Simple, satisfying, ad-free. Blocklove is a calm, minimalist puzzle game played on an 8x8 grid. Place pieces, clear rows and columns, and chase your best score at your own pace. It pairs perfectly with audiobooks, podcasts, and the occasional Zoom meeting. Each round gives you three pieces and one deceptively simple challenge: find the perfect place for each. Every block earns points, completed rows and columns disappear for bonuses, and clearing multiple lines at once can send your score soaring. Pull off the coveted full-screen clear for an even bigger payoff. Keep carving out space, because the moment none of your available pieces fit, your run is over.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Cleared at Free against Blocklove's $0.99. Cleared also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 9 days). Blocklove's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and chart position (#167 vs unranked). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
