Bloks is a minimalist block puzzle you'll want to come back to. Three shapes wait in the tray. Drag them onto the 8×8 board, clear lines, chase combos. No timers. No "buy more moves" prompts. Just you, the shapes, and a clean design. GAME MODES ▨ CLASSIC — endless classic, play until nothing fits ▨ HARD — tough pieces only, for cleared-everything players ▨ ULTRA — a hybrid, the ultimate challenge △ TRIANGLES — triangular board, completely different geometry ◧ DAILY — a new puzzle each day, build your streak ▧ CUSTOM — set your own board size and piece pool ▤ LEVELS — 100 hand-crafted puzzles with efficiency bonuses WHAT'S INSIDE • Power-ups: bomb, hammer, swap, rotate • 13 block styles and 10 colour palettes to unlock • 40+ achievements • Daily streaks with a fire icon • Light and dark themes • Tactile feedback on every action • English and Russian • No ads, no pay-to-win DESIGN PHILOSOPHY Bloks is built to be a game you open for two minutes waiting in line, or twenty minutes before bed. Every interface, every animation, every colour is tuned so nothing distracts from the main thing — the quiet in which you solve the puzzle. Inspired by Alto's Odyssey, Threes! and Monument Valley — restrained typography, calm pastel colours, no shouting buttons or flashing badges. UPDATE 2.2 • Redesigned minimalist main menu • Refreshed Game Over / Pause / Level Complete • 6 new shop items: Berry, Neon, Earth, Midnight palettes and Chip, Honey block styles • Achievements one tap from the menu • Tactile feedback everywhere • Back button tight to the Dynamic Island • Bug fixes for the swap power-up and back-navigation Play one round. You'll see why Bloks stays in your "Games" folder.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Bloks at none against Stray Arrows's 1. Bloks also leads on ads (none vs shown). Stray Arrows's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 6 weeks) and device support (3 vs 1). On price there is nothing between them.
