FLOOD THE BOARD. BEAT THE CLOCK. SURVIVE THE SURGE. Floodlings is a fast-paced color-flood puzzle game: pick a color, flood connected tiles, and take over the entire board before your timer runs out. Simple to learn, brutal to master. HOW TO PLAY Tap a color to flood your territory outward. Every match matters โ€” chain big captures back to back to build combo multipliers and rack up bonus points. Pick wrong, and you'll lose a life. LEVELS THAT KEEP ESCALATING The board grows, colors multiply, and the clock gets tighter as you climb. Every level is scored on speed and efficiency, earning you up to 3 stars based on how clean your run was. THREE LIVES, ONE RUN You've got 3 lives per game. Run low? Watch a quick ad to revive and keep your streak alive, or spend coins to refill mid-level. MAKE IT YOURS Unlock new color palettes as you play โ€” Classic neon, a full Zoo collection, and a Fruit lineup โ€” and switch your board's look anytime from the Store. COINS, YOUR WAY Earn coins by playing, or grab a pack to speed things up. Spend them on palettes, extra time, or life refills whenever a level gets tight. Prefer an uninterrupted run? Remove ads permanently with a single purchase. Quick sessions, real strategy, endless replayability. How far can you flood?

Aliens have locked the houses of a small quarry village. A green light seeps in through the windows, and if it fills a room, the house is lost. You are the quarry's blaster. Each night you go into ten houses, one after another. Drop dynamite, read the flame's path and let one stick set off the next. When the last alien falls, the family climbs out of the cellar and opens the door. โ€ข Chain explosions: see which stick the flame will reach before it goes off โ€ข The green light spreads ring by ring, so waiting is never safe โ€ข After each house, take one thing from it for the rest of the night โ€ข Families you save move to the quarry camp and upgrade you for good โ€ข Daily map: the same ten houses for everyone, one try a day โ€ข D-pad or joystick controls, English and Turkish No account, no energy bars. Progress stays on your device. Privacy: https://boomerman.dumpyapps.com/privacy
