About Wrecking Ball Blocks
Wrecking Ball Blocks is a build-it-then-knock-it-down sandbox for young children. There is no timer, no score to chase, and nothing to buy. You build something you are proud of, and then you get to wreck it. BUILDING Tap the ground inside the taped-off site to lay bricks and logs. They are cut to the same grid, so they meet edge to edge instead of leaving gaps — turn a piece sideways and you can lay a square foundation, or cross logs into a cabin the way a real one is built. Take a piece away again with the eraser, or undo the last one you placed. KNOCKING IT DOWN When the building is finished, the crane rolls in. Drag the screen to move it around your building, then pull the wrecking ball back with the slider — a little, or a lot — and press Swing. The physics are real, and they are the whole point. A tall tower topples differently from a squat one. Logs roll. A wall can take a hole through the middle and still stand. One tower can bring down the tower beside it. The crane sizes itself to whatever you built, so a wide site gets a bigger machine with a longer reach. SAVING THE GOOD ONES Save a building you like, with a picture of it, and load it back whenever you want to knock it down again. MADE FOR CHILDREN, AND FOR THEIR PARENTS • No advertising, of any kind • No in-app purchases • No accounts and no sign-in • No internet connection needed — it works on a plane • Nothing is collected, tracked, or sent anywhere Made for children around six to eight. Younger ones tend to build and swing; older ones start working out how to make a building that survives the first hit.
