About

Triangle Smash!

Features
Read full description

Block puzzle, rebuilt on a triangle. Every block-clearing puzzle you've played runs on a square grid, so lines clear two ways: across and down. Triangle Smash runs on a triangular board, where lines run THREE ways. That one change rewires everything you know — the shapes are polyiamonds, not tetrominoes, and the placement that looks obvious is usually not the one that scores. MULTIPLIER BLOCKS Every inverted triangle on the board is a multiplier. Each one charges up a little every time you clear a line, with no cap. Clear a line that runs through a charged block and it detonates into your score. Leave them alone and they keep growing — the longer you resist, the bigger the payoff. COMBOS THAT COMPOUND Clear on consecutive placements and the multiplier climbs. Clear on several axes at once and the whole board reacts. Break the chain and it resets to nothing. NO TIMER, NO PRESSURE Play a single move or a hundred. The board only ends the game when nothing you're holding fits anywhere. THREE LOOKS Zeus, Poseidon and Hades — unlocked by playing, never by paying. Purely cosmetic. PLAYS OFFLINE No account, no login, no sign-up. Your progress lives on your device and nowhere else. Free to play. One optional ad, only if you choose to continue a lost game. No forced ads. No in-app purchases.
