A new Stats screen: your best score up top, how far up the ladder you are as two bars, and your badges as medals. Tapping X during a round now pauses it while it asks whether to leave. Bigger screens get more room. On an iPad in landscape and on an open iPhone Duo, Levels and Stats sit side by side, and a round gets a scoreboard beside it. With a keyboard, Enter or Space starts a round and Esc pauses it. Halloween Night is back from 17 October.

Halloween Night: every year from 17 October to 2 November, the daily challenge moves under a big moon, the tacos wear witch hats and the bombs turn into grumpy rotten pumpkins. Catch 10 tacos on Halloween Night to keep the pumpkin basket for good. Settings has a new Rate this app row, for grown-ups who would like to leave a rating. The banner no longer nudges the menu buttons as it loads.

A smoother start, and more control over ads. Opening the game now feels like arriving rather than navigating: the title screen fades up out of the splash instead of sliding in from the side. Players in Europe, the UK and Switzerland will find Ad privacy options in Settings — a way to change the ad choices you made when you started, at any time. Everything is still free, and the only way into a level is still beating the one below it.

Five new languages, and a game that fits every screen. Taco Rain now speaks twelve languages: Spanish, Latin American Spanish, Portuguese, Italian and Polish join the seven that were already here. The playfield now fills the whole screen. On an iPad it used to sit in a letterboxed column with bars either side; now the sky runs to the edges and the clouds stay where they belong. Vibration can be switched off in Settings, and Reduce Motion now follows your device setting — the clouds settle down when you ask them to. Also fixed: badge names no longer clip, and the how-to-play card fits at the largest text size in every language. Everything is still free, and the only way into a level is still beating the one below it.

Forty new levels, and a new round every day. The ladder now runs to fifty, across five worlds. Deep Fryer fills the sky with burritos. Dry Season takes the power-ups away one at a time. The Minefield is mostly bombs, and hands you the tools to survive them. The Feast is all of it at once. Today's Challenge gives everyone the same round, wherever they are playing. Play it as often as you like — there is no streak to keep up and nothing to miss. Six of the badges now unlock a basket to play with, and Gentler play widens the basket and slows the tacos down for younger players, with its own separate scores. Everything is still free, and the only way into a level is still beating the one below it.

Five new levels. Clear Taco Tornado and the ladder keeps going: Guacamole Geyser, Jalapeño Jungle, Churro Cyclone, Cactus Canyon and Taco Eclipse. They fill the sky rather than just speeding it up, and every taco is worth more the higher you climb. All five are free, and the only way in is still beating the level below.
