About Carve: The Wooden Puzzle Game
Carve is the puzzle game that meets you where you are. Play it mindlessly to unwind, or think three moves ahead to master it. Either way, you won't be able to put it down. Slide blocks to match target shapes. When a shape is matched, it's carved away and new blocks appear. Every swipe costs a move — but every match refunds moves, and combos refund even more. Find the bonus block inside a shape and your move meter fills completely. It's simple to learn, endlessly deep to master. HOW TO PLAY • Slide blocks to match the target patterns shown on the board • Carve a shape to clear it and earn moves back • Chain multiple matches in a single slide for a combo bonus • Rotate the entire board to find the perfect angle — rotations are free • Run out of moves and the game ends — so make every swipe count GROW YOUR CRAFT Progress through a ranking system built entirely around wood — from humble Balsa to rare and exotic hardwoods. Each rank reflects your mastery. Earn badges for lifetime achievements, high scores, and combo milestones. Check your results against an opt-in Global Leaderboard to see how you stack up! DAILY PLAY A new quest awaits every day. Complete it to earn rewards. Keep your daily streak alive to unlock power-ups that help you during game play. Every session counts. JUST THE RIGHT CHALLENGE Early play is relaxed and approachable. The longer a game goes, the more complex the target shapes become — naturally escalating the challenge the better you get. No levels. No waiting. Just you, the board, and the next move. Carve is free to play with optional ads. A single one-time purchase removes all ads permanently.
