TEN

Features
Read full description

TEN-X is a neon-lit block puzzle game set in digital world. Drop numbered blocks into the grid and clear them by making pairs that add up to 10. Simple to learn — impossible to master. HOW TO PLAY • Tap a column to drop the next block • Two blocks that sum to 10 disappear — for example, 3 + 7, 4 + 6, or 1 + 9 • X blocks (value 0) act as wildcards and match with any number • Chain clears to build combos and multiply your score • The game ends when a column overflows FEATURES • Pair Blocks: Two blocks drop as one unit. Either block can match independently, and clearing both simultaneously earns a bonus score. • SYSTEM OVERRIDE: At certain levels, the grid enters SYSTEM OVERRIDE mode. The target number shifts — and only newly dropped blocks can trigger matches. Adapt fast or get buried. • Glitch Blocks: Mysterious "?" blocks hide their value until they land. Decrypt them for a tactical edge. • Three Difficulty Levels: EASY, NORMAL, and HARD each bring different time pressure and block drop speeds. Push your limits. • Neon Aesthetic: Every block glows with neon color. The grid pulses. SYSTEM OVERRIDE floods the screen in Red. This is not your average puzzle game. • Global Leaderboard: Compete for the top score against players worldwide via Game Center. TEN-X rewards pattern recognition, quick decisions, and the courage to let the grid breathe — right up until it doesn't.

Easy to learn, satisfying to master, and a great way to train your brain for five minutes or fifty. WHY BLOCK PEAK • Always solvable.

HOW TO PLAY • Drag a block onto the grid, or tap to place if you prefer. • Complete full rows or columns to clear them. • Clear on back-to-back moves to keep your combo alive; a short grace window forgives a quiet move. • Empty the whole board for a perfect-clear bonus. • Clear a line through a golden cell for extra points.
