Block Slide

Block Slide is a one-thumb puzzle game about keeping your head while the floor keeps rising.

Every block sits in a row, and every block slides. Grab one, push it left or right, and it travels as a whole piece until something stops it. Plug every gap in a row and the row blasts. Whatever sat above it falls in, and if that falling stack completes another row, the chain keeps going on its own.

The catch is underneath you. Every few moves a fresh row shoves in from below and pushes the whole stack up. Reach the top and the run is over.

HOW IT PLAYS
• Drag any block sideways. Pieces move whole and stop when they hit something.
• Fill every gap in a row to clear it.
• Cleared rows collapse, and collapsing rows chain.
• New rows push up from below. Stay ahead of them.

CHARGE THE BLAST
Every row you clear feeds the blast meter, and chains feed it fastest. Fill it, tap Blast, then tap any row to wipe it off the board. The blast pays nothing by itself. What you earn is whatever the collapse completes on the way down, so a good blast is a setup, not a bailout.

BUILD A STREAK
Clear on back-to-back moves and the streak multiplier climbs, up to three times your score. One move that clears nothing drops it back to zero. Chains, multi-row clears and single-color rows all pay on top.

TWO WAYS TO PLAY
• Classic. The pressure never stops climbing. First the moves between rises get shorter, then the rises start bringing two rows at a time, then three. It ends, and the ending is earned.
• Zen. The board never tops out. Rows still rise, but if the stack reaches the ceiling it clears away and you carry on. No game over, no hurry.

PICK UP WHERE YOU LEFT OFF
Close the app in the middle of a run and your board is still waiting. Score, level, blast meter and every block, exactly as you left them.
