It’s rated 4+ and currently has 172+ ratings on the App Store.
What Makes ZAGA Stand Out
The ZAGA begins. A gorgeous combination of quick reactions and stunning visuals for you to zig and zag your way through.
From the creators of Smove, comes the next classic arcade game. Two lines bounce back and forth. Can you control them? Tap to change directions, match the colors to collect points, and definitely definitely avoid the obstacles.
Collect orbs to unlock new themes! From the far reaches of space, to the calming waves of the sea, zag your way through uncharted environments.
Life isn't a journey, it's a ZAGA.
This Action game offers engaging gameplay and regular updates for mobile players.

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
This game is awesome! We enjoy playing it every day and Ive gotten pretty dang good. Its a hard learning curve and it takes time to get used to which we enjoyed. It would be cool to add in some other features/game modes/levels or more themes, but we still love it the way it is.
This is the best game yet it has a very addictive groove to it it just need a little extra. Like how color switch added bonus levels instead of just doing the same thing again and again add something new . We play this game everyday and have fun with it continue to improve thank you for the wonderful game.
The game is good, very smooth easy to understand, and well made. Our only complaint is that after a while due to its difficulty, it gets repetitive and a bit too hard to play.
This game is good BUT WAY TO MANY ADDS ITS ONE FRICKIN ADD JUST ONE.
It's a really fun game whether your just in a long car ride or sitting in a doctors office. But we had this app on our phone for so long that we bought all the new "themes". The only thing we'd change; is to add more themes because we've stopped playing the game, it became boring.
It's great, but ads pop up DURING the game and we can't play.
We have had this game on our phone for over a year. It is pretty fun and convenient when we're riding the train or just waiting around. The only negative thing is that even though we bought the game, we started getting ads again a couple months ago. We're deleting it today just for that. Bad move on their part. Greed is an ugly thing.
The game itself is awesome but these ads are so annoying.
Great app a lot of fun but could you some improvement its lagging and every time we click an add pops up and we can't get very far.
We loved the concept of this game but it is so laggy it is almost impossible to play.
Addictive, catchy background music.
This game for sure is a great work and worth to download it. Im wondering why it is not in a top chart with lots of reviews!!! With no doubt it is way more addicting and fun than many other games. Thank u guys.
This game really is great. It is supper fun and is totally worth downloading. Totally a 5 star no doubt about it. If you are thinking about getting it you really should.
This game replaced Tetris for us – we are extremely picky about games but this is the kind of game we like. Challenging enough to keep us interested, but simple enough that we don't have to actually "think". When we just need to zone out and take a break, Zaga fits the bill.
FANTASTIC; CANT SAY ANYTHING MORE.
We're enjoying this game a lot more than we though after the first few plays. If you're going to play the game for a while we highly recommend throwing the makers a few bones to get rid of the ads. Although they probably made more money from us accidentally clicking them while playing.
Though this game is quite simplistic in the way that it is designed and played, it is still quite challenging without being impossible makes it a no-brainer to give this here game app a five-star rating. Thank you ever so much for creating such a wonderful game! Please keep up the phenomenal work.
This is a super fun and addicting game. Knowing that you can unlock themes is keeping us playing. We gotta get to those new levels.
Had a world record high score of 7 million but it got taken down. Fun game tho.
Love this game. So simple. Very clever & entertaining. Exercises your brain and trains your eye coordination, switching focus and attention. Brilliant. Our highest score after one day 12,962.
Simple, easy to learn and easy at the beginning. Gets harder as you are able to go longer. Has ads but they are just picture ads after each round.
This is an awesome game you have to try. It's so addicting and fun.
Fantastic game to pass many hours of spare time.
Feels like crystal meth , because it's soooo addicting.
Great game, can be very challenging and requires quick reflexes.
Addicting and really good. Hope there are more themes and challenges.
Entertains for long car rides and when you have nothing better to do.
Pretty fun, tough to keep track of both but the challenge is entertaining.
Super addicting and really fun, make you rage and then want to play again, haven't had a game this good since duet and this game is just as good, if not better! Definitely get it and try it out.
Simple enough to just jump in and play but challenging too. Smove theme is our favorite.
It's a time waster and we love the cool music.
We like the idea it won't us download it do.
At first it seems easy but the strategy gets harder and harder. Very addictive. It's a newer version of Smove.we like that! Charlotte, age 7.
Love getting in the zone with zaga! The themes really change the feel of the gameplay and every session feels like progress toward a new experience. Can't wait for more themes.
So easy to learn and addictive. We love the music and look of this game. Super fun.
This is our rating. Stop asking us to rate your app.
Great addicting game! Can't stop playing. Get downloading.
Thanks to the Simple Machine guys for another addicting game.
Another great arcade game from Simple Machine, can't wait to see what these guys do next.
This game is really fun. Like, REALLY fun. So fun we've been playing for a few months. But that's the problem. It has taken from day one to get 2,200 orbs for a new theme. Just lower the amount of orbs you need to get a theme and this would be a five star app.
Similar to the game DUET but it's still a good game.
After we've been playing this for about ten minutes (sometimes even less) the frame rate drops significantly and makes it hard to play the game. Please fix.
Involves focus and reflexes we recommend to everyone.
It's a great, fun, and challenging game…but its continuously lagging when we're playing and unresponsive. If fixed the game would be so much better.
This game is so buggy it is considered infested, and the orbs are extremely distracting.
We'd give it 5 stars if it didn't continually ask us to rate it, even after we have already rated it. So here, have 1 star because you wanted a rating so bad.
We love this game. The only reason for the one star is that they keep bugging us to make a review. Well they got what they wanted ;).
We don't mind the ads, but the game just doesn't GO anywhere. Maybe endless games aren't for us, but if new challenges were appearing now and then, we think we'd enjoy it.
As soon as started the app: try Game of War. Immediately, during the tutorial, framerate dropped. Perhaps it's our iPhone5s. What we know for sure is that DURING the game, another add popped up. When we cancelled out, we were met with the game over screen. Game over indeed.
