In FlipShip, your goal is deceptively simple: tilt your device to move towards enemies of the same color, then let your ship\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s automatic firing function take care of the rest. But watch out! Destroying enemies will raise your combo, but it won\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t score you points. For that you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll need to tap the screen, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153flipping\u00e2\u20ac\u009d your ship into its opposite color and flipping your enemies from predators to prey. Of course, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153flipping\u00e2\u20ac\u009d also reduces your combo back to zero, so you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll want to see just how long you can hang on without tapping that screen.<\/p>\n

Should you \u00e2\u20ac\u0153flip\u00e2\u20ac\u009d or should you flee? Score now or hold out for the promise of even bigger rewards?<\/p>\n

In FlipShip, the choice is yours.<\/p>\n
