How to play Shooting Block
You can work the whole thing out by playing it. The controls are listed in full in the table below — there are only a handful of them. The game is wide rather than tall — fullscreen is worth it on a monitor, and on a phone the picture is much better sideways. The second run is always better than the first — that is the whole learning curve.

Why it is worth playing
What makes Shooting Block stick is that failure is informative. You can usually name the mistake, and that is what makes another attempt tempting. It is not trying to be anything larger, and it is better for it.
