More about this game
Your goal is to build the tallest tower possible by dropping moving tiles on top of each other. The core loop involves timing your drops so the new tile aligns perfectly with the one below. If it overhangs, the extra piece is sliced off, making your next target smaller. The game gets harder as the tiles move faster with each successful drop, starting at a base speed and increasing by 18 units per point until reaching a maximum speed of 720. A run ends when you miss the tower completely.
Tips
- Aim for perfect drops to earn +2 points instead of +1. A perfect drop requires aligning the tile within a 22-unit tolerance.
- The tile moves faster as your score increases, up to a maximum speed of 720. Anticipate the speed changes as you build.
- If you overhang, the tile shrinks, making the next drop harder. Focus on accuracy over speed to maintain a wide landing area.
Questions
How do I get a perfect drop?
You get a perfect drop if the moving tile is within a 22-unit tolerance of the tile below it. This awards 2 points and keeps the tile size the same.
What happens if the tile overhangs?
The overhanging part is sliced off and falls away. The tile you just placed becomes smaller, which means your target for the next drop is narrower.
Does the game get faster?
Yes, the tile movement speed increases by 18 units for every point you score, up to a maximum speed of 720, making it harder to time your drops.
