Best game ever , but one problem
First few minutes and I'm already obsessed! I seriously wont stop playing in now, I love it. Brilliant game, I recommend it to everyone who loves a good game like me , one small problem though , in the advert , it said no ads, and I was so exited because I can’t find a game without ads , but when I downloaded it , there was ads , so that’s disappointing , but also FALSE ADVERTISING! If you could get rid of the ads though , so I don’t have to see the annoying black box that keeps popping up , that would be great! Plus , can you add the skins button please , it’s not showing up!
Thanks.
16 Jan - WHY DOESNT IT CHANGE COLOUR ANYMORE! Terrible update!
10 feb - can you make the x in the corner that closes the advert bigger , thanks

BEST GAME
Literally when ever I’m bored block blast when I’m on a call still on block blast best game ever
2026-02-10
Hello
Rated 5 stars so u see this the adverts for this game are FAKE there is no skin changing AND there is a ton of adverts i know this will sound weird but if you are offline it wont load ads so you just can’t just skip it easily please fix this and ADD SKINS it would be great also to the devs response im sorry for being harsh about the ads and the fake skins but it really would be great to have but i value your opinion on whether you can implement this to the normal game
2026-02-10
SO SATISFYING
My friend told me to play this game and I got bored but then I started playing it and I got really addicted cause of the satisfaction in the game GR8 Game!
2026-02-10
Cool game 😁😁😁
I played this game NONSTOP and it’s much more enjoyable than Roblox and I always know that whenever I play and have an ad block blast ad always comes on and I thought if I downloaded the game so it would not appear the ad. W DEVS
2026-02-10
Clearly tracks your pieces and eventually gives you the worst choices.
I wish this game was fully random. It very obviously gives you pieces based on what you currently have on the board. It starts with easy, then out of nowhere you get the worst possible choices.
Terrible design.

Absolute cinema
This is peak mobile gaming. It is so beautiful it should win an Oscar!
2026-02-10
Ads and starting position
Every time i restart i get an ad which is stupid enough, but then the place i return to is filled with blocks then i place one block and lose instantly so then i get another ads

To many ads
This is really satisfying and cool and fun to play, but there are wayyyyyy too many ads!!!!!! Like every single time I play, I have to watch an ad and then there’s more ads and more and more and it’s really annoying!!!! But the game itself is really fun and satisfying to play but too many ads
2026-02-09
How could it improve
My personal opinion is it’s a great game and I love how they obsess it out but there’s one key feature for me that makes it up tumble down so that the game can’t be to its best potential. I feel like there are too many ads going on and they last for quite awhile after you played games you have ads again and again again and it gets a bit agitated as even if you’ve not played for long, you use it first it will literally just give you an ad. I also think it couldn’t improve that enable you to go up against people with scores. I just think so much more improving. I do like the what it ultimate stands for though
2026-02-09
Update problem
After last update point get stuck and it don’t increase anymore
2026-02-09
woah
good game seriously but there are to many ads so i switch it on airplane mode
2026-02-08
Constant adds
This game purposely gives you impossible situations to make you watch adds.It also makes adds unskippable until you download it. This is not worth it spen your time on something better.
2026-02-08
Best app I have!!
It is so good! I downloaded it bc it was no1 in puzzles so I thought it had to be decent, I was so wrong. It is rly fun and good and super addictive! I just find the adds excessively long but that’s it
2026-02-08

Really good addictive game until on the adventure mode it suddenly puts you back onto level 1 and you lose all your progress and have to start all over again!
2026-02-08
Annoying
I think it DESERVES a 1 star because had it downloaded over a year and not giving me high enough score when getting a few matches in a row, tried it on a friends phone got 6 matches 10,000, and on mine I got 8 matches and I got only 1k. Whatever u do don’t download

2026-02-08
Adverts
Love the game but I cannot get rid of adverts to go to the next one. So I have to shut the app and start the level again, very annoying
2026-02-08
Good game just a bit annoyed
Overall a good game- fun, a good time passer.
My only problem is I don’t like all the different modes that appear in the classic one. It keeps on coming up with different things like a pastel mode, a rainbow mode which is incredibly distracting. I really hope that the classic mode stays like how it is advertised in ads and instead of having events in the classic mode they have their own modes.
2026-02-08
5 stars!
5 stars!it’s very fun and helps me with my anxious stress

Block blast
Block blast is probably the best game I have ever played in my life love it ❤️❤️
2026-02-07
You’re kidding
How has this got five stars? While it’s a good game, the ads make it impossible to play after a few goes. The starting blocks get harder and harder but the adverts that follow when you fail don’t get shorter. So you spend less and less time playing and more time watching adverts so it becomes frustrating and pointless. I do understand that a free game has to have ads but a 30-second burst would be more appropriate. People might actually play the game longer and see more ads.
2026-02-07
U lied
U said that u can color blocks its a lie I hope u read this review and if u don’t make it a feature I’m deleting it or u get rid of the ad
2026-02-07
Latest update
I love this game and the family are fighting to get the highest score but after the last update the ads are becoming a joke now, 120 seconds then followed by a another add before you can carry on, it’s getting to the point I don’t want to play anymore
2026-02-07
makes me sad

Block Blast!
Black Blast is genuinely amazing and lives up to the hype in every way. From the moment you experience it, you can tell how much effort and creativity went into making it stand out. Everything about Black Blast feels powerful, polished, and exciting—it grabs your attention instantly and keeps it.
What really makes Black Blast special is how intense and memorable it is. The quality is top-tier, the execution is smooth, and it delivers way more than expected. It’s one of those things that doesn’t just meet expectations—it blows right past them.
If you’re looking for something bold, impressive, and unforgettable, Black Blast is absolutely worth it. Once you try it, it’s hard not to be impressed.
2026-02-01
Good but there’s a problem . Plz developers see this🙏
POV: every time I run out of space to put the blocks it says “ would u lk to swap blocks 4 an ad” and I’m lk ‘no’ but then it gives me an ad anyway. and the ads r super slow so I just end up waiting lk 10 minutes or just reset the app and it’s rlly annoying Also (this has nothing to do with the app but yh) at the home menu there’s lk ads 4 different games lk no ones gunna play them lk y put them there 2 advertise ? Lk its just dumb lk what if ppl already have the apps their advertising? Plus jo ones gunna actually click on the ads bc they’re on block blast 2 play block blast not to play another game. And anyway the game developers would want the players to play their game not someone else’s lk I understand if ur friends with the ppl who make the other games but if ur not then y put them there?

GOOD GAME BUT READ!
This game used to be so much fun. Without a doubt the most addicting game on the whole AppStore… UNTIL they started adding blocks at the start of a round. It annoys me so much to the point where I just restart but I haven’t had a round where the board starts empty in weeks. Sometimes the board will start with a certain layout where you can clear it with the three pieces you are given but other times the board is nearly full, It’s absolutely infuriating I wish there was an option to turn it off. I unironically don’t play this game anymore because of it. That and the sheer amount of adds it’s shoves down your throat it’s honestly ridiculous. I get that they have to make money but come on, is an add after round and sometimes even when you place a block really necessary. It completely ruins the fun. Give this game a go because it can be fun but honestly I won’t be playing again unless there are changes
2026-01-08
My honest opinions on the game.
This game is amazingly good. I’ve heard that people has actually been not liking the game because of the ads. And I totally understand that you guys can’t really work on that. But I actually have a very good hack if you would like to have no ads. But this reason is because you cannot revive if you do this. if you would like to do so please turn off your Internet. But although I used to play like every single day but today I wanted to start playing it again but it just felt like it was going up slower and I don’t know what the problem is but although everything is super fun and I love playing this game I just don’t understand how people can go over 100,000 score, and mine is only 40,000 thank you for reading my lovely review. I hope you can fix some bugs. Please answer with a developers response. Thank you, bye.

I love it
I do love this game, but it’s a little bit addicting so it can take over my life sometimes but it is really fun and it helps me figure out puzzles. It’s a good game but also a bad one. Attracts my mind to my phone which is not good for my eyesight, especially because I wear glasses, it’s only bad because too much screen time is too bad but other than that I love this game it’s actually really good. I would say three stars not too bad not too good but it is really addicting. That’s why it’s so fun to pay. thanks for making this whoever did, thank you to the people that did because I literally love this game. It’s so fun. It’s just a little bit addicting so you might wanna take the level and not it down a little bit but it is really fun so yeah if I was you I’d recommend paying this but please don’t get addicted because that’s what I didn’t. It’s just bad for your brain, but yeah, bye guys. I love this game and dying.

Fantastic - at first
This was the perfect game: the right balance of skill, luck, easy and more tricky levels. The ads were fine, short ones between levels and long ones if you wanted to revive. Then something happened. The ads took over so every time you won a level or revived you had to sit through >2 mins of advert. This took away any enjoyment of playing and became tedious and boring. Developers: I get why you have ads ,and short ads do work (it’s how I found the game after all). However long ones don’t. Nobody in their right mind wants to sit through two mins of a king getting squished again and again and again (it certainly doesn’t make me want to download that game). Please, please go back to short ads between levels and longer ones as the “cost” of reviving. You have a great game - don’t spoil it.

BLOCK BLASTT
Hello, I’m here to review about block blast today. You might be thinking, I don’t want this, or I don’t know if it’s worth it, but it totally is. It’s brain teasing and tricky at times, but to me, it’s not really! It’s just a fun game! Basically, the main goal is to beat your highest score! It’s alway achievable because you’ve set the goals, and no barrier is too high! You can play with friends on 2+ devices and try to beat their score too, if you beat yours easily! My highest score is around 35,000, but not exact and it’s just fun in general. So it also helps with ADHD and possibly autism, or other disorders or mental illnesses! It can rid of some stress, but in any circumstance, I highly recommend this game! Thank you so much developers for creating it and have a nice dayyy !!
2025-04-13
Unacceptable
Discriminatory. That is my one word to describe this game. I'll give it to you, Block Blast is a fun game and I enjoy playing it as you all probably do. So you'll understand why I'm so annoyed when I tell you that I can no longer download it onto my phone. I speak for all my parental restriction girlies when I say that this app rating is stopping me from enjoying the game we all love. So guess what the app rating is then. No its not a 0+ as it SHOULD BE. Go and have a look. It's a COMPLETELY UNNECESSARY 17+!!!! This insane rating is preventing me from downloading the app and quite frankly making me feel inferior and excluded. Sorry did I hear you mention mild nudity? MILD NUDITY? HUUUUUUH? Where in the chubby universe is there mild nudity in a puzzle game? Whoever rated this game is on something let me tell you that. And if you come back at me with "OoOh iT hAs EpIsOdE aDs!". No. Get out. How is that my problem? Here's a crazy idea - just remove the ads!!!! Crazy right? Even then, there's no nudity. I am looking round and I see no nudity for a trillion miles. If Block Blast is a 17+, then surely Toca Boca world is a 87+. Yeah. That's what I thought. So, let's assemble and sign the petition to make Block Blast a 0+ again!!!!!!
2025-03-02
Some parts gone
sometimes I wanna revive but it not there and also
Block Blast is a free puzzle game that combines elements of Tetris and traditional block puzzles. Players drag colored blocks onto an 8x8 grid, aiming to complete and clear rows or columns to score points. The game offers two modes: Classic Block Puzzle and Block Adventure Mode. In the Classic mode, players focus on fitting various block shapes onto the board to clear lines, while the Block Adventure Mode introduces challenges set in diverse environments, such as tropical rainforests, where players can encounter rare animals and collect items. 
The game has been praised for its simple yet addictive gameplay, which appeals to a wide range of players. However, some users have expressed concerns about the frequency and length of advertisements, noting that they can disrupt the gaming experience. Additionally, recent updates have introduced new features without clear explanations, leading to confusion among players. 
Overall, Block Blast offers an engaging puzzle experience with its blend of classic mechanics and new challenges. While the core gameplay is enjoyable, potential players should be aware of the prevalent ads and occasional lack of feature clarity.

It’s okay I guess
Ok Firstly, when download the game it is addicting for a couple hours or so,but when you are a week in ngl it is kinda boring for me bc we have to update it which does not change the game at all and idk why they update ig like. Also when you make a whole row it for some reason repeated those exact blocks repeatedly and makes it a whole lot easier but they needs to be a challenge. It says that this game keeps you entertained and all but really it keeps me bored which I don’t like. Personally, Hungry Studio needs to add more entertainment for that person who is playing the game. Y’all 17 year olds idk how u handle this game. Btw, I recommend Hungry games add this mode where we can compete with other people and race who finishes first. Overall this game it amazing
2025-02-15
CHALLENGES!!!
i feel like there’s more challenges needed in this game. completing the week long event things are really easy, i manage in a few days. i want a challenge like getting a certain amount of time for a certain amount of points. going again another player or team to get more points than the other in a certain amount of time. maybe make a leaderboard as well to see whose the best in the whole world who has this game. i play this game for hours and hours on end, i do love this game but theres more that can be added and i think a lot of us would like a challenge because it gets boring after while but i find myself always coming back to this game:) please consider adding more to the game.

LOVE IT BUT THERE IS ISSUES - COMPANY PLEASE READ
Right so I absolutely love this game and so does many people, as a high school student I go on the bus and I look around and all I see it's people playing block blast including me. I am playing on an I phone 11 and during the last few months there has been many changes to the game that are very noticeable e.g. the % counter at the top or how the blocks don't light up when they are going to disappear or how now when I start a new game it already has blocks on the board. I have talked to many people about this and every single one of them have said that they liked it the way it was a few months ago. I know that you probably won't even read this but if you do then please please consider changing the game back to how it was before because me and alot of other people have said that they have stopped playing the game so much because of these updates, if you aren't going to change it back then please consider letting players have a choice whether or not they have automatic updates for this game so if they don't want new versions then they don't have to have them. Thank you so much for your time reading this, I hope you will consider the points I have said. Thanks again,
Ivy Andrews

AWESOME
I’ve only just started this game. It’s so fun. You can choose to do adventure mode or timeless mode where you place blocks and try to get all of them to disappear for bonus points. It’s so much more better than Tetris or any other game that I’ve played I have been addicted to it to the point where I’ll be sat on the toilet in school playing it. I really do recommend this game for anybody who likes a good challenge and I wanna say big thank you to the people who made this game. You have did exceptionally well. And me and my friends love playing it all having competitions who has the highest score. but I think a good thing for the future is like a two player one where you can play with your friends and the first person who runs out of space loses or going up against people online and getting ranked up for example bronze silver gold and more this would be super cool, but for now you have did amazing.

new update.. yikes
basically this game is amazing, no wifi needed, addictive, fun etc. but. there was a random new update where it randomly puts blocks in before i placed any like in a new round? like once when it did that, i placed two blocks and i had no more room. it’s ridiculous because it just ruined the whole thing for me. also, there’s too many adds. if i fail, i can watch an add to revive but i don’t need an add after EVERY round which is very annoying. what’s also confusing is how some people get an option to switch their blocks yet me and i few people i know don’t? ALSO when i get like halfway to my high score i feel like it just tries to sabotage you and give you the worst blocks like it just takes the whole relaxing park out of it when it gives you blocks you physically can’t place.

⭐️ Why I voted 4 and not 5 ⭐️
Don’t get me wrong-I think block blast is a great game it’s fun, challenging, and great to play when you want to relax and chill. But there are a few things I think could be updated or improved such as…
•When you become pretty good at the game/good high score the game clearly doesn’t randomise the blocks and purposely put harder blocks so that it’s harder to win (I don’t mind a challenge but sometimes it’s a bit annoying)
•Secondly, sometimes the blocks go in places you don’t want them to (doesn’t happen very often but it does sometimes) and how it happens is when your dragging the block and you about to place it sometimes it almost stops mid-way and then goes into the section it’s stopped on.
So overall I think block blast is a great game but slightly overrated but I totally think if your wanting to relax and unwind you mind block blast is definitely a contender.
And for all the reasons above that is why I have related block blast a well deserved 4 ⭐️’s Thank you for reading my review xx

Devs pls read! ☆☻︎
So block blast is a very fun and addictive BUT 1) so recently almost all of my friends have a version of the game where there have a bronze silver and gold high score? I don’t have that and I’m so confused as to why I don’t have it and my friends are equally as confused why I don’t have it 2) some times for the past couple of days it starts me off with a lot of the space on the board all ready full and it is very hard to fill the up so I die with sometimes only a score of under 100 ( my high score is 20k)
3) ads!! If I die and it asks to watch an add I wait for the timer to go up and it just gives me an add anyway!
But over all it is very fun ♡︎✩

Block blast report
I believe that block blast should not be a 17+ and is a game for kids. I love this game and when it deleted it because you changed it to a 17+ I wasn’t very happy and was really sad and it was one of the games I loved to play but now I can’t cuz of your stupid idea to make it a 17+ game! Just why thought there’s no gambolling or any money on the line! There’s no reason to have it as a 17+ game! I hope you read this and change it back or you’ll be losing a follower or maybe a few ( my siblings) so I suppose you do something about cuz others may be complaining as well as me but I’m just plucking up the courage to protest to you about this. Thank you for your time. Xxx I hope you do something about this

this game is fun but there are a few things
This game is fun if you’re bored and have nothing to do, but the ads are quite annoying and always get in the way, and a lot of the ads seem very misleading.(those no wi-fi and free advert games)
The only thing i would want to change about this are the adverts, some of them can be 30 seconds long while others can be 15 seconds long.
A good feature to bring into the game would be block customisation, (and also background customisation) i think it makes the game seem more intriguing if you could buy and change the colour of your blocks/background using tokens you get rewarded with for finishing a level or clearing the whole block placing area :)

Only one tiny problem
I ❤️ block blast it is so satisfying and just I love it but I had one complaint and I a, so sorry to be really stingy but me like everyone else is complaining about adds but I mean for the last many years I have had an iPad I understand every now and then there will be a problem with adds and anyone willing to buy this game I am supporting you heavily as I recommend this app 110%
but you can do simple hacks such as well just switching the app off and then going back on
So yeah go for it and everyone below 17 would also be allowed to play I am 6 (5 this year ) years away from being and do I care no because no one is telling you off

Ads r so annoying
I love love love this game but its SOOO addicting which is sometimes good but also bad. I have introduced it to my family and friends because they have seen me playing and a lot of people tell me they had to delete as it was so addicting. Again sometimes it's a good thing but the thing I wanted to talk about is the excessive amount of ads theyre honestly so annoying. After every single game I revive cause if you don't revive, you'll get an ad and die but if you do you'll watch an ad and carry on playing which just makes more sense to me. One issue I had a couple times is when it was almost full and only a couple small blocks could actually fit, it gave me 2 3x3 squares and a 5- block line so I had absolutely no chance of even placing a block! Anyway that's it bye!!

ADS ready to sue for false advertisement
Mobile Application
This review serves to express significant dissatisfaction with the mobile application, Block Blast. While the core gameplay concept of block-matching may hold initial appeal, the app's functionality is severely compromised by an overwhelming and persistent barrage of advertisements.
The frequency and duration of these advertisements are egregious, interrupting gameplay at almost every turn. This constant disruption not only disrupts the flow and enjoyment of the game but also significantly diminishes the overall user experience.
Furthermore, the nature of these advertisements often appears inappropriate for a general audience. The inclusion of such content within a game that could potentially be accessed by younger users raises serious concerns regarding the app's suitability for all age groups.
In conclusion, the excessive and intrusive advertising within Block Blast renders it an unsatisfactory and ultimately frustrating gaming experience. I strongly advise potential users to exercise caution and consider alternative, less disruptive gaming options.

Good Game but too many updates and ads
I downloaded this game about 2 months ago, and when I first downloaded it, it was PERFECT… just a simple block game that was super addictive and fun to play … but the ads, it’s normally alright with ads if your good at the game because you basically get 2 goes before an ad… but if your bad at the game it’s quite hard. UPDATES: like i said at the beginning it was so fun and simple but after the updates they’ve made it too hard, like at the beginning it’s all jumbled up and hard to get past all of the messy blocks and sometimes it’s hard to get past a score over 100. But overall the only good update was the percentage at the top of how close you are to beating your score, although I think I am a bit picked😅good game!

????
Do I had block blast for a few months and it was great. It was rlly fun and nice to play. But then it told me to update so I did it and it became a 17+????!!?!!?!! Like what?? There is nothing wrong with it and I don’t understand why it’s 17+ on iPhone (cuz it’s not 17+ on anything else, just iphone)This rlly annoys me cuz even tho I’m 14 I still have parental controls and it doesn’t let me have apps that are above my age. This is rlly annoying cuz my parents are not allowing it cuz they think it’s a rlly horrible game and are going round telling all my friends parents not to get it cuz it’s rlly bad. Pls pls plssss fix this as its getting very frustrating and annoying. Thank you
(P.s the only reason I put 5 starts was so that people can see this)

SO GOOD AND ADDICTIVE BUT THERE ARE A FEW THINGS
i got this game and it’s actually so fun and i don’t really do anything in my free time so i get bored a lot. but i saw this game on an add and lots of people i know have downloaded it and loved it so i decided to get it. sometimes i’ll just want to do a quick game but i’ll spend another 30 minutes or more just trying to beat my score. the adds aren’t really that bad at all. they aren’t too long except the adds to revive yourself which you don’t really need to do unless you’ve got a really good score. honestly the worst part of this game is when you have a decent score the game seems to be purposely giving you blocks that wouldn’t fit. sometimes after reviving your self it would still give you large blocks that would obviously not fit. but overall it’s not enough to take one star off because this game is actually really good. i love it

The game is good but the ads
This game can be a great time alone or competing in a battle for a new high score or the best score and getting a new high score is always satisfying. But the
ADS
They are constant when you lose a game it first tempts you into playing an ad for a second and 3rd chance but it doesn’t matter because you are going to watch an ad or two anyway. And speaking of losing the game makes you lose this is not a game of skill or luck it is biased on how long the game wants you to play I got a high score of 5000 then the rest of the games I played I barely got 1000 so the more you play the game and the better score you get out of your control you always seem to lose earlier than before. So as a conclusion I do NOT recommend playing this game because when you change your and watching and vendors off the game doesn’t listen and makes you watch the same ads over and over again even though you blocked them from playing their ads.

I can’t play.
I updated block blast and ever since I haven’t been able to play,though it’s a great game some blocks may get out of hand ,and,like I said, I can’t open it I think it might be a bug or glitch but I wish it worked because of how good it is I would recommend playing. If you want to learn something and get a game we’re you have to think,this is the game, it has strategy so you have to be very strategic when placing some blocks you have a high score so it never ends, overall it’s a great game and idea. You can add some other features,I thought of one, being, you can add a battle mode were,like TicTackToe you can make it so its two player, so one person would place a block,then the next, the aim is to make the other person run out of goes. Hope this helps! Good job!

Somehow it can stitch you up and there is nothing you can do
This game is fun and good with no wifi. However it is able to make it so that there is nothing you can do. I think that this is unreasonable as then there is no way to beat your high score. Surely there should always be a way to carry on? Anyways I love this game but think that it should not be allowed to do that and there should always be something you can do. I recommend this app although it is very aggravating and annoying. Sorry I needed to rant. Also, I think there should be a redo button if you misplace it, it happens ALOT. I misplaced it because someone jogged me and I lost my high score :(. overall, It’s a really good game and for the people complaining about the adds, turn of data and wifi, it doesn’t need it !!

Awesome game but one issue that I don’t understand
I downloaded this game roughly two to three months ago and it’s absolutely fantastic, one of the best pass time games. Recently however the age rating of this app on iOS has been raised from 4+ to 17+ which I don’t really understand (but it’s not my decision do what you want with your game) unfortunately my phone does not allow downloads of apps over 14ish. Since I had already downloaded the game before this update it has just blocked me from playing my favourite game. I understand that this is a me problem but if there was any way of fixing this, I would appreciate it whether it’s to do with the age rating being changed or my own settings. Nevertheless this is still one of the best games I’ve played and if you don’t have settings like mine I would highly recommend it !!

Fun game but the ads are annoying!
I love this game! It is so fun and addictive but so simple and easy to play!! I dont have anything I have to say bad about this game but there is one problem: adverts. I love this game but I wish there were adverts only after a few games (3/4) instead of one every single round!! Yes I understand the ads if you want to revive but if you don’t want to revive and watch an add you just want to go play another game of block blast you wouldn’t want to decline the revive and then have to watch an add after that!! It just doesn’t make any sense. I get they have to promote other games or apps to make money but why is it after EVERY ROUND!! It’s annoying! Please change this block blast!!
Overall this is a great game and I totally agree that you should get this!!

Block Blast!
This game is so fun and relaxing, and great to wind down before bedtime, I let my little one play this game before bed and when he woke up in the morning, he said he had the bed sleep ever, and he said it was because of that really fun game you let me play before bed last night, and he loved it. I, as a 24 year old adult, really enjoy this game the same as my 6 year old son. It is a game where you can merge blocks to get a higher score, but when there is no space left for the block that you need to put in, you lose. But this game sets a high score for your highest amount of merges, and it tempts you to play again, and again, until you beat your high score. Download this game, you are really missing out!

mid
after this last update, they introduced a weird starting phase with half of the board already filled with blocks. they’ve made it way harder than before, before you had to really think about where the blocks go, however now they just end your game with no option and really goes against the motto of improving your brain, it’s just an addicting game that doesn’t let you progress further than 4k. I would know because before i could get to 10k and more with relative ease, however now it’s impossible to even reach 7k, and nowhere close to reaching my 30k high score. it’s genuinely sad seeing such a popular game just update and make it impossible, you have to have a clear board with no blocks to progress or else it will give you a 3x3 or some awkward piece that will not fit at all. scummy game with scummy practices so kids watch ads and earn them more money. 😒

it’s addictive but ads…
I really didn’t think i’d like this game but it is soo addictive. I literally play it at least once a day now. I started playing it when i saw literally all of my friends and people around me playing it and ever since i’ve been hooked. It’s so simple yet so fun, and I can easily play on the way back from school, work, on the plane etc.
My only problem is the excessive ads. You get an option to revive with an ad once you run out of space to place the required blocks, which i understand fully, as they need to make money somehow and it provides a reward, even to play again after you’ve declined the ad you’re faced with another ad!!! It’s not even after a few rounds, it’s after every single round which typically last only a couple of minutes once you’re a beginner at the game. What’s the point giving you the option to decline reviving with an ad?? You might as well just revive yourself if you’re bound to watch an ad anyways! I’ve found myself having to turn off wifi and mobile data to use this app without being pestered by ads, but now i don’t receive any of my notifications whilst playing, which is annoying and inconvenient.
Overall a simple but great game (especially since it’s free), but it’s slightly ruined by ads.

BEST GAME EVER!!!!!
THIS GAME IS BETTER THAN ELDEN RING!!! SHOULD WIN 2024 GAME AWARDS!! On a more serious note, my life was going downhill a few years ago, my mother died, my wife left me, I had lost my house. It was then I saw an ad for block blast. I decided to download it, in the time since I have experienced pure joy every day of my life thanks to this game. It is wonderfully designed and it’s simple brilliance won me over. Playing this game lead the bank to return my house, my wife to come back, and my mother to resurrect. I recently was fired from my job and I will not get another one, I will become a professional block blast player even if I must lose everything else in my life to do so. I will never stop loving block blast, Thank you you changed my life. Thank you block blast Bloc

BEST GAME
this game is the pride and joy of my life without this game I don’t know if I would even still be here. This game is the milk to my shake, the lemon to my lime, the Colin to my caterpillar and the diaries to my vampires. It makes me want to get out of bed in the morning it sincerely keeps me going in life I recommend everybody needs this game bc it really is a life saver the only down thing about it would be the adds as there can be so many but other then that this game is the best game anyone has ever made and I don’t think it can ever be replaced. If block blast has 100 fans im there. If block blast has 10 fans im there. If block blast has one fan I’m there. I f block blast has 0 fans I’m dead. It’s my life, my world, my baby. I really couldn’t live without my baby. It’s the first thing I think of when I wake up. When I go to sleep. I love block blast. I live block blast. I breathe block blast. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Found a glitch on classic mode
Okay so btw this game is pretty good obvious Tetris knockoff but pretty fun
The glitch (btw I’m doing this on iPhone)
Fail in the game and whenever the five second timer comes up to refresh the app, now go back in and before the blocks clear grab a block, when they do clear place it down and quickly refresh the app again, when you load back in onto a new game the block will stay and you will have the points as if you just refreshed them.
This happens because when they clear the blocks it’s not just for show but because you always use the same board to play so if you place after they are cleared the game doesn’t check, I assume you could do cool stuff with this information but I’m not gonna try, if block blast wants to contact me I have a video I also have no idea if they have my email or not but reply to the review if you don’t.
Ps:I’m not updated to the most recent version of block blast so this might have been resolved, also I gave it five stars so it would be easier to find in the reviews

someone help
i download this game as it was all the hype, the youngsters were playing it and it reminded of that one game (brain crushers). so i wanted to see what it was all about, to then find out it would change my life forever!!!!! it started as a simple play through but then it got worse and worse to the point where i had to play it all the time. my teacher asked what i was doing and told him i was playing block blast, he then sent me to the heads office but i refused and showed him my alpha side and the whole class was absolutely terrified, they quivered in fear of my block blast high score. i then got expelled and was forced to life a life of solitude. this is 10 years later and i still cant stop playing this game!!! its the brainrot final boss, DO NOT DOWNLOAD!!?
2024-09-01
Amazing!
I’ve seen so many advertisements and sponsors for Block blast, and I never thought it would be as good as they say. However, I greatly enjoy it, I don’t know why. Most mobile games have adds, whether you die or not, but Block blast only has occasional adds, that don’t interrupt your gameplay unless you die, which of course can be prevented. Any adds that are played can be easily skipped after 5 seconds.
As for the gameplay, it is very fun, and got me addicted after my first few matches. It is satisfying, I personally love the sound effects. It of course does have a challenging puzzle aspect, which is a great thing.
I would highly recommend Block Blast

Book blast
It is the most beautiful place on earth that has a great atmosphere to explore the city in its most popular city of New Hampshire with the highest amount to be explored by visitors from around town to see and experience all over again for more information and information and information from our community to the town of Grand Central New Jersey in a very beautiful and wonderful location that I have visited many of our parks throughout our history as we were living here at home for many decades I would say it would take us many times longer for to find it but we have been able in a very different time than it would to get here and to see a little while back

block blast is such a fun game, it is super addicting and i definitely recommend it. I play it for hours a day and I'm not bored because of the unlimited puzzles you can do in this fantastic but yet so simple game. Its a most play and is the best game you can download, it is even offline! what else would you ask for. The game doesn't require a lot of skill as i know someone who already got a high score of 6,000 after downloading it 2 days ago. Once you start playing you won’t want to stop because this game is absolutely perfect. It gets challenging and that is what i love about it. Overall this game is great and by far the best you can get for free. Keep it up block blast creators and maybe add a 2 player mode where you take in turns. But theres a lot of ads. Pat

SO SO FUN but the adds lied
I LITERALLY LOVE THIS GAME IT IS SO ADDICTIVE and so fun to play I play whenever I free time and honestly think it’s made me smarter. After me saying this you are probably wondering why I only gave it 4 stars and the truth is I really didn’t want to because it’s SUCH a good game but I felt I really had to since after seeing and advert for it saying it had 0 adds this made me really angry since it practically has an add after every round you play witch is fine. (The owner doesn’t need to lie about this) it also showed another game a bit like Tetris but that game does not exist only the one that you will she when you scroll down to the photos. If the created of the game is reading this please change the advert because I love this game so much and that kinda ruins it. But apart from that I LOVE this game and it is definitely a family addiction even my parents like it. So it is definitely suitable for all ages. Overall get this game it is great if I could old give it a 4.5 stars I would

Colours are colourful
After playing this game for the past few months now, I have become up to date with the importance of colour. Without colour, it would be very hard to distinguish between things such as sports teams and foods. For example, Skittles. How would you know which one you are eating? For me this is mind boggling, and not just for the obvious reasons, but rather how the mind works. For me, my brain can alter opinions based on something’s colour, and therefore without colour my mind has no opinions on anything - unless I eat it. So overall, the game is helping my vast autism and social anxiety. If you are looking for a game to stop any withdrawal symptoms, then Blockblast is the one for you.

Really good!
I love to play block blast in my free time and pretty much whenever I can! I find it sooo addicting though so y oh have been warned!! Haha! Anyway , you can play block blast on a train, car, pretty much anywhere! Me and my mum play this game and see who can get a higher score! Every time you play, you try to get a new high score every time. When you open block blast, you decide if you want to play a classic round or an adventure. Adventure is when you have to try and get a certain score or you have to get the right amount of diamonds. With the ads, you don’t have many unless you choose for a revive or sometimes after you finish a game. There are barely any ads at all that makes this game 10 times better!
Keep this up guys ! Love your game and I highly recommend this game to anyone who doesn’t have it yet!

My Review
This game is pretty good! It’s great how they used the idea of Tetris, and changed it up just slightly to get a new concept. It’s not too addictive where I’m on it all evening, but not too boring where I do 1 level and quit. I haven’t played too much to the game to see and forced ads yet, (hopefully there aren’t any), and I haven’t seen the ads of the game, so I don’t know what they show. There has been a recurring theme in some of the lower reviews saying that the game isn’t like their ads. But, like I said, I didn’t see the ads, I got it off of the App Store. Another recurring theme of lower reviews are how the ads shown aren’t related to the game. This happens a lot in mobile games and is not uncommon. For example, I was playing a separate game about survival and when I watched ads, it was a Shien ad. Overall, good game, good concept, good work!

Free but 80% adverts
Not a bad little time waster of a game for the first 10 minutes. You can turn off the annoying music and sound and it whiles away a few enjoyable minutes.. But then the adverts start and they’re relentless! You finish a level - an advert - you fail a level - an advert - you try and change the game? An advert.. Now I get that this is funded by adverts but each advert can be way longer than the actual playing experience and the ‘close’ clicks are smaller than any you’ll find on the regular internet and then, just to cap it all off - the music is back and now it’s compulsory!! Yep - every advert (so every other button press) the advert appears and off we go with whatever banal soundtrack is for that and the only way to silence it it to silence your phone?! Sure there and the teeny, tiny ‘mute’ buttons but invariably the click detection is so bad (I’d say intentionally!) that you’ll find yourself in the App Store in no time with the ‘Click Here to Install’ message front and centre! It’s a shame - like I said a great little time waster completely ruined by greedy clickbait. Avoid unless you have the patience of a saint or the click to close / silence accuracy of Apollo himself..

needs bug fix!!!
first of all the ads don’t match the actual game on this app. i still enjoy the apps game though but ads are misleading. I’ve been playing this game for so long and it’s such a nice convenient game to have i love playing it to pass time when i’m at school but there’s a bug on the other games option. there’s another game inside it as well. if you press the gear in the top right corner and then press more games youll find it. the bug is that some blocks display that they’re there when they’re not and sometimes a row will be full and should break but it stays there because it’s not full but it’s just displaying it is. this gets super annoying because it makes the game increasingly harder and annoying for something you can’t even control. fix this please. apart from this i love it.

Adverts for your game are completely incorrect
I downloaded the game because an advert for it popped up when I was playing something else. Your advert gives the impression that it is basically a Tetris style game, with blocks that drop from the top and lines need to be cleared so you don't touch the top line. The only similarity to that, is the shape of the blocks you use. Make an advert for YOUR game! It bugs me so much when you think your getting one game and get something completely different. Does it mean that you don't have confidence in your own game and thats why you need to use another game’s concept to attract people?
Your game is actually ok! I have the same game already, made by people that advertised it to actually show what you would be playing. Ill keep the other one and ditch this one.
Advertise it properly with your actual game in your ads.

AD FARM AND DATA COLLECTION.
Game clearly designed to farm advertisements and data from users for revenue. Before you play the game you’ll be asked for cookie permissions but if you’re not bothered by your information being shared then clicking accept all is fine. If you’re someone that is cautious about sharing your data, you’ll find that this app sells your data to 100+ companies which you have to click through each and every one of them to toggle off your interest so that they can’t collect anything from you.
If you primarily play the classic mode, it’s rigged in way if you get to around 1700 points they will purposefully give you 1 one 2 blocks that you can place, but they’ll be ones that will fit but won’t allow you to clear a section. After that you’ll get a pop up asking you if you want to revive yourself. In turn clicking this greets you with an ad.
While not surprising, you’ll only be able to place a couple blocks afterwards and gain 100 or 200 points before you’re hit with the same revival message and an ad.
However if you’re lucky, and can score higher than the 1700 points without getting the ad you’ll be automatically failed when you reach 2800 or higher. Just like before, you’ll be given blocks you can place but won’t help you out in any meaningful way.
Like most other apps, this is just a simplistic and rigged game that probably took an hour to make and has probably made more money that they can imagine farming ads and selling your data
2024-01-07
kinda good but the ads are a big no no
I love this game and all but the ads seem to always get in the way!! It’s also really annoying because the better score you have, the more the game tries to eliminate you. You can tell the blocks aren’t randomised at all and are being put purposely. A way that u guys can avoid the ads is by playing on aeroplane mode. The first time an ad is due, it may not work but it always works in the end! Overall I’d give this game a 3 because these problems are way to overlooked and ignored.
Update:
The revive is also a waste because your gonna get an ad either way so there’s really no point. Also when you do the adventure mini game thingy and you have to restart cuz u run out of space, it just gives you the same blocks again!? It’s like it wants us to fail. This game has so much potential but it’s just being knocked down by these minor issues which could quite easily be solved if they bothered with it.

Ads override phone silent settings
I like the game. I'd give the game 4 stars. But there is no paid option - which I would pay for - and there are a LOT of ads. Every time you start a new round or refresh one that you've lost, there's an ad. Annoying enough, but the developers have found a way to make the ads override the sound settings on the phone.
The volume on my phone is all the way down. The volume toggle on the side is set to silent. Focus is set to sleep. And I've turned the sound option off from notifications for the app. None of it matters - ads will override whatever setting you have on the phone for sound. Not every ad does it but Royal Match ones do and they are about 90% of the ads.
There is a mute option on some of the individual ads, but you can't set that as a default. So if you like to play games while listening to content on your phone, expect for it to be overridden every couple of minutes and to have to switch in and out of your other app to restart whatever you were listening to.
So if you not a fan of this type of insidious encroachment on your device and apps overstepping their bounds, it's best avoided. Frankly it's self defeating because it's quicker to close the game and reopen it than it is to watch a noisy ad so I'm not sure who's even watching them for more than 0.5 of a second anyway.
