Skins: tap the new button in the top left corner to give the board a whole new look. Star tiles twinkle and draw constellations, Rainbow paints the background as you break tiles, Gear spins faster as your combo grows, and Cat watches the ball. Classic stays free. A fresh look for the whole game: redrawn bricks with a lit edge, a living background that your balls stir up as they fly, glowing balls that squash on every bounce, and special bricks you can tell apart at a glance. In game leaderboards: score or level, friends or everyone, the top ten or the places around you. Runs that used a replay token get their own boards, so the main ones stay for runs played without tokens. Your run, best score and replay tokens now follow your Apple Account to all your devices. Zen Brick now speaks German, French, Spanish, Japanese and Brazilian Portuguese. Settings has a new Bricks page that explains every special brick, plus a Report a bug button and a link to Bluesky.

• Every run now gets a free continue after game over. The board clears and you keep your level and score • Replay tokens let you continue up to three more times in a run. Find them on the game over screen or in Settings

• Game Center leaderboards are now live. Finish a run to post your high score and your highest level • Fixed the fast-forward speed going back to 2× every time you reopened the game. Set your speed once more under Settings > Speed and it will stick • Fixed a rare case where a crash right after opening the game could bring back your saved run as an empty board

• New: a guided tutorial points at the launcher, the bricks, the danger line and the buttons, and teaches you by having you take your first real shot — switch it off when you're done, or back on any time from Settings • New: choose which special bricks appear — Bomb, Vortex, Anvil and Duplicator can each be switched off in Settings to customise your game • Turning off a brick type turns off online leaderboard participation • Settings is now split into Game, Audio, Speed and About tabs, so it fits on screen • Fixed a crash that could hang the game and force it to close when a Vortex brick exploded, especially on older iPhones • Fixed balls escaping or pushing past the side walls at the fastest fast-forward speed • Fixed the game occasionally opening squeezed into a corner of the screen with grey bars around it • Fixed the What's New window opening off the edge of the screen, and being impossible to close • Fixed the Settings sliders showing "Label" instead of their names, with their handles stuck at the far left • Low Power Mode now stays on (or off) after you switch apps — it used to silently reset itself • Fixed the Settings panel sometimes freezing the game with no panel visible • Fixed fast-forward staying on into the next run if you were holding it when a run ended • Aiming now feels the same on every device — how far you drag no longer depends on screen size • Smoother performance during big explosions and fast-forward

Leaderboards, new bricks, and a juicier feel. GAME CENTER LEADERBOARDS Zen Brick now has leaderboards. Compete for the highest score and the highest level you can reach, and see where you land against everyone else. Open them any time from Settings or right from the game-over screen. NEW BRICKS Meet the Duplicator: a special brick that splits every ball that hits it into two, fanning them out in a clean Y — one ball in, two out. And anvils now drop with real weight, slamming down onto whatever's below with a dusty thud and a subtle shake. JUICIER TO PLAY Balls now trail a soft glowing comet ribbon, the launcher kicks back and pulses as each ball fires, and a mint dot drifts in to preview your next ball as you aim. Pulling back to aim gives a few escalating haptic taps, so you can feel your power build. SETTINGS & POLISH Settings opens from a crisp new gear button in the top-right corner, and now fully pauses the game so a stray touch can't fire a shot. It also shows the current version and build number — plus a batch of smaller fixes and refinements. Free, with no ads and no tracking — always.

Fixed background fog rendering.
