USB Catch: play it in your browser
USB Catch is a quick arcade game for a short break. USB drives, bugs, hearts and stars fall from the top of the screen. Move the penguin to catch the drives, avoid the bugs and chase a score that gets harder to beat as the speed builds.
How to play USB Catch
- Press Start. Drag or tap on a phone, or use the arrow keys or A and D on a laptop.
- Catch drives to score. Every five in a row raises your multiplier, up to times five.
- Avoid bugs. Each one costs a life and resets your combo.
- Grab a heart for an extra life and a star for a six-second shield.
Tips to score higher
- Stay near the middle so you can reach both sides.
- Keep your combo alive. A times-five multiplier is where big scores come from.
- Save the shield for when the screen gets busy.
