About

Snap & Stack

Read full description

Take a photo. Watch it become a block. Stack it up. Teddy bears, coffee cups, shoes, fruit, toys — snap a photo of anything around you, and it instantly becomes a game block with its real shape. Drop it from the clouds and see how high you can stack. Every block keeps the shape of what you photographed. Round things roll. Flat things stack neatly. Weird shapes? Good luck. Choosing what to photograph, what size to make it, and where to drop it — that's the game. ā—† How to Play Take a photo or choose one from your library Adjust the size Drag from the clouds and drop it where you want Keep stacking to build your tower higher If a block falls off screen — Game Over! ā—† Ways to Play Ā· Photograph your stuffed animals and build a plushie tower Ā· Snap everything in the fridge for a food tower challenge Ā· Line up your shoes for the ultimate shoe tower Ā· Build the strongest tower with your favorite toys Ā· Use old photos to create a memory tower ā—† Features Ā· AI-powered automatic cutout of any object Ā· Realistic physics simulation Ā· 5 size options (0.5x to 1.5x) Ā· Choose photos from your library Ā· Reuse past photos anytime Ā· Auto-scrolling camera as your tower grows Ā· No ads, no in-app purchases ā—† Privacy First Ā· All images are processed on your device only Ā· No images are ever sent over the internet Ā· All images are deleted when you close the app
