Flip Block is a block puzzle game with colorful blocks, four modes, and power-ups for when you get stuck. Classic mode uses the full 20×10 board: stack blocks to clear rows and columns. 1010 Mode is the same idea on a smaller, faster 10×10 grid. Casual mode drops the hardest 6-block shapes. Zen mode uses fixed pieces on an 8×8 board for a slower round. No timers, no pressure, just planning ahead. NEW: PICK YOUR THEME Change your look anytime from Settings. Classic, Jewel, and Flat are three different visual styles for the same board and the same power-ups. GAME MODES • Classic ↻ (20×10) — the full-size board; stack blocks to clear rows and columns • 1010 Mode ↻ (10×10) — same drop-and-clear action, smaller board, faster rounds • Casual Mode ↻ — same gameplay, without the hardest 6-block shapes • Zen Mode ⊘ — fixed pieces on a calmer 8×8 board ROTATE OR FIXED Each mode is tagged so you know what to expect: • ↻ Rotate (Classic, 1010 & Casual) — tap a shape to spin it before you drop it • ⊘ Fixed (Zen) — shapes stay as they come, no rotating HOW TO PLAY • Pick 1 of 3 block shapes each turn • Tap to rotate in Rotate modes • Drag and drop to place • Fill a row or column to clear it and score • Sort blocks into gaps to last longer • No time limit POWER-UPS • Magic — remove any block from the board • Flip — mirror a shape so it fits into a tight spot • Undo — take back your last move Handy when a run of odd-shaped blocks fills up the board. WHY PLAY IT • A logic puzzle, not a luck or reflex game • Easy to pick up in the first round • Bright, distinct block colors on an uncluttered board • Quick 1010 rounds or long, unlimited Classic sessions • Undo and Flip when a bad draw locks you up FEATURES • Challenging 5 and 6-square block shapes • 3 visual themes — Classic, Jewel & Flat • Game Center leaderboards • Unlimited levels with increasing difficulty • Free to play Flip Block is free to download.
