## What is Don't Get Crushed?

Meet Crush.

Crush is a friendly little miner who loves three things:
his hard hat, his pickaxe, and gold. So much gold. He's a 
simple guy with a simple dream, collect every shiny bar 
he can find, walk out the cave door, take it all home, 
retire happy.

What could go wrong?

Well. The caves are unstable. The rocks have a mind of 
their own and a strong belief in gravity. The bats living 
in the ceiling are not fond of visitors. The beetles are 
worse. And someone, Crush isn't 
sure who, left a lot of TNT lying around.

Crush is going to be fine. Probably. Almost certainly. 
He has a good attitude.

YOUR JOB

Help Crush retire.

Each level works the same way: collect every bar of gold 
in the cave, then reach the exit door before something 
heavy lands on his head. Sounds easy. It definitely is. 

Every step Crush takes shifts the cave around him. A rock 
he dug under three moves ago is still up there, waiting. 
Patient. The bats wake up when you get close. The beetles 
chase and maybe blow you up, possibly. The TNT goes exactly where you tell it to and then 
everything in a ten-tile radius stops existing, including, 
on a bad day, Crush.

Twenty-four levels. Each one hand-crafted to look 
solvable and turn out not to be. You will reset more than 
you complete. You will sit there for ten minutes thinking 
about a single tile. You will, eventually, see the move. 
And when you do, you will feel briefly like a genius,
right up until level 13 or probably level 2.

THE CAVES

The Roost: where bats remember faces.
Avalanche: one wrong tile and the whole ceiling comes 
down.
Bomb Shelter: the only way out is the beetles (that's your only hint).
Trinitrotoluene: a TNT puzzle that punishes greed, and 
also patience, and also breathing.
And twenty more, getting progressively less reasonable (but it's not that bad, we swear).

WHAT'S IN THE BOX

- 24 hand-built levels (every one a small cruelty)
- Cascading rock physics with real chain reactions
- Bats. Beetles. Exploding beetles. You'll meet them.
- Pickaxes, TNT, and detonators
- Wrap-around levels because regular levels weren't enough
- Pixel-perfect retro art and arcade soundtrack
- One-handed swipe controls

A charming little game about a charming little miner who 
is having the worst day of his life.

Solve it. Survive it. Get Crush home, maybe, unless his greed takes over (or yours).

Good luck.

Bug fixes not addressed from last patch. All good now! Get the gold and don't get crushed!

### 3.0 — 2026-05-10

Rebrand of the app. Turned the lights on for all levels. Stay tuned for a lights out event soon lol.

### 2.12 — 2026-04-23

bugs in the high scores area squashed, added extra metrics to ensure iCloud saves are working for level progression. Be sure your Game Center is turned on to show up on the leaderboards!

### 2.1 — 2026-04-23

Hotfix for v2.1:

Due to the entire 24 level redesign/reset, iCloud was not properly saving your levels or high scores. After this update, it may reset you one more time back to Level 1 (this was intentional with version 2.0 since all levels were redesigned), but from now on your levels will save to iCloud.

### 2.0 — 2026-04-23

Every level has been completely rebuilt from the ground up. All 24 stages have been redesigned with new layouts, tighter puzzles, tools, and more challenging obstacles. Welcome to the new Herman and the Falling Rocks... and good luck. 

Details of what's new:

All 24 levels completely redesigned with brand new layouts and puzzles
New items: Pickaxe and TNT. Smash rocks and blow up everything in your path
Multi-TNT placement: drop multiple explosives and detonate them all at once
Fastest time leaderboards added for every level
Difficulty rebalanced from start to finish
All progress has been reset: everyone starts fresh on equal footing
