Drop blocks. Clear lines. Watch the whole world change. Blockrun is a block puzzle you can pick up for one minute or lose an hour to. No timer, no pressure — just you, an 8x8 board, and three pieces at a time. SIX WORLDS THAT SWITCH AS YOU PLAY Clear the board and everything changes: candy, ice, metal, fruit, lava, glow. New blocks, new backdrop, the same board you have learned. BOOSTS WHEN THE BOARD CLOSES IN Bomb a 3x3 hole. Sweep a whole row. Rocket a single piece off the grid. Freeze a piece for later. Any one of them can turn a dead board around. BUILD A RUN, NOT JUST A SCORE Cores you earn mid-run change how scoring works. Nothing multiplies — every bonus is a flat number with a condition attached, so you can always work out what a placement is worth before you make it. PICK YOUR CHARACTER Tap your face in Profile and choose from nine characters. NOTHING LOST Your run is saved the moment you place a piece. Close the app mid-game and it is waiting exactly where you left it. Free to play, with optional diamond packs and a monthly pass.
