Root Drop
Read full descriptionHide full description
A fresh take on falling-block puzzles: every block that drops is a √ (square root). Drop a √ onto another √ to multiply them. When an integer can be extracted, the result splits into an integer below and the remaining √ above. Matching integers connected horizontally or vertically merge into a power block. Two 3s make 3²; add another 3 to make 3³… Keep the chain going to grow bigger numbers. FEATURES • Simple rules built around √, with deep number strategy • Your score is revealed at game over, with a breakdown of how many points each number earned • Share your results with an image of the board • A Collection of all the powers you’ve made • Choose your difficulty (Easy / Normal / Hard) and controls in Settings • Game Center leaderboards for each difficulty, plus achievements • Light and dark themes • Available in Japanese, English, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Korean, Spanish, French, and German Discover the satisfaction of watching your numbers grow.
