About this app
Path of Ink is a fast, beautiful vertical arcade game inspired by Japanese Sumi-e ink painting and brush calligraphy. Run up the walls as a nimble ink ninja, leap between opposing sides, and slice the numbered lanterns in ascending order to chain massive combos and ignite Fever Mode — all while staying ahead of the rising ink flood below. One missed beat and the ink takes you. MODES • Climb — the endless signature run. How high can you rise? • Daily Ritual — one seeded challenge each day, the same for every player. Keep your streak alive. • Paths — curated star-mastery trials across ten hand-crafted courses. • Challenges — mix and match modifiers and build your own run. COMPETE • Global Game Center leaderboards — climb the world rankings in Climb and the Daily Ritual. A GAME THAT RESPECTS YOU • No ads. No tracking. No nonsense. • Free to play, with a single optional one-time unlock — no subscriptions, no loot boxes. • Thoughtful accessibility: haptics, a reduced-ink mode, and a left-handed layout. Beautifully rendered on textured rice paper with bold black and crimson brush strokes, Path of Ink turns split-second reflexes into living calligraphy. Find your flow. Paint your path.
