How to play Skip Day
- Throw
Pull back and release to send the stone low and fast across the lake. Angle and power set how it lands.
- Tap each touchdown
Tap as the stone meets the water. Hitting the closing ring gives a Perfect, which keeps speed and spin and builds your streak multiplier.
- Hop and score
Swipe up to hop over logs and ducks. You score for every skip, every coin collected and every metre travelled, with a big bonus for reaching the far shore.
Tips to improve
- Watch the ring, not the stone. The tap that matters is the one as the ring closes.
- A flatter, faster throw gives more skips than a high one.
- Keep a Perfect streak alive before you go for coins: speed is worth more than a detour.
- Try each of the eight stones. Heavier stones hold their line in wind; lighter ones skip more often.
- Play the Daily Lake last, once you are warmed up. Only your best of three throws counts.

About DayDimes Skip Day
Skip Day is a stone skipping game you can play in seconds and keep improving at for weeks. Pull back to throw, then tap the moment your stone touches the water. A perfectly timed tap keeps its speed and spin and builds a streak, so one great throw can cross the whole lake. The game learns your timing, centres the Perfect window on it and tightens it as you get better.
