MineBlocks

Read full description

MineBlocks é um arcade de blocos pixel art em que você quebra minérios, encadeia combos explosivos e detona powerups tudo com o charme retrô de uma tela CRT de console antigo. Como funciona: no ciclo principal você quebra blocos para fazer pontos e combos, libera powerups e itens especiais conforme limpa o tabuleiro, e ainda encara inimigos como creeper e zumbi que explodem em cadeia. Quanto mais blocos da mesma cor você junta de uma vez, maior o combo, a pontuação e a chance de bater seu recorde. 4 modos de jogo, cada um com sua pegada: Avalanche: os blocos caem sem parar; toque em grupos da mesma cor para explodir, encadeie combos e solte a TNT. Quebra-Cabeça: arraste e encaixe as peças no tabuleiro, complete linhas e segure o espaço livre. Ricochete: mire o canhão, dispare a bolinha e veja ela ricochetear quebrando a parede de blocos que desce. Campanha: 500 fases por modo, com missões de minério, estrelas para conquistar e dificuldade crescente. Destaques: Minérios e blocos no estilo pixel art (pedra, grama, diamante, redstone e mais) Powerups poderosos: TNT, bomba, supernova, ímã, laser e relógio Inimigos que explodem em cadeia (creeper, zumbi) Colete diamantes, ganhe vidas e suba no ranking Filtros de tela retrô: CRT verde, âmbar e modo colorido XP, combos e pontuação para evoluir sempre Fácil de aprender, difícil de largar. Quebre, combine e exploda quantos blocos você consegue limpar?
