## What is Stack & Strap?

The show is over. The crowd has gone home. It's just you, the truck, and forty cases on the dock.

Stack & Strap is a truck-loading puzzle seen from the side, made by a live-event technician. Drag the flight cases into the truck, tip them so they fit, build straight walls up to the roof and strap them. Then the driver pulls away. And brakes. Hard.

EVERY CASE HAS ITS RULES
The sub stays on the floor, its castors insist. Nothing hard on a soft bag. The screen travels upright, arrows up. The drum bag rolls unless something wedges it. The stage manager's bike and the CEO's lectern carry nothing, the dressing-room fridge next to nothing. And just like in real life, you load through the doors: whatever is behind a finished wall is out of reach.

THE BRAKE TEST
The doors close, the truck pulls out, the driver slams the brakes at the first roundabout. A strapped wall holds. A wobbly one goes BAM. The standing case nothing was holding tips over toward the cab. Broken gear costs stars and your fee.

100 DATES, 10 CHAPTERS
From the village fair to the stadium, through bar karaoke, the corporate seminar, the 500-seat club, the festival, the arena and the world tour. From the small van to the semi-trailer. Then come the rules of the day: video goes into the venue first tomorrow, so it loads last; the crew bus leaves on time; two trucks for one festival.

A CREW THAT TALKS
A driver who brakes hard, a stage manager who almost smiled once, a tech who coils his cables, the venue manager counting scratches, an intern who asks why we strap. Nearly 600 lines.

MADE FOR EVERYONE
• Dates of 1 to 4 minutes, playable in a queue
• Three stars per date: nothing broken, tidy (no holes at the back), on time
• Every date has a three-star solution, checked by a solver
• Stuck? One free hint a day: the old-timer shows the next case, the god of loading comes down, tidies the truck without a gap and loads the next cases, the driver walks round the truck before you leave
• The merch stand: flight case skins and stickers to buy with your fees, one look per department
• Never an ad in the middle of a date, never before the fifth one, never after a failure
• "Roadie pro mode": no more ads and five hints a day, one purchase
• Home-made music and sounds, and your own music keeps playing if you prefer it
• Larger text, reduced motion, in English and French

Stack & Strap is a fond, self-mocking tribute to the people in black who load trucks at 3 a.m. And if a case falls, we'll blame the wind.

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.0.3 — 2026-10-22

Thanks for your tour feedback!
• Dock empty? The button turns into "Strap all": every wall in one go.
• A small case now turns by itself to go down a narrow gap.
• "All out" moved to the pause menu, away from the Strap button: no more slips.
• The strapping tutorial (date 2.1) guides you case by case.
• The merch stand is easy to find: home screen, pause menu and road sheet.
• Fixed a freeze when a notification arrived as the truck pulled away.

### 1.0.2 — 2026-10-21

Small tour fixes: the App Store can now open the game straight onto the merch stand, and after a great three-star date the game may ask what you think. If you enjoy Stack & Strap, a rating means a lot for a game made by one person. Thank you!

### 1.0.1 — 2026-10-20

The merch stand is open! Spend your fees on flight case skins (all aluminium, leopard, thirty years on the road…) and stickers ("It's the cable", "Do not tip"…). One look per department, stickers stuck on your cases all by themselves.
Replaying a date now pays 25% of its fee into the stand: no excuse not to go for three stars.
New hint: the walk-round. The driver shows you what would fall at the brake and the gaps at the back, before you close up.
Undo is now unlimited.
A case hanging over the void, two castors in the air, now falls at the brake unless its wall is strapped. Even in chapter 1.
And a little title card for the studio: FaFa Games.

### 1.0 — 2026-10-20
