## What is BoXiKoN Pro?

A calm, clever action puzzler — now with crisp high-density graphics and smoother gameplay throughout.

Rotate and drop shapes into the grid to build solid connecting lines across or down. Complete a line and it clears, freeing up space to keep going. Simple to pick up, but staying alive takes real planning — the grid fills faster than you think.

This is a brain teaser rather than a twitch arcade game. There's no clock forcing your hand in Relaxed Mode, so you can sit with a tricky board for as long as you like. If you enjoy quiet, spatial thinking games, this one will fit right in.

Over a decade on the App Store and still going.

- 20 levels (maybe more) to work through

### 1/5 — Can't hear

*2015-02-16*

Make the ability to listen to own music etc while playing

### 1/5 — Attention ne fonctionne pas sur iPad mini retina

*2013-12-03*

Dommage c'est mon jeu préféré vite une mise à jour

### 5/5 — Addictive near perfection

*2012-06-19*

Excellent graphics, fun gameplay, every bit as addictive as Tetris.  The only request I would have would be to have separate high-score modes for Easy/Norm/Hard/Relaxed modes.  I shouldn't have to try to beat my Relaxed high score in Hard mode.  Otherwise, I find myself playing the SNOT out of this game.  Excellently done.

Update: Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in!  Definitely glad to see this game get updated graphics.  Good update. Wish Paul would put back the little numbers when the blocks clear just to get a sense of the points I'm scoring (minor nit).  Still wishing the high scores would designate which mode you were in (hard, easy, relaxed,etc) so I can see how I did in the various modes.  Great mechanics.  This and DropZap2 can get me through any line at the DMV.  Well done.

### 5/5 — One of the coolest Amiga/PC/Mac puzzlers makes it to the iPhone!

*2012-06-19*

UPDATE:  Stoked to see my favorite of the Shoecake games get revisited!

Paul Burkey took Tetris' basic "line clearing" gameplay mechnic and spun it on it's head! Pieces aren't falling from the top but going into boxes below so you can decide which piece to place first. It is no longer about just making horizonatal lines as you can make vertical lines across the game play area as well. Coolest yet, IMHO, is that the pieces get nastier and nastier in later levels (right when free space is at a premium you'll start seein more 5+ block pieces). I even love how if you group enough same colored pieces in a clump they become gem pieces worth big points when cleared! My only whine is that I hope in updates Paul will put back in the bonus for clearing a line all of one color like he had in the computer versions.

### 5/5 — Fun puzzler

*2010-06-27*

This is a very fun puzzler with simple rules that still give a deep game that you find you improve at with practice - never just random.  Add to that top notch graphics and production values and you get one of the best puzzlers on the iPhone.

### 3/5 — Request

*2010-02-11*

Please add an option to turn off the spinning of the pieces at the bottom of the screen. The backgrounds sometimes blend too much with the piece colors, but at least they don't move.

### 5/5 — Très bien (Y)

*2010-01-27*

Tres bon jeu, malheureusement devenu payant ;(. On n'en gardera un bon souvenir, et une très bonne place dans le TopScore ^_^ !

### 5/5 — Way too addictive!

*2010-01-25*

Generally I like the word games but wanted something like tetris without the stress! I have many, many games on my phone but this one is the only one that I play multiple times a day! I love the graphics and that you can play relaxed mode too. It is so simple and brilliant! Thanxs!

### 5/5 — Play this game all the time

*2010-01-08*

This is a well done puzzle game. Quick pick up. Easy to suspend and pick up later. It is so good, I hope the developers will add some features and make it better. I play it almost daily.

### 4/5 — 良作パズルゲーム

*2010-01-06*

リラックスモードでハイスコアを目指すのが好きですね。
慣れてくるとワンプレイ30分以上になってしまってそこからは
プレイ頻度が減ってしまいましたが良作なのは間違いないです。
