About

PopBlocks3D

Features
Read full description

Pop every block. The whole cube is the puzzle. PopBlocks3D is a 3D match puzzle where the board isn't a grid โ€” it's a floating sculpture made entirely of colored blocks. Every piece you can see is a piece you can play. Clear the last one and nothing remains. TAP TO POP, ROTATE TO FIND MORE Tap any group of three or more connected blocks of the same color and watch them burst. Matches connect across all six faces, so the group you want is often hidden around the back. Spin the sculpture with a finger to hunt for it. Every move takes two taps: the first shows exactly what will clear, the second commits it. Mis-taps are free. 120 LEVELS ACROSS 12 REGIONS Meadows, ember ridges and sky gardens, each with its own palette and challenge. Clear a color, free the trapped stars, break through stone, beat the clock. BLOCKS THAT FIGHT BACK Stone that takes three hits. Glass that cracks. Sticky blocks that refuse to fall. Seeds that grow, fuses that burn, spinners that turn the board under you. FOUR WAYS TO PLAY Standard โ€” the campaign, with objectives and star ratings Unlimited โ€” no move limit, just you and the shape Timed โ€” beat the objective before the clock runs out Timed Unlimited โ€” endless sculptures against one shared timer DAILY CHALLENGE A fresh puzzle every day, worth ten times the coins the first time you win it. PLAYS OFFLINE No account required. Game Center leaderboards if you want them, and your best scores are kept on your device either way.
