About Smash the Flies

This is a cool, easy, and fun to play, endless game. Tap or Click on the Flies with your fingers to smash them, before they leave the screen. But don't tap the red one, or you finish the game! Be fast and quick to smash all of them and achieve high scores.

How to play Smash the Flies

Nothing here needs explaining twice. You will want a keyboard for this one — the arrow keys / WASD carry most of it, and the table below has the rest. It fills the player in landscape, so use the fullscreen button on desktop and turn your phone sideways on mobile. Expect the first attempt to be a write-off; that is normal here.

Why it is worth playing
