More about this game
In Rock Pop, you control a small cannon at the bottom of a canyon, blasting numbered rocks that bounce around the screen. Each hit reduces a rock's number, and when it reaches zero, the rock splits into two smaller pieces. The goal is to clear all the rocks in a level without getting squashed. Popped rocks drop coins, which you can spend between levels to upgrade your Fire Rate, Firepower, and Coin Value. Every fifth level features a boss. If a rock lands on you, you lose a life, but you get one free extra life per level.
Tips
- Don't stay in one spot for too long; parked cannons become targets for dropping rocks.
- Focus on smaller rocks first to clear space, as big rocks split into multiple pieces.
- Grab Twin Shot and Slow-Mo power-ups when they drop to help clear crowded screens.
Questions
What happens when a rock's number reaches zero?
When a rock's number reaches zero, it splits into two smaller rocks. You must keep shooting the smaller pieces until they are completely destroyed.
How do I get upgrades?
Popped rocks drop coins. Drive your cannon over the coins to collect them, and spend them between levels on Fire Rate, Firepower, or Coin Value.
What happens if a rock hits me?
If a rock lands on your cannon, you lose a life. You get one free extra life per level, but if you get hit again, you will have to retry the level.
