Cloud Net Toss
Toss a net into the sky and let it drift down onto a cloud of the matching shape.
Tap to throw the net; it opens at apex and floats on the breeze, and you must read the drift so it catches exactly one target cloud silhouette.
Single tap to toss; timing and pre-toss aim decide which cloud gets caught.
