Bricky Blast

Three pieces are waiting and the board is half full. Bricky Blast is a calm but crafty block puzzle that teaches you to plan a move ahead. Open the page and drag the first piece in.

How does Bricky Blast play?

Block pieces of different shapes appear at the bottom of the screen. You drag them onto the empty squares of the board and drop them. When a row or column fills up completely it clears away and opens space for you. Pieces cannot be rotated, so you have to check whether a shape fits before committing.

The game ends on one rule: if none of the pieces in hand fits on the board, the run is over. That is why leaving small gaps you can never fill becomes the biggest problem over time. Experienced players keep the middle of the board open and always reserve room for the large pieces.

Clearing more than one line in the same move counts as a combo and multiplies your score. That is also the route up the global leaderboard.

Why kids like it

There is no time pressure, so you can think as long as you want. Shape fitting and space planning improve without you noticing. Even a short run can end with a satisfying chain of clears.

Is it safe?

Colourful blocks and a plain board. Nothing frightening and nothing unpleasant. Suitable for all ages.
