Pixel Grind Swipe. Slide. Grind. Pixel Grind is a satisfying puzzle game where every move sends all blocks sliding across the board. On each edge, a grinder waits. Swipe toward it, and it devours only the blocks that match its color. Each level is a pixel-art picture made from colored blocks. Read the board, choose your direction, and grind every block away until nothing remains. No chains. No luck. Just clean logic, sharp planning, and satisfying clears. * Swipe left, right, up, or down all blocks move together * Blocks slide to the edge, 2048-style * The grinder only consumes matching color blocks * Clear the entire board to solve the level
