Rotate Blocks

Features
Read full description

The objective of the game is to place blocks on the finish spots of matching color with fewest moves possible. โ€“ How to play โ€“ Rotate the board with your finger to move the blocks. After each rotation, the blocks on top will fall to the bottom. You can rotate the board either clockwise or counter-clockwise. โ€“ Features โ€“ โ—† Moving Block โ€“ moves as you rotate the board. โ—† Solid Block โ€“ doesn't move as you rotate the board. โ—† Phantom Block โ€“ doesnโ€™t move as you rotate the board but allows a moving block to pass through it once and then becomes solid. โ—† Finish Spot โ€“ comes in a variety of colors that match moving blocks. Position a moving block of the same color on the finish spot in order to win. If multiple finish spots are present then all of them need to have a matching moving block on top to win. โ—† Ice Block โ€“ cracks when a moving block falls on it the first time and shatters the second time. โ—† Slime Block โ€“ traps a block that collides with it inside and wonโ€™t let go until another block pushes out the trapped block and takes its place. โ€“ Tips โ€“ - Think carefully about each move. Don't just randomly rotate the board. Chances are that you won't get that perfect score if you do. - Make sure to use surrounding blocks to your advantage. - Use other moving blocks to help you beat the level. As you progress through the game, the levels will become more challenging and will require more than just randomly rotating the board. If you feel like you need that mental stimulation that you get from puzzle games then try Rotate Blocks today!

About

Box Master

Features
Read full description

Box Master is a 3D puzzle game about pushing boxes onto targets. One move at a time, one room at a time โ€” until your brain starts to hurt in the best possible way. It looks simple. It is simple. Then level 30 happens. KEY FEATURES โ€ข 155 hand-picked levels from the legendary Microban set โ€ข 9 playable characters โ€” knights, skeletons, mages, rogues โ€ข Full 3D world with a clean perspective camera โ€ข VHS-style rewind: undo any number of moves, no penalty โ€ข Hold-to-move controls for fast traversal โ€ข Little voice lines and a jump button, just because โ€ข Automatic progress saving on every level โ€ข Keyboard, touch and gamepad support A LOVE LETTER TO TWO CLASSICS Sokoban was created in 1981 by Hiroyuki Imabayashi in Japan and quietly became one of the most influential puzzle games ever made. Nine years later, a small studio called TbiliSoft, working out of Tbilisi, Georgia, released a DOS clone with a national twist โ€” they called it Kurtan, after "kurtani", the rough sack Georgian shepherds used to carry their load. Box Master is a 3D remake that tips its hat to both: the precise, mathematical purity of Sokoban, and the warm, slightly stubborn personality of the post-Soviet clone that taught a generation of kids what "thinking three moves ahead" means. Pure puzzle, no accounts, no clutter โ€” just you, a room, some boxes, and the quiet satisfaction of clicking the last one into place.
