Stack as many blocks as possible to build your own high-rise building. How to play: By default, there is a square at the bottom. When the upper square and the lower square overlap, click the screen once, and the brain must respond quickly to make the squares overlap as much as possible. This way you can stack higher, there are a total of 9 beautiful skins of different materials, and get more diamonds to unlock more skins. Leaderboard: Compete with players from all over the world, stack higher and get more diamonds.

Verdict
Canvas Run and Stack High Blocks both sit at 4.5 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Stack High Blocks's written reviews are positive against 29% of Canvas Run's. Stack High Blocks also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 14.0). Canvas Run's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 33 months) and ratings volume (35K vs 46). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
