Stacked Cubes!

Features
Read full description

One plank. One tower. Two players. Only one gets to place the last block. Stacked Cubes is a turn-based stacking duel. You and your opponent take turns dropping blocks on the same tower, balanced on a plank that tilts with every piece. Cross the dotted line or make the tower fall, and you lose the match. HOW IT WORKS Tap a piece to rotate it, drag it onto the tower to drop it. You have 10 seconds per turn. Build smart: every block you place changes the balance for your opponent too. PLAY YOUR WAY - Play: face a new opponent every match and climb the ranks. - 2 Players: challenge a friend on the same phone, passing it back and forth. CLIMB THE LEAGUES Win matches to earn points and rank up from Bronze to Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, Master and Legend. Every win opens a chest full of coins, and a daily reward waits for you each day. BOOSTERS AND BUBBLES Undo takes back the block you just placed. The Rocket blasts away the bottom row. The Anchor locks the plank level for the rest of the match. Pop the x2 bubble and your opponent must place two blocks in a row! MAKE IT YOURS Pick your name, your avatar, your country flag, your cube color and its finish: classic, foam, metal, chrome, gold or neon. Quick matches, simple rules, and a tower that can fall at any moment.
