About the game

Ziggy in a Balloon is a gentle one-finger flying game for young children: hold to fan the flame and rise, let go to float down.

Ziggy is a little green dragon with a big red-and-cream hot-air balloon. Children hold a finger on the screen to make him fan the burner and climb, and let go to drift gently down. That's the whole control scheme - easy enough to learn in seconds, with plenty of room to get good at it.

Each level is a calm flight across the sky: through the gaps between grumpy storm clouds and swinging kites, past busy birds, collecting shiny star coins on the way to the flag. Five worlds - the Sunny Meadow, the Misty Mountains, Seaside Town, Candy Land and the Starry Night - hold fifteen levels each, and every world ends in its own finale.

Star coins buy new balloons and outfits in the Hangar, a Daily Challenge brings a night flight every day, and Ziggy cheers the player on out loud. Little ones mode, on by default, gives three hearts, a slower flight and wider gaps. The game has no ads, collects no data and plays fully offline.
