Frost is a mesmerizing experience that feels more like digital art than a traditional puzzle game. Your goal is to guide swarms of glowing particles—representing 'spirits'—to their home planets. You do this by drawing paths on the screen, creating currents and flows that the particles follow. It’s incredibly tactile and fluid, making you feel like you’re manipulating light itself. The music is ethereal and perfectly complements the stunning, abstract visuals.
As you progress, the puzzles introduce new elements like gravity wells, color-shifting barriers, and aggressive particles that you must avoid. It’s never overly stressful, but it requires a high degree of spatial reasoning and timing. Frost is the kind of game that showcases the unique potential of a touchscreen device. It’s elegant, innovative, and deeply relaxing. For anyone looking for a puzzle game that prioritizes wonder and beauty over high-pressure challenges, Frost is a must-play.

Frost is an award-winning puzzle game that invites players to interact with thousands of glowing particles in a serene, abstract world. By drawing paths with your fingers, you create flows that guide these spirits toward their home planets. Each level presents a new cosmic mystery, introducing unique mechanics like gravity, friction, and light-based barriers. With its minimalist design and atmospheric soundscape, Frost is a meditative journey that challenges the mind while soothing the senses.
Stunning, unique particle-based visuals
Intuitive and tactile drawing mechanics
Over 50 handcrafted, challenging levels
Atmospheric and relaxing sound design
Innovative puzzle mechanics unlike anything else on mobile
The particles have momentum. Instead of drawing a single straight line, try drawing wide, curving arcs to gently steer the swarm. This is especially helpful in levels with multiple 'planets,' as it allows you to split the flow of particles more efficiently.
These are the best new games for iPad and iPhone users.

We've had another good selection from puzzlers to emotive narratives, not to mention one big named game which won't be out until tomorrow.

Some barriers can only be passed if your particles have enough speed, while others require you to change the color of your particles by passing through specific 'light wells.' Pay attention to the subtle visual cues of the environment to understand how each element affects the flow.
Yes, Frost is a peaceful, non-violent game that encourages creativity and spatial thinking, making it excellent for players of all ages.
