How to play VECTASAND

Pour glowing sand into glass, draw patterns with a skewer, and keep every jar.

Goal: Pour glowing sand into a glass, one colour at a time: hold to pour, slide to aim the stream and tap a sand pot for a new colour. Push the SKEWER down through the layers to draw patterns, then CORK the glass to keep it on your shelf. Every order brings a new glass, a new scene and three wishes, and each wish you grant earns a star; stars unlock new colours, glasses, special sands and scenes. TODAY'S JAR is the same for everyone. Nothing is timed and nothing can fail.

Controls: Touch: hold and slide · Keys: ← → aim, Space pours, 1-8 colours, S skewer, C corks
