How to play

  1. Press Play to begin.
  2. Drag or move your finger or mouse across the game to steer the basket. On a keyboard, use the left and right arrows (or A and D).
  3. Catch brown acorns for 1 point and rare golden acorns for 5.
  4. You have three lives. Catching a pinecone costs a life, and so does letting a brown acorn hit the ground.
  5. Things fall faster and pinecones turn up more often as time goes on. Press P to pause.

About the game

Acorn Catch is a short arcade game for a spare minute. You hold a woven basket at the foot of a tall oak, and acorns tumble through the leaves towards you. Slide left and right to gather them, but watch out for the pinecones mixed in with the crop.

The opening seconds are relaxed, which gives you time to get a feel for the basket. After that the pace builds steadily: things fall faster, they arrive more often and more of them are pinecones. Golden acorns are worth five points and well worth a dash across the screen. Your best score is saved in your browser so you can try to beat it later.
