Falling-block puzzle

BreakBlocks

Drop. Clear. Break.

Slide and turn the falling blocks to fill whole rows. Full rows burst into debris, big clears back to back score extra, and every clear charges the Break, which shatters the bottom two rows of your stack. Some pieces carry a bomb or a drill. Stone rises from below in Versus and in missions, and cracks when you clear next to it. Work through 30 missions across six worlds, take on six rivals, unlock board skins with stars, or play the endless marathon, a two-minute sprint and the daily run.

FAQ

Questions

Is BreakBlocks free?

Yes. No ads, no account and nothing to buy.

What does the Break do?

Every row you clear adds charge. When the meter is full, tap Break (or press B) to shatter the bottom two rows of your stack. You get points for every block it breaks.

What do bombs and drills do?

Every so often a piece carries one. When it lands, a bomb blasts a 3×3 hole and the blocks above drop in. A drill bores down its whole column. A soft glow shows where it will hit before you drop.

How does Versus work?

You and a rival play side by side. Clearing two or more rows sends stone rows to them, and they send stone back. Your clears block stone that is on its way. Stone cracks when you clear a row next to it and shatters on the next hit. Top out your rival to win.

How do I unlock skins?

Finish missions to earn up to three stars each. Stars unlock new skins. Two more unlock by reaching 60 rows in one Marathon and by beating every rival.

How do I play on a phone?

Slide left or right to move, tap to turn, drag down to drop slowly and flick down to drop at once. Swipe up to hold a piece for later.

How does the daily run work?

Everyone gets the same pieces in the same order each day. Your first run of the day counts and gives you a share line. You can replay it for fun.

Does it work with a keyboard?

Yes. Arrow keys move and turn, Space drops, C holds, B breaks and P pauses.

Do I need to download anything?

No. BreakBlocks runs in your browser on a phone, tablet or computer. It is also part of the Break Puzzles app for iPhone, iPad and Android, coming soon.
