DESCRIPTIONS

One-liner

Short (about 50 words)
----------------------
Neon Poly Duo is a head-to-head block puzzle game. Challenge a friend to
a three-round duel and play whenever you like; duels are asynchronous,
so nobody waits around. Round scores stay hidden until both players have
played, and the highest total across all three rounds takes the match.
Free to play, launching September 23, 2026 on iOS and Android.


Long (about 150 words)
----------------------
Neon Poly Duo is an upcoming head-to-head block puzzle game for iOS and
Android. Rotate, drag, and place glowing polyomino pieces to clear lines
against the clock, chaining combos and building heat for bigger scores.

Duels run three rounds and are fully asynchronous: challenge a friend by
username or get matched, jump into round 1 immediately, and play each
round on your own schedule. A rival's round score stays hidden until you
have played that round too, and the highest total across all three
rounds wins, so a rough round never knocks you out and a huge one can
steal the match.

Three intensities set the heat: Classic is pure skill with no power-ups,
Blitz runs faster clocks with limited power-ups, and Chaos opens up
power-ups and wild boards. Around the duel sit bot Rivals with their own
styles, a daily challenge, rotating events, a season pass, creature
ranks, leaderboards, and solo ghost races against friends' best runs.


KEY FEATURES
============

* Async three-round duels. Challenge a friend by username or get
  matched, then play each round whenever you like. Nobody waits around.

* Hidden scores. You cannot see a rival's round score until you have
  played that round too, so there is no soft targeting a known number.

* Highest total takes it. All three rounds count. A rough round never
  knocks you out, and a huge one can steal the match.

* Three intensities. Classic is pure skill with no power-ups, Blitz
  brings faster clocks and sharper pressure, and Chaos adds power-ups
  and wild boards.

* Power-ups earned by playing. Collect charges, then spend them the
  moment the board needs bending.

* Rivals: bot opponents with their own styles, ready for a best-of-three
  whenever you are.

* A fresh daily challenge, streaks, chests, rotating events (gauntlets,
  ladders, and Neon Block Parties), and a season pass with free and
  premium tracks.

* Creature ranks and an avatar studio, plus daily, weekly, and event
  leaderboards.
