ClearRow is a line-clearing block puzzle where you place pieces on a square board and clear completed rows or columns. The rules are simple: place pieces, complete a line, and clear it. That is all it takes, but every move can change the board and the next move ahead. In Normal Game, you can choose the board size, difficulty, KEEP, and whether rotation is enabled. Time Attack mode is also included, where you race to reach the target score as fast as possible. You can also choose your theme color and adjust the look of the game to your style. There are no ads. Normal Game high scores and Time Attack records support iCloud sync. No data is sent to developer-run servers. Simple to learn, but rewarding to improve. ClearRow is recommended for anyone who enjoys focused block puzzles.
