goal, plus a running "+N" tally for every bonus chain beyond it
• Smoother, clearer feedback the moment you mistap 1.2.0 Jun 14 Your best score, front and center. See your record for each difficulty on the main menu, during play, and at game over. Set a new best and the game celebrates with golden fireworks. A sleeker dashboard. A redesigned compact display with a countdown ring (your level at its center) and chain links that fill in as you clear chains. Press and hold the dashboard anytime to see what each section means. Quitting keeps your points. Leave a run early and your score still counts toward your best. 1.1.0 Jun 11 Smoother chains. Tap any tile in a completed chain to fire the whole thing. No more hunting for the exact end tile. Closing gaps works the same way: tap anywhere in a cluster and the whole group slides together. Plus small polish under the hood. 1.0.1 Jun 9 1.0 Jun 9
