Arf Blocks is a calm, offline block puzzle. Drag one of three pieces onto a 10×10 grid, fit them in, and clear full rows or columns to score. No ads. No tracking. No accounts. No in-app purchases. No sneaky microtransactions disguised as "coins". The game works with your device in airplane mode, and nothing you do ever leaves it. Fourteen piece shapes cycle through a weighted bag so the flow stays interesting — you get the shapes you need just often enough. Clear multiple lines at once for a growing bonus. When nothing fits, the game ends cleanly. Features • A 10×10 grid and fourteen classic puzzle shapes • Three pieces in the tray; choose your order • Exponential bonus for clearing multiple lines in a single placement • Game state saves automatically — pick up exactly where you left off • Full haptic feedback on placement and line clears • Dark, calm, distraction-free interface • Sound is off by default • Portrait on iPhone, all orientations on iPad • Works offline, always Privacy Arf Blocks collects nothing about you.
