Every moving day has that moment: the truck hits a speed bump and the whole load jumps. Don't Drop It! is a physics stacking puzzle. Drag each item into place, turn it with Rotate and tap Drop to set it on a small flatbed truck: boxes, a TV, a sofa, a fridge, a piano, a bicycle and more. Then hit GO and drive over speed bumps, potholes, hills and hard brakes. Warning signs show what's coming. Ease off to protect the load, or step on the gas for a speed tip. • 24 household items that all behave differently: heavy fridges, bouncy balls, tall mirrors, fragile vases • Fragile things crack and break. Deliver them in one piece for the full value • 30 handmade jobs over six days, then new jobs without end, as far as you can go • Turtle and rabbit buttons: take it slow over the bumps, or hurry for a tip • Earn coins on every delivery. Spend them on tie-down straps and truck upgrades • Endless mode with a Game Center leaderboard. One drop ends the run • Share your best load with friends • No ads, no timers, no data collection. Optional coin packs: everything can also be earned by playing
