About Wood Tower
Build the tallest tower out of wooden blocks
How to play Wood Tower
Press play and the first round teaches you the rest. On desktop the arrow keys / WASD do the moving; the full mapping is in the table below. Portrait layout: hold the phone the way you normally do, or play it centred in the page on desktop. Expect the first attempt to be a write-off; that is normal here.
Controls
| Input | Action |
|---|---|
| Mouse | Navigate menus and interact |
| Arrow keys / WASD | Move |
| Spacebar | Primary action |
On mobile: Tap and swipe directly on the screen. The game is built for portrait, so you can play one-handed without rotating your phone.
Why it is worth playing
The appeal here is the loop: a short round, a clear result, and an obvious idea about what to do differently next time. Nothing about it assumes you have played it before.
