Break the glass. Pour the beads. Reveal the picture. Beads Break is a satisfying color-sorting puzzle with a twist: every level hides a pixel-art picture under a layer of stained glass. Tap a pane to shatter it, and the colored beads underneath tumble down into your tank. Crates below pull out matching colors one by one โ keep the beads flowing and the picture slowly comes to life. But be careful: the tank can only hold so much. Break too fast and it overflows. Break too slow and you'll never see what's hiding underneath. Every tap is a choice. HOW TO PLAY โข Tap glass panes to shatter them and release colored beads โข Beads pour into the tank and pile up with real physics โข Crates below collect matching colors automatically โข Fill a crate and a new one slides in โ keep the chain going โข Clear every bead to reveal the hidden picture! WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT โข Insanely satisfying glass-shattering action โ shards, shakes and pops โข A hidden picture in every level: animals, food, patterns and more โข Easy to learn, tense to master โ manage your tank like a pro โข Quick levels, perfect for one-handed play anywhere โข Relaxing to play, but every level keeps you thinking Can you reveal them all without overflowing the tank?

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Beads Break at none against Hook Chain's 7. Hook Chain's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 5 weeks). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
