About
IconRush is a quiz game about the Architecture Icons — the 300+ little squares you see in every architecture diagram and half of every slide deck. Can you name them? It runs entirely on your phone. No account, no sign-up, no ads, no analytics, no tracking, no backend. Not "we anonymise your data", not "we only collect crash reports". None. IconRush has no backend, and our audited code includes no network path — nothing leaves your device, because there is nowhere for it to go. FIVE WAYS TO PLAY • Classic Drill — 10 questions, four choices. Both directions: name the icon, or pick the icon from the name. The second one is much harder than it sounds, because icons in the same category share a colour and only the glyph tells them apart. • Blitz 30 — 30 seconds. Streak multiplier up to x3. Skipping costs you three seconds. • Endless — three lives, no timer, and the questions get meaner the longer you survive. How far can you get before you flame out? • Icon Rain — icons drift across the screen; tap the one you were asked for before it escapes. Same-category decoys arrive at level 2. • Pass & Play — 2 to 6 players on one phone. Everyone gets the same questions in a shuffled order, so the leaderboard at the end is actually fair. BUILT FOR MEETUPS Every run ends with a share card you can post — a rendered image, not a screenshot, in whichever theme you're using. There's also a stat card: one screen with your handle, your lifetime numbers, your badges and your streak. Hold up the phone and it reads across a table. At a user group or a conference that is the whole ceremony — organisers hand out awards by looking at it. First person in the room to reach Icon Rain Level 3, the 10,000-questions club, that sort of thing. A DAILY CHALLENGE THAT'S ACTUALLY THE SAME FOR EVERYONE Ten questions a day, generated from the date itself. Everyone in the world gets the identical set — no server involved. So "9/10 today" means exactly the same thing to you and to the person you're arguing with in Slack. SIX THEMES Midnight (console at 2am), Classic, Sakura, Miami Sunrise (synthwave, with a sunrise gradient on the Blitz timer), and 8-Bit, which pixelates every icon in real time and swaps the whole interface to a pixel typeface. The sixth theme, us-east-1, cannot be selected. It has to be earned by failing badly enough at Endless mode. You'll know when it happens. STATS THAT DON'T RESET Lifetime totals, per-category accuracy (it will tell you that you are bad at Analytics), recognition coverage, category mastery badges, and a streak calendar. There is no reset button anywhere. What you've earned is what you show. Because there is no account, your stats live on the phone. iOS keeps them in the Keychain, so a reinstall usually gets them back — but they do not move between iOS and Android, and there is no export file. Settings has a Delete my data action if you want them gone; it erases everything and cannot be undone. ACCESSIBILITY Reduced-motion mode across every screen, OS font scaling respected, generous tap targets. The game is colourblind-safe by construction: icon shape carries the answer, never colour alone. PERMISSIONS The app asks for nothing when you install it. Exactly one optional permission exists, and it is requested in context: notifications, only if you turn on the daily reminder. Say no and everything else works exactly the same. No camera, no location, no contacts. Free. No in-app purchases, no subscription, no "pro" tier. There is no monetisation here at all. — Icons © Amazon Web Services, Inc.
