How to play Helix Drop
- Drag left or right to spin the tower. The ball bounces on its own — line up a gap to drop through.
- Reach the golden pad to clear the level: 30 hand-built towers, then endless ones. Stars: clear it, take no red hit, grab every gem.
- Red segments are deadly. Later rings spin by themselves and some red blinks on and off — watch the flicker.
- Fall through 3 rings in a row to become a fireball that smashes the next ring, even red. Collect gems; upgrades add shields and bigger smashes.
