Fling! is a Family/Puzzle game from Bevin Software OU, first launched in 8th August 2009.

What Makes Fling! Stand Out
The #1 TOP PAID APP for weeks in UK, Australia, Canada, NZ, Holland, …!
TOP 10 in paid apps in US for a month!
Considered by many the best puzzle game ever made for the iPhone!
The latest puzzle-sensation from the makers of Fuzzle has finally arrived after over one year in development!
Featuring 10,000s of unique puzzles, such that no two puzzles you encounter are ever the same, and split into 30 levels of increasing difficulty, Fling guarantees you many long hours of puzzling fun!
Each puzzle has a single, unique solution, and is solved by simply flinging (pushing) the furballs, and watching them bump each other off the edge of the screen, until only one is left.
FOUR GAME MODES:
-
FREE-PLAY mode – play at your own pace, while the game tracks your stats and keeps track of all puzzles solved/failed, allowing you to browse your entire puzzle-solving history and go back to any previously solved/unsolved puzzle to attempt to (re-)solve it!
-
ARCADE mode – race against the clock, solving as many puzzles of ever-increasing difficulty as you can before your time runs out!
-
CHALLENGE mode – solve sets of puzzles within a given amount of time to progress, while trying to beat your personal best times for each level!
-
FRENZY mode – the all new survival mode – keep the board from filling up by flinging same-colored balls off the board!
OTHER KEY FEATURES:
- HINTs and UNDOs are provided to help you solve the puzzles when stuck
- Game music, which automatically switches itself off at start when playing other music on your iPod/iPhone
- Local+Global high-scores lists, as well as GameCenter leaderboards + achievements
- Automatic saving of games – always come back to the game right where you left it!

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Still just a fun game to keep the brain active.
Really like this game makes you figure out moves without being overly difficult. Please come back to Android.
We love playing this, and have had it for years. Its a lot of fun, and the levels have been gradually getting a little tougher. We can still beat them, but it takes us longer, and thats good If we want to go back to the easier ones, we can do that any time Excellent design, really attractive, and if we want to do something, its clear how to get info or go where we want to go This is one of our all-time fav games, the keeper we wont let go.
Though it appears that the developers have vacated this game, Im so happy that its still available. No ads and nicely challenging. It is a well designed and engaging game.
We absolutely love this game. We have been playing it for at least a couple years now, and it offers great challenges. Keep up the excellent work.
Ive been playing this game for years and we still love it.
Best game out to assist with critical thinking. Really enjoy the mind twists.
Low stress problem puzzles. We love it.
Ive been playing this off and on for years. Its always fun to play while watching tv.
That managed to keep us engaged, entertained and that was consistently enjoyable. Calming, meditative while infuriating, satisfying when you solve it. Truly a joyous game.
Have played this game for years. Some puzzles take us a few weeks to come back to. Eventually, our brain tries something new, or sees patterns it didnt see before. We like that we can leave the game and come back to our current level22.
Ive been playing this for years and it still holds up!! Our go-to puzzle game that is so fun to restart every now and then when it gets too challenging. Improving over time is the best part. Love this game.
We were stuck on that level for years. Thanks for keeping the game maintained. We needed it.
If you think too hard, you can be become more confused. Use lessons learned to previous mistakes and conquer your games. When we got to level 27 had to delete our history and start over from scratch so that it didnt blow our mind. It isnt so fun at the higher level so we didnt wand it to blow our head off. LoL have lots of fun with these puzzles. By all means take breaks along the way.
Some puzzles can stretch your brain.
Exorcizes your mind and makes time fly. Super fun and gets more challenging as you go.
We love this game, have had it for a few years now. It keeps our brain juices flowing and the cute characters keeps the game fun.
We think we must've started playing Fling when it first came out, and it's still our favorite brain game of all time. It's the one we just keep coming back to, and we can't imagine being without it! Try it, you'll love it.
Had to look back at old apps to find. Unique and challenging.
The concept is simple but the levels can be challenging.
This was one of the first iPhone games Ive ever played and still do today. Love it.
This is one of the best games we ever downloaded for our iPhone. It is a simple game that really makes you have to figure it out more and more as you get higher in levels. The graphics are perfect and we adored it from the moment we first saw the icon. Hopefully that never changes because silly as it may sound, it just makes us happy :) Thanks for such a great game.
Oldie but goldie!! Dont miss it.
Great game when you have a few minutes to spare. We love that after purchasing the game we dont need to spend any money! How refreshing.
It was relaxing 10years ago and hasnt aged a bit.
This is a very challenging game, Although the early levels are not too difficult and will get you started eventually you have to anticipate moves in advance in order to get through it.
We play level 13 over and over trying to get a really good time. Some puzzles are still difficult for us so we don't want to advance yet.
We have been looking for this game for so long and we missed it so much. It is simple and nice and make us happy when we play it.
It is a great anytime game and becomes more and more challenging. Great brain game.
We play this game about 30 minutes a day and it is very hard to put down because it is so fun to play. Its kinda like chess with a little flair. You do have to concentrate a lot more as you move up in levels but thats what we like about it.
This was one of the first iPhone games Ive ever played and still do today. Love it.
This is the perfect go-to game. Whether you just have a couple of minutes to kill or youre looking to settle in and play for a while, Fling is always there for you, it always works, and it never fails to keep your attention. It can be very challenging but is never impossible; it always seems to be just what you were looking for in entertainment. Ive had it for years now and play it practically every day even for just a minute or two, though it has certainly kept us occupied for much much longer! The fur balls are so cute and hilarious we wish you would make little stuffed ones, we would definitely have them all on our bed,!,.
This is a cute game. The little fling guys are adorable and the puzzles are challenging enough to be interesting without being frustrating.
We started playing this game when game apps first came out. Ive played many puzzle games and keep coming back to this one due to its simplicity. Provides great logic practice.
Instantly loved playing this puzzle game. Some games are easy, some are very difficult. You can earn hints along the way to get you through when you are stuck. We like the expressions the fluffy balls have. Have had this game for years now and still find it engaging.
Ive enjoyed this game for years. Good way to stretch your mind.
Played this game years ago and enjoyed it on our iPod touch. Im always looking for good puzzle games that are challenging. Through the years ive tried to find others but most games these days have mechanisms that encourage you to pay as you go or you have to watch A LOT of ads. Fling doesnt do any of that! So Im back at it all these years later and still enjoying it.
Favorite game for us and for our daughter :).
Excellent puzzle challenge. We recommend this game to everyone that loves a good brain challenge.
Been playing off an on for years, fun game.
This program has been bug free for us for all the years we have had it. We love it.
This game is challenging but not overwhelming. We work with it a few days, advancing, and then can come back to it weeks or months later and enjoy it more. We really like that it can be relaxing while being challenging; there is no time pressure. It is good for so many ages…and yes, the little fur balls and sounds are fun.
This is that one game that is always working with zero bugs. Ive been playing for years and love the challenge that this game provides. There are different game modes but our brain needs free play mode. It is a great exercise for your mind and the little fur balls are adorable. We swear they roll their eyes at us when we make a wrong move. They are so lovable we just want to hug them. Seriously this game is extremely addicting. Look up once in a while or youll get lost in it.
Great game. Just frustrating enough. This was our first puzzle-logic game, and Im still enjoying it. Great updates. Thank you for a fun diversion.
Been playing this since it was released and its a great game offering different modes & free play to take your time. Each level changes to another challenge, but it does not get super difficult or frustrating along the way. Good graphics & nice update allowing option to sync progress via iCloud between devices. – Had ALL themes when first released on older & now incompatible iOS device, now locked requesting in app purchase, maybe since the ability to sync not offered in early days. Ill post an update if resolved. Still a fun game & deserves 5 star rating.
We love the game but we lost our high level when we had to reset our phone. We couldnt get it back. . Other than that its great.
We downloaded this game several years ago and had forgotten about it. We tutor 2 boys who are 6 years old. They love to take a break from their lessons to play this game. It has reminded us how much fun we used to have playing it.
This is a really fun game! We remember playing this when we were young so much!Some are easy and some are hard though! Every time we use a hint, Im like,It was so obvious! How did we not figure this? Download this its so fun.
Holds our attention. Easy to pick up where you left off the last time. And now 64 bit! THANKS.
Nice game to play & kill some time.
