About Curling

This is the most advanced curling simulator available for Android. Realistic physics provide a unique gaming experience. Whether you're a novice or pro curler, this game of 'chess on ice' will challenge and entertain you.

Since long before the 2010 Winter Olympics when curling attracted a lot of attention from the American audience, this popular winter sport has been a fixture of small towns and big cities around the world. Download the greatest curling app on Android and discover what everyone's been talking about.

Currently a local two player game, a multiplayer version is coming very soon! We want to provide you with only the highest quality curling experience and have been hard at work creating the ultimate curling app.

A quick explanation of gameplay follows.

As the skip, you'll see the house in fullscreen, place the arrow on the ice wherever you'd like. You can drag the target around the house and the area in front of the house. This target will provide a line for your rock to travel but does not guarantee the placement of the rock. Your rock will curl off that line so keep that in mind when you choose your target. Once you are satisfied with the placement of the arrow click the ok button.

Now it is time to throw your stone. Choose a handle for your rock by clicking either the left or right arrow. To throw your rock, drag your finger along the screen. Watch your speed at the top of the screen, and lift your finger when you have reached your target speed. This is where your curling skill really comes into play! As a rough guide, a rock thrown at less than 6.5 will not reach the hog line and a rock thrown greater than 8.5 will pass through the house.

Once you have released your rock, you can sweep by brushing your finger across the screen. This will allow your rock to travel farther and in a straighter line. Watch the bar at the top of the screen to see how far you are from the centre of the house and to track your current speed.

Once the rock has come to a complete stop the screen will return to skip view and you repeat the process.

What are users saying about Curling

Not bad at all if you just want to have fun. Upgrade suggestions would include increased curl as rocks slow down (in the last ten feet or so - they seem to straighten out), configurable 'action' after contact, that a rock can still curl after contact with another stone ( they react like billiard balls currently), and applause with cow bells after a good shot (for fun).

It's a nice game. I can't understand why people rate it so bad. It just do what it describes. If you don't like the (real) game, it's not related with developer, who did a good job.

R70%

Great game I love it. The only problem is that it keeps crashing half way through a game. Make it better by playing against computer. Thumbs up

Physics need work. Rock dont move this far when slow in real life. Very hard to get the weight right. Would be nice to have multi player.

I70%

Too many bugs... No FGZ

Y70%

To hard and boring

J70%
by J####:

Playing against the CPU would be fun. Awesome otherwise.

C70%
by C####:

What up? F/c before start up. Bogus!

S70%
by S####:

What's up with the last rock? I have had open tale outs on last rock for big ends and the app scores a one. Is this a glitch or a complete gaff?

C70%
by C####:

The last rock ends too quick as others pointed out. Looking at the web, the developer seems to have disappeared. Otherwise the game is good. Throwing a rock is a bit unnatural, this could be improved.

Z70%
by Z####:

Would be better if you could sweep other rocks after hits, and if it waited for all rocks to stop before next shot/scoring. Also, no free guard rule.

C70%
by C####:

Would be more fun if I could play against the computer. Also, there are some rule errors in this game. For example, I shouldn't be allowed to knock a stone out of the way during the first two turns.

C70%
by C####:

Has a nice foundation for a good curling simulation. Throwing the rock doesn't feel right. It's too hard to guage your speed consistently to be fun.

C70%
by C####:

Controls are awkward. Keep hoping it will get more intuitive.

C70%
by C####:

Minor things for this to become the best one on the app store: 1: For physics engine, there needs to be a higher coefficient of kinetic friction, these stones are sliding around way too easily, especially when they are hit by another stone. 2: Visual indication of when the user is sweeping

C70%
by C####:

Doesnt count right - exits quickly after end - cant see shot result - hope for some updates

R70%
by R####:

Was good to start with. Installed update and i got a no link error message. Poor show chaps

C70%
by C####:

Can't set rock speed on the EVO. Kept ending up with negative or tiny decimal rock speeds and having it tell me "rock hogged!"

G70%
by G####:

Just wished out had more control, and gave you time between ends to see how you scored.

C70%
by C####:

The world's most boring sport has now become the world's most boring app! Add hot babes in swimsuits as characters and it gets 5 stars!

C70%
by C####:

Need more controll. All shots feel the same and go unpredictable speed. Love the game. Definite keeper.
