Your only purpose — go deeper.

ROOT is a one-handed survival game where you draw your root through layers of underground soil with your finger. Guide it around rocks, dodge patrolling grubs, avoid acid pools, and collect glowing nutrients as the world scrolls faster and faster beneath you.

Simple to learn. Brutally hard to master.

─── HOW TO PLAY ───
Hold and drag your finger to grow your root downward. The soil never stops scrolling — if your root tip disappears off the top of the screen, you lose a life. Survive as long as you can and reach as deep as possible.

─── COLLECT NUTRIENTS ───
- Water drops — restore energy and boost your score
- Phosphorus crystals — rare yellow gems worth big points
- Iron shards — hard to find, even harder to ignore

Chain collections back-to-back to trigger COMBO multipliers — 2x, 3x, up to 4x your score. Keep the chain alive or lose it all.

─── SURVIVE THE HAZARDS ───
- Rocks — grow around them or lose a life
- Grubs — they patrol and bite on contact
- Acid pools — instant dissolve, no second chances

─── GO DEEPER ───
Three layers of increasingly hostile soil await:

TOPSOIL — loose earth, gentle start
CLAY BELT — dense and sticky, hazards multiply
STONE LAYER — ancient rock, tight gaps, faster scroll

Each layer shifts the world's color, sound, and difficulty. Every meter deeper is harder than the last.

─── FEATURES ───
- Pure free-draw root control — your finger, your path
- Procedurally generated world — every run is unique
- Combo multiplier system — chain nutrients for massive scores
- Depth records — always chasing your personal best
- "So close" death screen — you'll always want one more run
- Revive with a life after watching a short ad
- No internet required — play anywhere, anytime
- Completely free to play

─── DESIGNED FOR ONE HAND ───
Portrait mode. Short sessions. Perfect for commutes, queues, or anywhere you have 60 seconds to spare. One more run never takes long — but it always calls you back.
