SILLY GAME GUIDES.

What this genre is, which games it sits next to, and why a falling pickle counts as a one-tap arcade.

What kind of game is Pickle Drop?

Casual silly tap-timing arcade. Comparable to Flappy Bird, Stack, and Helix Jump — not a match-3 or an RPG.

Casual silly games

Short, funny, one-rule games you play in a minute. Examples, what they share, and where Pickle Drop fits.

One-button iPhone games

One tap. No joystick. Flappy Bird, Piano Tiles, Stack, and a pickle that falls off a building.

Games like Flappy Bird

Easy to start, rude to master, funny when you fail. Timing games with a splat instead of a pipe.

Tap timing games

Hit the window, miss the splat. How tap-timing works, classic examples, and the catch-zone loop.

One-handed iPhone games

Couch games. Commute games. Hold the phone, tap with a thumb, put it down when the toast pops.
