Sticker Ride is a short and sticky puzzler that sees you evading all manner of traps, coming soon

by Hannah Feb 19,2025

Shortbread Games' upcoming title, Sticker Ride, is a unique puzzle game where players guide a sticker along a treacherous path, dodging deadly traps to reach its destination. The gameplay revolves around precise timing and strategic movement, as the sticker moves significantly faster forward than backward, creating a challenging dynamic.

Obstacles include buzzsaws, flying knives, and explosives, demanding careful maneuvering to avoid destruction. The core mechanic is simple: navigate the sticker to the end point for successful placement. However, the speed differential adds a layer of complexity, requiring players to anticipate and react to the hazards.

While not a narrative-driven experience, Sticker Ride follows the successful formula of Shortbread Games' previous releases like Packed!?, offering a concise yet engaging gameplay loop. The game's innovative concept and polished execution make it a noteworthy addition to the mobile indie puzzle game scene. It harkens back to a time of mobile game experimentation, proving that smaller, well-crafted experiences can be just as rewarding.

Currently in its pre-release phase, Sticker Ride has already generated excitement with an early trailer and screenshots. It's scheduled for release on February 6th for iOS. For those seeking similar puzzle game experiences, check out our top 25 puzzle game lists for iOS and Android.
