Tap to fire the cannon, find the weak spot and knock the whole tower down. Boom Stack Smash is a cannon game built on real physics destruction: nothing is scripted, and every collapse comes from your shot. REAL PHYSICS DESTRUCTION • Wood splinters, glass and ceramic shatter, and stone barely breaks, so you topple it instead. • Iron can't be smashed: push it off the table instead. • Set off TNT and one blast triggers every charge within reach. Powder kegs take down everything nearby. • Every piece falls by physics, not by animation. Knock out one support and watch the tower lean, wobble and crash. TAP, FIRE, KNOCK IT DOWN • Tap where you want to hit and the cannon fires. One tap, one ball, built for one-handed portrait play. • Knock every piece off the table with the balls you have and earn up to three stars. • Stuck? A Bomb blasts everything nearby, a Power Shot punches through iron, and a Triple Shot fans three balls across a wide board. • Every board is a small demolition puzzle: sometimes the smartest shot is not the biggest one. ISLANDS TO SMASH • Travel from a carnival to pirate coves, the sands of Egypt, the canals of Venice, the streets of Kyiv and the surface of the Moon. • Each island brings its own pieces and tricks, from snow that cracks before it breaks to round stones that roll away at a nudge. SHORT, SATISFYING SESSIONS • Short levels, made for a quick break. • Daily missions and a daily reward give you a reason to come back tomorrow. • Unlock cannons and balls as you play and keep them in your Collection. If you like cannon games, knock-down puzzles and satisfying destruction, Boom Stack Smash is made for you. Line up the shot, tap and enjoy the crash. Boom Stack Smash is free to play. It contains ads and optional in-app purchases, including an option to remove ads.
