Description by MapleScot Development (from Google Play)

Ready, Steady..... DROP!
- The Shaft is a fast paced and challenging obstacle avoidance game in the style of old 80's PC games, but updated for the 21st century.
- Pilot your drop-ship down a long and winding shaft by using the intuitive motion controls.
- Tilt your phone to navigate with thrusters
- Touch the screen to fire the retros and slow down for tight pinches and sharp corners.
- Try to go as fast as you can without crashing.

How deep can you go?
- Compare your stats with friends on the Google Play Leaderboards
- Play for achievements like 'The Mile Deep Club', and 'Early Climax'.

Great for long commutes, boring lectures, mind-numbing business meetings, or even bad dates - why not nip to the bathroom for some quick satisfaction with The Shaft.
Whether you have just a minute or hours to kill The Shaft is the game you need on your phone.

**We know The Shaft can be highly addictive, but please do not play while driving or operating heavy machinery**

Go Fast, Go Deep, Go Hard... or Go Home... Get THE SHAFT.

Comments on The Shaft for Android

★★★★★ Interesting It reminded of old age pc game, really very challenging and interesting to play :-)

★★★★★ Great fun I admit that I'm a little biased, but I love playing this game. It's very challenging to play on a moving train, but that just makes it even more addictive.

★★★★★ Abyss theme Jolly good drop into an abyss game.

★★★★★ Very addictive game. Great if you have only a couple of minutes of free time or all day to kill.
