Read full description

ROTATRIX โ€” block puzzle with a unique twist. Rotate every piece before you place it. Clear blocks by filling rows and columns. Keep the board clean before the stones get in your way. Play solo for the highest score, or challenge a friend to a duel. Sounds simple? The combination of rotation, stones and strategy makes every game a new puzzle. FOUR GAME MODES NORMAL โ€” Classic block puzzle for endless play. Play as long as you want and build your highest score. ARCADE โ€” The exciting variant. Bombs appear in your tray and clear everything in a radius. Risk or strategy? DAILY โ€” One puzzle, one goal. Clear all stones in as few moves as possible. Everyone plays the same board and you see how you did compared to other players today. DUEL โ€” Play against a friend on the same board. Live with a time limit per move for a quick match, or at your own pace over multiple days โ€” make your move when it suits you. Who has the best eye for patterns? STONES AS CHALLENGE In single-player modes, stones appear on the board that must be cleared within three turns. FAIR PLAY No frustration from impossible pieces. ROTATRIX always ensures there is a valid spot. Getting stuck means you need to puzzle better, not that the game was unfair. EARN UNDO A wrong move? Watch a short video and get an undo. Maximum three per game โ€” forces you to make better decisions. PREMIUM (one-time purchase) - No ads - Unlimited undos - Family Sharing PRIVACY ROTATRIX collects no unnecessary data.
