Small app. Good company.
A tiny cabinet.
A little more finesse.
Five islands share one spindle. Turn them together, trust your timing, and see where the next coin lands.
Catch a little bonus.
Settle on a taco marker for extra points. Three coins give each run a few chances to surprise you.
Change the current.
Earn the Tidal Room, where a slower fall and sideways drift bring a new rhythm to the same little cabinet.

Read the privacy policy ↗Is Taco Drop available yet?
Taco Drop: Retro Game is coming soon for iPhone and iPad. A verified App Store download link will be added when the listing is live.
Is it free?
Yes. The planned release is free, with no in-app purchases, advertising, or subscriptions. Coins and points are game elements with no monetary value or redeemable rewards.
How do I play?
Start a three-coin run in Dry Arcade. Turn the thumb dial to rotate all five islands together, ease the coin past an edge, and aim for the next landing. Use the arrows for precise turns. Jiggle nudges the coin in the direction of your last turn; you do not need to shake your phone.
How do I unlock the Tidal Room?
Reach 150 points in one three-coin run. Points carry across all three coins, including misses. Finish the run, select Water, and start a new run. Water slows the fall and adds sideways drift. The unlock is saved on that installation.
What earns points?
Each new island earns 20 points per coin. A steady landing from above on a taco marker adds 25, and the goal earns 60. Try to improve your personal best.
Can I play offline?
Yes. Gameplay is single-player and on-device. There is no login, server save, or account-based progress sync. Your best score, water unlock, and sound and haptic preferences are stored locally.
Will reinstalling restore my progress?
There is no game account or developer-held save to restore. Deleting the app removes its local data from that installation; offloading can retain it. Apple backup and restore settings may preserve or restore app data.
