The flippers have stopped moving. With the Global server shutting down in 2024, and the CN server following in 2025, World Flipper is officially gone. We can no longer launch the pinball battles we loved.

However, for the true fans, there is one last hope. Cygames, the developer, left a parting gift exclusively for the Japanese server: The “Offline Version” (Stargazing Encyclopedia).

It is a special version of the app that lets you view characters, read stories, and listen to the legendary soundtrack—forever.

This Offline App is only available on the Japanese App Store / Google Play. If you search for it in the US or Europe, you won’t find it.

In this guide, I will show you how to use a VPN to download this “Digital Artifact” and preserve World Flipper on your phone before it disappears from the store completely.

What Can You Do in the “Offline Version”?

⚠️ Important: You cannot play pinball battles. The gameplay is removed. But here is what you can do (and why it’s worth the download):

  1. Character Directory: View artwork, pixel animations, and listen to Voice Lines for almost all characters.
  2. Music Player: World Flipper’s OST is legendary. The offline app includes the BGM library so you can listen to the tracks anytime.
  3. Story Archive: Read the Main Quest and Event Stories.

It is essentially a 4GB Interactive Artbook of the game.

Step 1: You Need a VPN to “Go to Japan”

Since the app is region-locked to the Japanese storefronts, you need a Japanese IP address to access it.

  • Recommended: [Surfshark].
  • Note: Since the download size is huge (approx. 4GB), you need a fast and stable VPN connection.

Step 2: How to Download on iOS (iPhone/iPad)

  1. Get a Japanese Apple ID: You cannot use your main ID. You must create a new one set to “Japan”.
  2. Connect VPN: Switch your location to Japan.
  3. Search in App Store: Search for “World Flipper” or “ワールドフリッパー”.
  4. Install: It is free.
  5. Download Data: Open the app. It will ask to download game data. Use Wi-Fi!

Step 3: How to Download on Android

  1. Connect VPN: Switch to Japan.
  2. Create/Switch Google Account: You need a Google account that is tied to the Japan region.
  3. Open Play Store: Verify that the currency is in Yen (¥) or you see Japanese apps.
  4. Install: Download the app.

Step 4: Translating the Memories

The Offline Version is 100% Japanese. But don’t let that stop you.

  • Google Lens: Take a screenshot of the character profile or story text, and Google Lens will translate it instantly.
  • Community Wikis: Use the [World Flipper Wiki] alongside the app to identify characters and lore.

FAQ

Q: Will the Offline Version be available forever? A: We don’t know. It is currently available, but Cygames could remove it from the store at any time. I highly recommend downloading it NOW and keeping it on your device.

Q: Can I transfer my Global Account data? A: No. The servers are separate and deleted. This Offline Version is a standalone app (like a gallery). You start with the gallery unlocked.

Q: Do I need the VPN every time I open it? A: No. You only need the VPN to download the app from the store. Once it is on your phone, you can open it offline without a VPN.

Conclusion: Don’t Let the Pixel Art Die

World Flipper was one of the most unique and stylish gacha games ever made. Even though we can’t play anymore, having the Offline App on your home screen is the best way to honor the journey.
