Orbit - Playing with Gravity in IOS

A meditative physics puzzler

Walkthrough, Guilds, Tips on this special game

Our Expert Score

92/100

Orbit is a rare gem that manages to be both a challenging physics puzzle and a deeply meditative experience. The core loop of flicking a planet and watching its trail form a complex, geometric pattern around black holes is hypnotizing. It feels less like a game and more like a collaboration with gravity itself.

The community levels are the real star here. After finishing the 45 base levels, the sandbox and user-created content offer practically infinite gameplay. The minimalist aesthetic—bright colors against a deep black void—makes it one of the most visually pleasing games on the App Store. It’s a perfect example of 'less is more' in game design.
