A Meteor is coming down on your Grinder. You have one Breaker and no time. Swing and smash everything in reach: Meteoroids, Cores, Geodes, Crystals, Nebulas. Every stone feeds the Grinder and pushes it one Level closer to completing the Universe. Some stones fight back, some pay off. Electric chains between targets, Explosive clears the field, Laser cuts deep, Bouncing ricochets, Rainbow supercharges your crits, Pearl widens your swing, Piggy multiplies your money. Then the run changes shape without warning. Outrun the Meteor, dig up Buried Treasure, hammer through a round of Whack a Mole, dodge an Ore Trap, chase the Snake, or get chased by the Enemy Snake. And under all of it, a factory. Feed raw ore to the Refinery, forge materials in the Workshop, stack them in Storage, and research Technologies that break stones for you: Clone, Wave Hit, One Shot Kill. Fight through hundreds of Levels across dozens of Universes. Finish one, and a bigger, richer, stranger Universe opens up. Break. Refine. Build. Repeat.
