About

Orb 3D

Features
Read full description

Orb 3D is a fresh take on the classic block-stacking puzzle — played on a rotating cylinder instead of a flat board. Pieces fall onto an 18-column ring that wraps all the way around. Spin the world left or right to position your piece anywhere on the cylinder. Clear a full ring of 18 blocks to score, and place 100 pieces to conquer each level. GAMEPLAY • Cylindrical 18Ɨ15 board — every row is a complete ring • Classic 7 tetrominoes — I, O, T, S, Z, J, L • Rotate the world to move pieces around the cylinder • Spin, hold, and drop pieces with one-handed virtual controls • Fill a complete ring to clear it with an explosion animation • Place 100 pieces to advance to the next level CONTROLS • World Left / Right — spin the cylinder to align your piece • Rotate — flip the falling tetromino • Hold — save a piece for later • Drop — tap to step down, hold to soft-drop fast • Tap the center of the screen to pause FEATURES • Neon 3D rendering powered by Metal • Satisfying haptic feedback on every action • Explosion animation when a ring is cleared • Adjustable camera — zoom and shift the view to your liking • Clean, minimal interface that stays out of your way
