Thimbley Tin

You drop buttons into a sewing tin. Two of the same size touch, they stitch into one bigger button. That's the game. The catch is the tin.

It sits on a cotton spool, and it leans toward whichever side is heavier. Pile everything on the left and the whole tin rocks left, the buttons slide, and your neat stack turns into a heap against the wall. So every drop does two jobs: find a matching button, and keep the weight balanced.

How it plays
– Slide your finger to aim the button hanging from the thimble. Let go to drop it.
– A dotted guide and a ghost outline show where it will land.
– Two buttons of one size stitch together. Eleven sizes, from a tiny Pin pip up to the Grand Brooch.
– Stitch while the tin sits level and the points double.
– Leave a button poking over the rim for two seconds and the tin is full. Card, score, done.

What's in it
– Open tin: endless. Play until it spills, then try to beat your best card.
– Daily pattern: one fixed drop order per day, the same for everyone who plays it that day. Goal: stitch a Blazer button. Fewer drops, more stars. Finish days in a row to build a streak.
– Button box: every size that lands in your tin for the first time gets sewn onto a card. Eleven slots.
– Four tins to put on the table. Three of them are earned: hit a score, stitch a Duffle button, or finish three daily patterns.
– Logbook with your best card, tins opened, stitches made and your recent runs.

Small things that matter
– Watercolour art, painted buttons, each size with its own hole pattern and rim, so sizes read without relying on colour.
– Plops, stitches and chimes made for this game. Light haptics on drops and stitches.
– Sound, Haptics and Reduce motion switches. Reduce motion turns off the shaking and drifting.
– A lamplit look for dark mode.

No login screens, no timers nagging you to come back, nothing to buy. The game never goes online: there is no network permission in it, and your cards and buttons live in its storage on this phone.
