Welcome to Cuboid Jam, the vibrant block puzzle where each move matters. Guide colorful cuboids into their matching baskets by rotating, rolling, and clearing the perfect path. Each turn reshapes the board, so careful planning is the key to victory. Every puzzle is two challenges in one. First, clear a path by moving obstacles out of the way. Then carefully roll each cuboid into its matching basket before time runs out. Finding the right route, and the right sequence of moves, is the secret to mastering the game. New levels bring fresh twists. Crates, ice blocks, moving gates, arrows, shutters, layered blocks, and multi-color cuboids create increasingly clever puzzles. When the challenge heats up, powerful boosters like Hammer, Magnet, and Freeze help you break through the jam. Plan ahead, create space, and guide your cuboids home. One smart move can unlock the entire board. One wrong move can leave you completely stuck. Some puzzles are quick and easy to enjoy. Others give your brain a serious workout. Either way, solving one delivers that rewarding "got it!" moment. And if you get stuck, optional hints can help you find your next move.

About

Northdown

Features
Read full description

Northdown is a 3D gravity puzzle. Your character cannot climb — so you tip the whole world instead. Swipe, the world rotates, the blocks tumble, and a wall becomes a floor. 100 hand-built levels. Free, offline, no wifi needed. A GRAVITY PUZZLE GAME WHERE THE WORLD MOVES, NOT YOU Gravity is the move. Rotate the world 90° and every block falls somewhere new — including you. Each level is a small floating world with exactly one way out, and finding it feels like a trick you taught yourself. If you have played a gravity puzzle before, you have not played one that turns the whole map. 100 LEVELS ACROSS 21 PAINTED PLACES Balloon skies, waterfall islands, a red canyon, temples in the clouds, the aurora, deep space, and lava spires at the very end. The sky changes every fifth level, and the light on the blocks follows it. A 3D GRAVITY MAZE IN YOUR POCKET Every stage is a small 3D maze built out of gravity blocks. Walk, tip, watch it fall, walk again. Simple to pick up, and the later levels are a genuine brain teaser. STARS, NOT TIMERS Every level has a shortest route. Match it for three stars. Nothing counts down, nothing runs out, nothing blocks you from playing. A relaxing puzzle game you can put down and pick straight back up. A NEW PUZZLE EVERY DAY The daily puzzle is the same one for everybody in the world. Build a streak — one free streak freeze a week forgives a missed day. SIX CHARACTERS TO EARN Sprocket the field medic, Rajan, Kofi, Zahra, Wisp and Bolt. Each has their own walk, their own voice and their own way of celebrating. Unlocked by playing, never by paying. PLAYS OFFLINE, ANYWHERE No account, no sign-in, no internet. An offline puzzle game for flights, commutes and dead zones. BUILT FOR ONE HAND Two on-screen pads: left walks, right tips the world. Portrait only, one thumb, any time. ACCESSIBLE Reduce-motion and colour-blind modes are built in. Coins are earned by playing and spent on hints, an extra undo, or a skip when you are truly stuck. Optional ads pay coins, and a one-time purchase removes the ads between levels forever. If you like gravity puzzles, isometric puzzle games, 3D logic games and brain teasers, Northdown was built for you.
