## What is Tricky Blocks?

Tricky Blocks is a clean, satisfying physics stacker where you build as high as you dare. Drag from a tray of three blocks, choose any order, and place at your own pace—no time pressure. A smart shadow preview shows valid snap spots before you drop, so every placement feels fair, tactile, and oh-so-addictive.

Why you’ll love it

No timer, no rush: Always get 3 blocks to pick from—play thoughtfully, not frantically.

Satisfying physics: Real weight, friction, and wobbles as pieces settle into place.

Smart snapping & ghost: See exactly where your block will fit—clean, readable, and precise.

Three lives: Mistakes happen; run out of hearts and it’s game over.

Crisp 2D look: Bright blocks with subtle outlines and a camera that rises with your tower.

Punchy feedback: Optional haptics and juicy SFX for perfect drops and close saves.

How to play
1. Pick any block from your tray of three.
2. Aim—the shadow shows a valid snap location.
3. Drop and watch it settle.
4. Keep stacking to reach new heights without toppling.

Build tall, build smart, and master the art of the perfect drop in Tricky Blocks.

### 1/5 — Bug?

*2026-08-21*

Love the game, but when you have a high score it sometimes just falsely gives you a game over when you still have lives and nothing has fallen. Really frustrating and unfair.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback. That sounds like a bug causing incorrect game-over triggers—we'll investigate this. Please reach out to our support email listed in the app's support section with details, so we can look into it further. Appreciate you playing!

### 4/5 — It’s good, could be better

*2026-08-21*

loving it, it’s fun, it’s calm (until you fail) and I like the bright colours. I however would prefer if there was optional background music and skins, personally, I need a game with a goal if I wanna keep playing, I think adding a currency system for skins and music would be good, the game itself is a really good game, I just personally think it’s not up to its full potential just yet

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the 4 stars! We appreciate the feedback and all the great suggestions, we'll consider them for future updates. Thanks for the support!

### 2/5 — Almost perfect

*2026-08-19, version 1.3.841*

I’ll rate 5 stars when 1. You can stop the camera from auto recentering after placing a block. And 2 keep my progress if I close the app mid game and re open it. Preferably the auto camera first but whatever

### 5/5 — Great game one suggestion

*2026-08-17*

I love the concept of the game and the game in general; however, I just have one suggestion. Add the option to have the blocks snap into place. This would just be a QoL update but it would add a lot for me and a lot of other people I’m sure.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the 5 stars! Also thanks for the thoughtful suggestion, we'll definitely consider it for future updates. Appreciate the feedback!

### 5/5 — Peak update

*2026-08-16, version 1.3.831*

Really good update and I like that you don’t have to pay incredible game

### 5/5 — Tricy/fun

*2026-08-11*

It’s a tricky and mostly fun game

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the 5 stars! We appreciate the support!

### 3/5 — Well

*2026-08-10, version 1.3.72*

been obsessed with this game lately and now there’s random pop up adds and then i go back to the game and i have no blocks to play? therefor having to clear my app and my score is gone and i have to start over.. not happy

### 4/5 — Good Game, Needs work

*2026-08-08*

Very enjoyable,I’ve been playing it a lot, except it annoys me how there’s no feature to remove blocks that aren’t locked into a position but are stuck on the stucture so you can’t build on it or anywhere. And often the structure just falls when there’s nothing really wrong with it. Also the game could do with a few more block options, or features such as being able to reroll the block choices

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the 4 stars! We understand the frustration with stuck/unusable blocks blocking further building, and unexpected collapses—we're reviewing both. All other suggestions you gave are great ideas. We'll keep these in mind for future updates!

### 5/5 — Awesome game

*2026-08-07*

This game is great. I think they did an update recently that allowed you to scroll down the tower and add to the lower levels. That was huge and made a good game even better. The only thing I would ask that they add next:

A way to undo an added block. Sometimes you can misplace them and that would be helpful. It would be fair to have it cost points. 

A way to clean up a block (as in, delete the block). This would help after a minor collapse, when some block remain on the tower, but at weird angles that can’t bear a load. Instead of building around them, it would be nice to just delete them and re-build from there. Again it could cost points.  

A “Lean Angle” indicator. It’s a little tough to read the angle of lean based purely on background, because the sky has moving clouds and it’s tricky to judge. This could be something you gain after a certain number of points, or use points to activate, etc. 

Finally, a better way to watch the inevitable collapse. That’s the best part. They already made moves toward this, by allowing you to zoom out and see a larger portion of the tower on screen. To take this further in a simple way, my opinion is that the Game Over screen should not cover the screen, just a banner at the top/bottom. And then you can just sit there and watch it wobble and collapse. With the entirety of the tower in view. 

Overall this game is great because it’s so simple. I pray it doesn’t ever get over complicated and stays exactly how simple it is. It’s amazing. Like I said, just a few quality of life additions. But even without those, it’s so entertaining.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the 5 stars and the fantastic detailed feedback! We're glad the scroll update made a big difference. All suggestions you gave are great ideas—we'll keep them in mind as we continue improving the game. Appreciate the support!

### 4/5 — Good game but could be a little better polished

*2026-08-06*

I really enjoy this game, especially because it doesn’t shove ads, it’s entertaining, and has nice graphics and straightforward gameplay. 
There are two things that bug me though. I think while you play it should show you your previous best score so you actually have a goal and can find out how well you improved. Also when i was starting a run, I accidentally clicked a block and it spawned like right above the water no on the platform which feels like blocks shouldn’t be able to be placed there. Related, also it’d be nice if when you drag out blocks but then place them back into the bottom, that they visually go back into their slot. 

Thank you!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the 4 stars! We appreciate the detailed suggestions. We'll consider these for future updates. Thanks for playing!
