Play Monster Blocks free online — a puzzle game that loads straight into the page. The core of it is puzzle and block & tetris-like. Everything runs client-side, so it starts fast even on a modest connection.

About Monster Blocks

Monster Blocks is a mix between all these puzzle games. You control falling blocks almost in the same way as in Tetris, but your task is not to fill rows. Instead you have to connect 3 or more blocks of the same color to complete a match.

How to play Monster Blocks

The opening minute doubles as the tutorial. The full control mapping is in the table below and takes a moment to skim. The game runs in portrait, so on a phone you can play one-handed, and on desktop it stays centred rather than stretched out of shape. Restarting is instant, so there is no cost to experimenting.

Why it is worth playing
