Pixel Blow Up

Tap a card. A crew pours out, runs to every keg of its own color, and lights the fuse. Then you pick the next color. That is the whole game — and it gets hard fast. A one-handed color puzzle about taking a board apart, one color at a time. 140 levels, no ads, no in-app purchases. THE DEMOLITION YARD The board is stacked with colored barrels. Tap a card and that crew runs out carrying matches, walks to every barrel of its own color, and lights them one after another. HOW IT PLAYS Every card in your tray is one crew: a color, and a number that says how many blocks that crew will work through. Tap a card and it drops into an open slot. From there they do the walking. The catch is that they can only walk in from outside the board. A color that is walled in on every side is out of reach, so you peel the rim first and the middle opens up as you go. Choosing which color to open, and when, is the entire puzzle. Slots are the bottleneck. A level hands you five, four or three of them, and a crew holds its slot until its last worker is done — so filling every slot with colors that have nothing left to reach leaves you stuck. When that happens you can spend a recall to send one starving crew home and get its slot straight back. Only the hardest levels carry a clock — 37 of the 140, each with its own limit set from a measured clear rather than a flat budget. It counts down, turns red for the last minute, and runs on game time, so speeding them up buys you no extra room. The other 103 have no clock at all. Most levels take one to three minutes. WHAT YOU GET - 140 levels, each one machine-checked to be solvable before it ships - 108 pieces of loot to collect on your pantry shelf: a cow, a pineapple, a strawberry, a watermelon, a red apple, a monkey - A global leaderboard — all time, this week, today — ranked by levels cleared, with no sign-up - 3 upgrades — quicker workers and busier crews — opened by clearing levels, never bought - Three one-shot boosters, paid for with coins you earn by clearing levels - Two original tracks that swap themselves in and out as you play - Color-blind marks, plus sound, music and vibration switches - English, Chinese and Portuguese NO STRINGS - No ads. Not one. - No in-app purchases. There is nothing here you can spend real money on — coins are earned by clearing levels, and the numbers on the upgrade screen are thresholds, not prices. - No account and no sign-in. The leaderboard carries a nickname you pick and how many levels you have cleared, nothing else. - No energy bar, no lives, no daily streak waiting to punish you for missing a day. - Plays offline. Every level ships inside the app. - One optional reminder a day, at most, and only if you ask for it. WHO IT IS FOR If you like watching a good plan run itself more than you like fast fingers, this game is built for you. One tap, portrait, one hand, no precision and no reflexes. Pick a color. Send the crew. Watch the board come apart.
