Bloxa is a calm, single-player block puzzle. Drag pieces onto an 8×8 grid, fill rows or columns to clear them, and chain combos to send your score soaring. No accounts. No timers in classic mode. No sneaky energy meters. Just you and the board. — FEATURES — • Classic Endless: the timeless 8×8 block puzzle, played on your terms • Adventure: 100 hand-tuned levels with score, lines, color, combo, and survival objectives — every level proven solvable by an automated solver • Tactile feel: rich Core Haptics on every drop, line clear, and combo • Synthesized sound: subtle audio cues — no canned royalty-free loops • Runtime language switch: change between English and Turkish without restarting • Four themes: free Midnight, plus Ceramic, Neon, and Pastel via a one-time purchase • Built for iOS 17 — fluid SwiftUI animations, designed for iPhone and iPad • Works offline — internet only needed if you choose to see ads — REMOVE ADS — Don't want banners or interstitials? A single one-time purchase ($6.99) removes every ad in the game, forever. The rewarded "Continue" option still works if you ever want to revive a run. — PRIVACY — Bloxa has no backend server. Your high scores, daily streak, and preferences live on your device and never leave it. The only data ever sent off-device is what Google AdMob needs to show ads — and only if you allow it via the iOS tracking prompt. — FAIRNESS NOTE — Adventure levels are not random: every single one has been verified solvable by an automated greedy solver before shipping. If a run feels unfair, that's a bug — please write to us.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Block at none against Bloxa's shown. Bloxa's advantage is update cadence (daily vs fortnightly). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
