Dodge The Blocks

Scoot. Hop. Dodge!

You're Blocky, a little white cube on a floating island. Angry red blocks slide in from every side. How many seconds can you last?

How it plays.

  1. Scoot.

    Drag anywhere to steer Blocky around his island. Got a keyboard? Arrow keys or WASD steer, and the space bar hops.

  2. Hop.

    Tap to hop over the low blocks. Pillars and giants are too tall to hop, so go around those.

  3. Dodge.

    Red blocks slide in from every side, and a red arrow blinks where each one will come in. Your score is how many seconds you last.

Coins pop up all over the island. Let a block scrape right past you, or hop clean over one, and it's a close call: a bonus coin. Bonked? Once a run, you can keep going for 150 coins or an optional video.

New blocks keep coming.

The longer you last, the faster they come, and new kinds join in.

  • From the start

    Cubes

    Low enough to hop. One at a time at first, then in pairs.

  • After 20 seconds

    Pillars

    Too tall to hop. Go around.

  • After 30 seconds

    Rollers

    They tumble end over end.

  • After 40 seconds

    Walls

    A whole row of blocks, with one gap.

  • After 50 seconds

    Droppers

    They fall out of the sky, aimed at you. A shrinking red ring shows where.

  • After 65 seconds

    Giants

    Twice as wide, and too tall to hop.

  • After 80 seconds

    All four sides

    Blocks from every side at once, lined up on you. Hop or move, now.

Grab a power-up.

Power-ups float in bubbles on the island. Grab one before it blinks out.

  • Shield

    A bubble that takes one hit for you.

  • Magnet

    Pulls nearby coins your way.

  • Slow-mo

    The blocks slow down, and so does the music.

  • Star Power

    Smash through blocks. Each one pays 2 coins.

  • Mini

    Blocky shrinks to half size and slips through tight spots.

Spend coins in the Shop.

You start as plain white Blocky in the Meadow. Every item has a fixed price, and you can earn all of it by playing. After a run, an optional video doubles the coins you earned.

Skins

70 looks to buy, plus three more in Daily Gifts.
