GridBlock is a relaxing block puzzle. Drag and drop blocks onto the 9x9 board, fill rows or columns, and watch them disappear in one satisfying sweep. No time pressure, no ticking clock, just you, the board, and your next move. The game is intentionally kept simple. A warm aesthetic, soft tapping sounds, and subtle haptics make every placement feel tactile. Perfect for five minutes in a waiting room or an hour on the couch. FEATURES • Classic 9x9 board with three blocks per round • Smooth drag & drop with haptic feedback • Theme with a calm, premium look • High score tracking to push your own limits • Revive option if you get stuck, so you can keep playing • Adjust sound and haptics separately • Works completely offline, no account needed • No time limit. Just play at your own pace HOW TO PLAY Drag one of the three blocks to the board. Fill an entire row or column to clear it and score points. If none of your three blocks fit, the game is over. The more lines you clear at once, the more points you earn. WHY GRIDBLOCK Many puzzle games overload you with pop-ups, timers, and flashing rewards. GridBlock chooses the exact opposite: a clean design, no distractions, and all focus on the puzzle itself. Ideal for relaxing, focusing, or just doing nothing else for a while. Enjoy the game!
