Build the tower. Fight the physics. Don’t let it fall. Staxed is a physics-based stacking game where every object changes the balance. Drag, position and stack awkward everyday objects one by one. Washing machines, furniture, shelves and more can turn a stable tower into a disaster in seconds. Every placement matters. Put an object slightly too far to one side and the whole tower can start to lean. Recover it, keep stacking and push your score higher — or watch everything come crashing down. Easy to pick up. Hard to put down. Even harder to master. STACK THE UNSTACKABLE No identical blocks. No perfect shapes. Different objects bring different sizes, shapes and balance points, forcing you to constantly adjust how you build your tower. How long can you keep it standing? FEATURES • Physics-based object stacking • Awkward shapes that test your balance and precision • Endless high-score gameplay • Fast restarts for quick “one more run” sessions • Simple drag-and-place controls • Haptic feedback for satisfying placements • Increasingly risky towers as your score climbs USE POWER-UPS TO SAVE YOUR RUN When your tower starts getting dangerous, power-ups can give you another chance. • SHIELD - protect your stack from disaster • SLOW TIME - give yourself more control over difficult placements • CLEAR PLATFORM - remove troublesome objects from your tower • DOUBLE POINTS - earn twice the score • +100 - instantly boost your total EVERY RUN IS DIFFERENT A safe placement can become a problem several objects later. A tower that looks impossible might somehow survive. And one tiny mistake can bring everything down. Whether you have a minute to spare or you’re chasing a new personal best, Staxed is built around quick attempts, risky decisions and the constant temptation to try just one more stack. How high can you go before gravity wins? Sound effects by OpenMindAudio on Pixaby
