Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

It’s hammer time! Arcade game connoisseurs, get ready for an addictive tapping experience as you launch into Nail It, The Mascoteer’s freshest title off the press. Take control of a powerful hammer as you set out to successfully hit every nail into the timber as you move past it. Every time you hit a nail, you score a point – miss just one and you start over. It’s about timing, precision and anticipation – plus there are dangers along the way. You’ll come across the odd spike here and there, so keep an eye out and make sure you avoid hammering them; otherwise it’s back to square one. Give yourself an advantage by hitting power-ups that are dispersed along the timber. These boosts will make various modifications and upgrades to your hammer in play, giving you even more power, length and range, and making it easier to keep the score moving in the right direction. Meanwhile, you’ll notice stars here and there. Definitely pick these up, as they can be used to buy permanent tool upgrades in the Nail It store, very helpful if you’ve got your sights set on the top of the leaderboard. Try Nail It now for free! NOTE: • This app may require read and write permissions to your storage for score share feature

Nail It APK: questions and answers

Can I install this APK over the version I already have?

Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.

Is Nail It free?

The APK is free to download, but the game offers in-app purchases through Google Play.

Is the Nail It APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Trusted. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is 994aeb738afda5bf2be9105ed4c54949.
