New in 1.1: easy drag-to-steer controls, a gentle start that speeds up over time and whirlpools that pull you in!
Hold. Drag. Guide the paper boat.
Ripple Drift is a fast, relaxing river game. Hold your finger on the water and drag left or right to steer your little paper boat – gentle ripples spread behind it as it glides. Dodge rocks, drifting logs and whirlpools, and see how far you can drift.

• The river starts calm and slowly gets faster – stay sharp
