About

Stacktop

Features
Read full description

Stacktop is a fast, one-tap stacking game set against a glowing neon skyline. A block slides across the top of the screen. Tap to drop it onto the tower — the part that overlaps stays, the overhang is sliced away, and the tower gets narrower with every imperfect landing. Nail a drop dead-center for a perfect: it builds a combo and hands a little width back, so precision pays off. How high can you go?
