Blast, survive, and chase a high score in ExplosionBlock — a fast, language-free action puzzle. HOW TO PLAY - Tap a group of 2 or more connected same-color blocks to blow them up. - The bigger the blast, the higher the score — clears grow with the square of the block count. - After each blast the bomb needs a short cooldown before you can fire again. - Slide blocks left or right to line up bigger groups. - The wall keeps rising. If it reaches the top, it's game over. FEVER MODE Fill the top gauge to enter FEVER: fire with no cooldown, score x2, and the wall slows down. Go wild! FEATURES - Endless score attack — no stages, just one more run. - No text, no language barrier — play anywhere in the world. - Simple to learn, hard to master: build big or fire now? - One-handed portrait play. Free to play with ads. Chase your best score!
