Read full description

Block puzzle meets ball bounce in one addictive game! Ball Blast mixes two classics: the satisfying "fit the piece" strategy of block puzzles and the joy of firing a stream of bouncing balls. Every turn has two parts. First think, then shoot. HOW TO PLAY • PLACE – Drag one of your three pieces onto the 8×8 board. Every block shows a number: its strength. • BLAST – Fill a whole row or column and it explodes instantly, whatever the numbers say. • SHOOT – Drag to aim, release to fire. Your balls bounce off walls and blocks, and every hit knocks a block's number down by one. Hit zero and it shatters. • GRAB – Hit the glowing green orbs to add balls to your launcher. • SURVIVE – The game ends when none of your pieces fit on the board. WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT • Two kinds of fun in every turn: puzzle strategy and arcade action • See the row or column you're about to clear light up before you drop a piece • Plan your bank shots with the aim line, which shows the first bounce • Chain line clears back to back for combo multipliers • Clear the whole board for an All Clear bonus • Watch dozens of balls ricochet in a shower of colorful particles • Speed up long shots or call your balls back with one tap • Blocks get tougher every turn, so every move counts PLAY YOUR WAY • Quick turns are perfect for short breaks, but you'll want "just one more run" • Your game saves automatically, so you can pick up right where you left off • Play offline, anywhere, with no internet needed • Satisfying haptics and crisp sound effects • Built for iPhone and iPad Smart placement keeps the board open. Clever angles break the toughest blocks. How high can you score? Download Ball Blast and start blasting!
