TapStacker
Read full descriptionHide full description
TapStacker is a one-tap stacking game. A block slides in, you tap, it drops. Land it dead on and nothing is cut. Miss by a little and the overhang falls away. How high can you go? NEW: A FRESH LOOK AND BETTER RULES TapStacker has been rebuilt to feel calm, clean and fair. The block now moves at the same speed on every screen, slides in from alternating sides, and the pace builds smoothly instead of jumping. Every perfect drop rings a note that climbs with your combo, and three perfects in a row make your block grow back. HOW IT PLAYS - Tap anywhere to drop the block on the tower - Perfect drops keep the full width and add a bonus that grows with your combo - Three perfects in a row and the block widens again - Every 10 blocks the sky changes color - Miss the tower and the run is over. Play again is one tap. MODES - Classic: Easy, Normal or Hard - Daily challenge: one tower a day, the same for everyone, one try - Speed run: 30 seconds, stack as many as you can - Zen: slow and calm, nothing ends the run - Challenge a friend with a 6-character code PROGRESS Quests, awards, a daily streak, eight block skins to unlock, and global leaderboards. IN ENGLISH AND SPANISH TapStacker speaks English and Spanish and follows your phone's language. Change it any time in Settings. FAIR AND PRIVATE No account. No subscription. Optional one-time purchase to remove ads. Your progress stays on your device.
