drag. drop. clear. repeat until your battery dies. cleared is a block puzzle game. drag block shapes onto an 8x8 grid, fill complete rows and columns to clear them, chain combos together, and chase your high score. that's it. no tutorials, no storylines, no fluff. we built cleared because we love block puzzle games but got tired of watching a 30-second ad for a game we'd never download every time we cleared a row. so we made the version we actually wanted to play — easy on the eyes, easy to pick up, and zero interruptions. ā–ø no ads. ever. no video ads between rounds. no banners blocking the board. no "watch to continue." rated 4+ because there's nothing in here that shouldn't be. just you and the grid. ā–ø how to play drag and drop block shapes onto the 8x8 grid. fill a complete row or column to clear it. clear multiple rows at once for combos and bonus points. keep the board open as long as you can. run out of space and it's game over. simple to learn. deceptively hard to master. ā–ø play at your own pace no timers. no move limits. no lives. no waiting. pick it up for two minutes on the train or lose an hour on the couch — we won't judge either way. ā–ø smart difficulty pieces start simple and get more complex as you improve. every session plays different. every session you learn something new. ā–ø designed to not annoy you clean color themes with light and dark modes. smooth animations. sounds that feel good or turn them off entirely. no pop-ups begging you to rate the app. no push notifications. no flashing anything. ā–ø works everywhere plays offline. no wifi needed. iphone and ipad. dark mode. haptic feedback. ā–ø your data? we don't want it. no tracking. no data collection. no account required. we don't know who you are and we'd like to keep it that way. ā–ø why cleared? we're a small studio that thinks games should respect your time, your eyes, and your wallet. no ads. no subscriptions. just a really good block puzzle game at a fair price. 10 free games. love it? unlock unlimited play for $3.99. one time. forever.
