About

Blocked In

Features
Read full description

Blocked In is a relaxing yet brain-teasing puzzle game where the goal is simple: move blocks of the same colour across the board until they reach each other and connect. Slide and rearrange colourful pieces through tight spaces, bring matching blocks together, and enjoy the satisfying moment when a complete shape clicks into place and clears from the board. The challenge is getting them there. Each board is built around narrow corridors, enclosed spaces, and limited routes, so blocks can’t simply move wherever you want. Some pieces have only one way out, and moving one block can open a path for another — or accidentally get in its way. Read the board, plan your moves, and work out which matching colours need to meet first. As you progress, new obstacles make every puzzle more interesting. Grey riveted blocks stay fixed in place, arrow blocks can only move in one direction, and ice-covered blocks take extra effort to free. You’ll also encounter locked pieces that need a key and mystery pieces that reveal their hidden colour as you play. Every level is designed to be solvable — the challenge is finding the right route before time runs out. HOW TO PLAY • Slide blocks through the available spaces on the board. • Bring blocks of the same colour together to complete a matching shape. • Clear completed shapes to create more room for your next moves. • Plan ahead — narrow routes mean some blocks may have only one way through. • Find keys, work around fixed blockers, free ice-covered pieces, and solve the board before time runs out. FEATURES • Relaxing gameplay with a satisfying brain-teasing twist. • Clever boards filled with narrow corridors, tight spaces, and tricky routes. • Colourful blocks with matching symbols and shapes, making them easy to identify at a glance. • Grey blockers, directional arrow blocks, ice-covered pieces, keys, and mystery colours. • Simple drag controls that are easy to learn but reward careful planning. • Helpful boosters, including a mallet to remove a troublesome block and extra time when the clock is running low. • Satisfying clears as matching blocks finally reach each other and disappear from the board. Blocked In starts simple, but every new board asks you to think a little further ahead. One smart move can open the route you need, while moving the wrong block too soon can leave another piece trapped. Look for the available paths, figure out which colours can reach each other, and turn a crowded board into a perfectly cleared puzzle. If you enjoy colourful puzzle games with logic, movement, and satisfying solutions, Blocked In is ready to put your planning skills to the test. Match the blocks, clear the board, and see how far you can go.
