Welcome to Whack Stack! A colorful 3D physics puzzle game where stacked materials, tall towers and unstable buildings are waiting to be knocked down. Aim your cannon, fire the shot, and watch the structure collapse piece by piece. Smash every stack, clear the site, and finish each level with one perfect cannonball. A SITE FULL OF STACKS TO SMASH Stone blocks, wooden boards, heavy crates, steel barrels and fragile parts are stacked high and ready to fall. Every scene is a new build site: stone walls, steel frames and heavy material stacks, all built to test your aim. Load the cannon, pick your angle, and blast the whole thing down in one satisfying wave of destruction. SIMPLE MECHANIC, CLEVER PHYSICS PUZZLE The mechanic is simple: aim, shoot, smash. But every stack is a real physics puzzle. Some stone blocks hold the whole structure together. Some crates and barrels only shift. One fragile piece can break, trigger a chain reaction and drop the whole stack. Shoot without aiming and the structure just shakes. Find the weak point, control the angle and the power, fire the perfect shot and let the destruction do the rest. WHY YOU'LL LOVE WHACK STACK! • Simple cannon gameplay: aim, shoot and smash the stack • Satisfying 3D physics destruction, with every block, board and piece falling in real time • Colorful destruction scenes: stacked towers, stone walls, bridges and tricky structures • Smash stone blocks, wooden boards, crates, barrels and fragile parts • Destructive chain reactions that knock a whole building down in one blast • Clever puzzle challenge: read the scene, find the weak point, fire the perfect cannonball • Fun, chaotic cannon physics with new levels and rewarding destruction • Short, satisfying levels, perfect for a quick smash session • Easy to play and learn, tricky to master EVERY SHOT COUNTS Aiming is a skill. Control the angle, control the power, trigger the reaction. Hit one fragile block and the barrel stack pops. Knock one board down and the crates follow. Clear every object, break every obstacle, and the stage is yours. Each perfect shot rewards you with new cannons, new stone structures and bigger destruction. READY, AIM, SMASH! The cannon is ready. The stack is standing tall. Blocks are stacked, balanced and waiting to fall. Aim the cannon, hit the weak point, smash the structure and clear the stage. Can you smash every stack with the perfect cannon shot? Download Whack Stack! and start your first destruction puzzle today.

Ready to bring the whole stack down? Aim the cannon. Pick your target. Tap to launch. One smart hit can smash blocks, trigger a chain reaction, and send everything crashing down. Clear fun physics puzzles, find cute monster surprises, and help the Smashfolks build a cozy, colorful home. WELCOME TO THE SMASHFOLKS’ WORLD The Smashfolks are a lively crew of cute little monsters who stay by your side. Look closely at each level: playful monster surprises are tucked into the scenery for curious players to discover. As you progress, new parts of the home and more Smashfolks appear. Every successful smash helps a small corner grow into a cheerful carnival of characters, color, and celebration. The more stacks you smash, the more of their world you reveal. FIND THE SHOT THAT CHANGES EVERYTHING Each level gives you a limited supply of cannonballs, so the target matters. Read the shape of the stack before you tap the cannon. A low hit may knock the stack down. A side hit may push one block into another. The biggest object is not always the best target. Each cannon hit leaves the stack in a new shape. Test an idea and watch what moves. Then adjust the next cannon hit. Every cannon hit reshapes the stack. Smash a support, hit a loose block, or use one part of the stack to knock down the rest. Smash from below, smash from the side, or smash straight through. Each hit gives you a clue. The fun puzzle is finding the cannon shot that changes everything. MATERIALS MAKE EVERY LEVEL FEEL DIFFERENT Glass is easy to smash. Wood passes a hit through the stack. Stone adds weight, while metal can hold everything together. Cans roll into nearby blocks, and ice slides through open spaces. A cannon hit on the same stack can still create a different result. Because every material moves differently, the same cannon hit can create a new result. A second cannon hit may behave completely differently. Blast through the middle, smash the base, or knock the stack sideways. The physics decide whether the blocks bounce, break, slide, or tumble down. Every stack offers a new way to smash. BUILD THE SMASHFOLKS’ HOME Every cleared level moves the Smashfolks’ world forward. Open new home areas, meet more monster friends, and watch their cozy corner become a livelier place to gather and celebrate. Each stack you smash opens the way to something new. WHAT YOU’LL FIND IN THE GAME • Tap a target and launch the cannonball • Aim the cannon and make each hit count • Control the cannon with simple tap controls • Use one cannon hit to smash an entire stack • Learn from every hit and improve the next cannon shot • Smash stacks with a limited number of shots • Hit supports and knock connected blocks down • Create satisfying chain reactions • Solve physics puzzles made from mixed materials • Blast and smash glass, wood, stone, metal, cans, and ice • Smash the final blocks and finish the stack • Open new home areas and meet more cute monsters The next stack is ready. Choose a target, aim the cannon, and make the hit that brings it down. Smash the stack and discover more of the Smashfolks’ world!
