Description
** Apple Design Award winner and iPad Game of the Year! **
Enter the Darwinian world of a galactic mote. To survive, absorb smaller organisms and grow—but beware of larger predators. Osmos features unique physics-based play, stellar graphics, and a hypnotic ambient soundtrack. Absorb or be absorbed!
“The ultimate ambient experience” — Gizmodo
“Beyond doubt, a work of genius" — GameAndPlayer.net
THE CRUX:
you must grow by absorbing smaller motes, but to propel yourself you must eject matter behind you, causing you to shrink. From this delicate balance, Osmos leads the player through floating playgrounds, competitive petri dishes, deep solar systems, and more.
“Named as iPad Game of the Year for a reason, Osmos is a fantastic game. A combination of physics, survival and classic eat em up” — WeDoCode
“Whether you're a child at heart who likes mucking about with single-cell organisms, or a strategist with a physics degree, this game will appeal to everyone.” — App Store review

Ratings and Reviews
Love This Game!!!
Calming! Gives you the ability speed up the game if desired. Love the graphics and music. Addictive and captivating without any stress.
Great game, but...
I shouldn't have to buy the iPad and iPhone versions separately.
I keep coming back to this game.
Hands down one of the simplest yet complex games I’ve played. It’s my favorite for a flight and now that my sons are older I’m getting them into it. I find it educational, calming, and engaging. The game hides how cerebral it is with calming music and beautiful animations. Definitely in my top 5 mobile games of all time.
