One grid. One day. Everyone on Earth plays the same puzzle. Linetris is the daily block puzzle where every player gets the identical 8x8 grid each morning. Place your pieces, clear your lines, and the moment your board is done you see exactly where you rank against the world. This is not another endless block puzzle. It ends. It scores you. It ranks you. Then it does it again tomorrow. HOW A DAY WORKS 1. Open Linetris. Today's grid is waiting -- the same one everybody else got. 2. Drag pieces onto the 8x8 board. 3. Fill a full row or column to clear it and score. 4. When you run out of moves, your run is over and your rank is instant. 5. Finish in the top 3 and take Gold, Silver or Bronze. 6. Send the grid to a friend and see who played it better. ONE PUZZLE, ONE SHOT There is no grinding for a better score. You get today's grid once, like everyone else, and what you make of it is what goes on the leaderboard. That constraint is the whole game -- it turns a casual block puzzle into something worth arguing about at lunch. GLOBAL LEADERBOARD Your score is ranked against every other player worldwide the second your board closes. Watch your position move in real time as the rest of the world wakes up and plays. MEDALS THAT MEAN SOMETHING Gold, Silver and Bronze go to the top three finishers each day. They accumulate on a permanent profile, so your medal count is a real record of how you have played over months, not a participation trophy. HEAD-TO-HEAD CHALLENGES Send a friend today's grid. They play the same pieces in the same order. You compare scores. Block puzzles have never had genuine head-to-head competition -- this one does. POWER-UPS Five tools for when the grid turns against you: - Skip: discard the current piece and draw a new one - Swap: choose exactly the piece you want - One Cell: drop a single cell into any empty space - Remove: erase a filled cell - Rewind: undo your last placement They are limited each day, which makes deciding when to spend them part of the puzzle. LAST CHANCE Out of valid moves? You get one lifeline before the run ends -- remove a cell or rewind your last move -- to keep the grid alive a little longer. BUILT TO RESPECT YOUR TIME A run takes a few minutes. No ads interrupting your solve, no cluttered menus, no endless mode designed to keep you scrolling. Native iOS, built in SwiftUI, smooth on every iPhone. PLAYS OFFLINE No signal? Play today's grid anyway. Your score syncs and ranks the moment you reconnect. WHO THIS IS FOR If you already have a daily puzzle habit -- a word game with your coffee, the crossword on the train, a Sudoku before bed -- Linetris is the spatial one. Same ritual, same one-shot-per-day structure, but you are clearing lines instead of filling letters, and there is a global leaderboard attached. It is also for anyone who has spent hours on block puzzles and wanted a reason to care about the score. PRICING Free to download. The daily grid is free forever. Power-ups can be earned by playing or bought if you would rather not wait. --- Privacy Policy: https://tskulbru.dev/apps/linetris-privacy/ Terms of Service: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ ## Pricing and in-app purchases Base price: Free. **One-time purchases** | Purchase | Price | Type | | --- | --- | --- | | Power-Up Bundle Small | $0.99 | one-time | | Power-Up Bundle Medium | $1.99 | one-time | | Power-Up Bundle Large | $2.99 | one-time | ## Version history (last 5 releases) ### 1.4.0 — 2026-09-09 What's new in v1.4: - Jump straight into today's puzzle: the first board now teaches you as you play, no intro screens - Challenge links: share a link that opens the challenge directly in Linetris - Share card: post your result as an image with your board, time, rank and streak - Daily reminder offered right after your first puzzle so you never miss a day - Results shared after midnight keep the day they were played on - Bug fixes and performance improvements Enjoying Linetris?
