Curling Club

Curling Club is top-down curling on a bright club rink, with a crowd in bobble hats packed along the boards. Drag back from the stone in the hack to set the line and the weight, choose an in-turn or an out-turn, and let go. A dotted path shows where an unswept stone would curl, and it bends more as the stone slows down, just like on real ice. Once it is sliding, tap or rub the ice ahead of it to sweep: the stone runs further and straighter, but the brooms get tired, so save them for the moment it matters.

The forty puzzles are spread over four clubs, from the Village Rink to the Night Final. Each one sets out a few stones and a job to do with the stones you are given: draw to the button, take out the red guard, freeze to a stone, raise your own stone into the four-foot, split a pair, hit and roll behind cover, or score two. Every puzzle has three stars to earn, for the goal, for doing it within par and for stopping on the marked spot, with instant retry and an undo for the last stone. The physics is real and deterministic, so the same throw always lands the same way, and the deciding knock plays out in slow motion.

Match mode is a proper game of curling, end by end, against a bot at three skill levels or for two players on one device, over two to eight ends with the hammer passing to the side that did not score. The daily end gives everyone the same position for the day, with a score you can share and a streak to keep, and Draw Practice is an endless run of draws to a moving target where three misses end it and your high score is saved.
