Tap to let go. Fly into the next ring. 30 levels to the flag, and a daily course that is the same for everyone.
Latchkite: one-tap arcade game online free
Latchkite is a free one-tap swing game for your browser. Your kite whirls round a peg; tap to let go and it flies straight along its swing. Fly through the next catch ring to latch on, or lose it to the wind. Clear 30 short levels to the goal flag, with wind, drifting pegs, flip pegs, snap pegs and storm clouds along the way, or chase a high score on the daily course that is the same for everyone. Restart is instant.
How to play Latchkite
- Your kite circles the current peg on its line.
- Tap (or press Space) to let go: the kite flies straight from where it was.
- Pass through the dashed ring of a peg to latch on; in a level, reach the goal flag to clear it.
- Clear a level fast for up to 3 stars; hold on too long and the line frays.
- Share your result with a link that lets a friend fly the same level or daily course and try to beat you.
Controls

Latchkite tips and strategy
- Let go when the kite points slightly ahead of the next ring, not straight at it.
- Watch the fray ring round the peg: it tells you how long you can wait.
- Skips are risky but worth double; take them only when the angle is clean.
- Find a rhythm: most pegs are caught on the same part of the swing.
