FAQ:Should I play this game?
- If you’re into building games, yes :) It's free and hopefully good; why not give it a try?What's it about?
- Building awesome towers and (optionally) showing them to the world. You can impress others with your building skills and/or decoration finesse.Is this game similar to some others in the store?
- Not to my knowledge. I think it's a fairly new concept. I’ve combined physics with magic, huge worlds, and freedom in building choices plus a rewarding gameplay.What are the permissions for?
- The game needs access to local storage for storing gameplay data and screenshots. Network access is required for showing you some ads (not too many I hope) and gaining some completely anonymized data (points where people get stuck and so on...). You can simply turn off the network connection and still play the game without ads and data collection if you want (please don't). The billing permission is used for in-app purchases.Is this Pay2Win?
- Definitely not. You can choose to buy the ads away, unlock all worlds without having to reach a certain point limit first and buy an unlimited deco-item and color pack (you can also choose to watch videos to get some decoration items).
LAST REMARK:I'm a single independent developer and therefore I can always use some help marketing my game :)

Very enjoyable and somewhat challenging, and ultimately satisfying.
Its really one of the most addictive games that isnt a puzzle game that i can find. Its is great
Great game and graphics. I've reinstalled and played this a few times. (:
I thank you for this update and i love homestuck and this good game.
very nice and great game but not easy for children❤️
Beautiful and very uniquely engaging
Played years ago on micromax a50, finally searced it, "black brick tower making".
Love this building game
You know, humans invented speach already. How about using words to explain things?
It'll kick you in the dick.
i have a singular complaint. The black background on the later levels make it impossible to see the black blocks. edit: three years later im still playing this game Haha ive reset and started over hundreds of times. it's just so relaxing but challenging at the same time. the little floating obstacles are the perfect balance by being an interesting challenge without ruining my tower
2/27/22 : still deliciously fun! Thank you. Having every single item available, accessible, and with an unlimited supply allows for total artistic freedom within the setting of this game. This phenomenon is rare : this game has it. It is easy to understand and even screenshots have an in-game editor. The only frustration is not enough save slots for large 'portfolios'.
One of the most entertaining games on mobile. I have played this game for a long time and it used to be okay but a little repetitive. The new challenge mode, however, really pushes you to create fun crazy looking towers that our straight out of childhood. Only issue: please fix the bug with roofs disappearing from block list when you place and then delete them. This required resetting the level to get out of the stuck game state. Otherwise, phenomenal game. Hopefully you can continue it!
Great app Update: the blocks arent unlimited anymore so I hate it now :/ 2cd Update: not what im used to but it'll do
I love this game! Very entertaining, creative. And definitely worth the purchase for unlimited deco items and no ads. Update- just got the 3rd phone I upgraded to since I first played this game, and the 3rd phone I have downloaded this game onto!
love it😄😊
It's cute and not too hard - you can try again a level without punishment. I really like the design.
If you were trying to get to homestuck fans with the name egbert, then you sure succeded
I like how the tower can tilt after each section and then trying to figure out how to build on that. I saw another comment about a free play mode and I second that idea. My structures tend to be a bit boring bc I'm working more on making them stable to get the points than to look cool.
I don't get the lag many ppl describe. My droid turbo handles it like a champ, but after about 15 minutes, the phone case itself gets uncomfortable to hold. That can't be good for my device, so I have to put this game on hold. This is the sort of thing that could make an awesome PC game if expanded.
It seems like when you get to a certain point the game starts to lag so much that it becomes unplayable. The zoom-in function also needs work, as the inverted-pinch thing only zooms it in the tiniest bit. It was taking like ten minutes just to scroll up and zoom to the point where I built up to. Also- for anyone who can't handle the excessive bouncing, I've noticed that the bouncing happens more if you use the undo function, so try deleting bricks manually instead :)
Entertaining and extremely re-playable. It definitely taps into your inner perfectionist. The game is easy to learn. The graphics and music are stylish. Priced well enough that it doesn't feel like a waste if you decide to buy, and you aren't bombarded with micro-transactions about bonuses or power-ups, etc. A drain on the memory & battery of older devices. Tends to heat them up a bit, but to be expected with the mechanics of the game. I recommend it.
For what it is, its great. I like the concept. The graphics are nice and the dark feel of the theme are enjoyable. I like the music too. Good job on the game. Issues: i paid for all unlocks and had to reset my device. Now im only seeing the desert world unlocked. Also, the floating base blocks are entirely too free form in where they can be placed. The rest of the blocks are very strict in terms of where they can be placed. The "floaters" are all but impossible to get lined up. Still fun though.
I really like the game, but (this is to the developers or developer) could add an eraser tool (or make an option of the two choices like tapping or eraser tool in settings) instead of just tapping to get rid of something? Cause when I try to place blocks down in tight spaces it'll erase a foundation block or something else and then I'll go into a panic and forget about the undo button and end up destroying everything. Thanks! :)
Very interesting, unique physics game. Unfortunately it suffers from a few things are making it impossible for me to progress. First, with enough blocks, the game starts lagging very badly (Nexus 5). Second, there is no incentive to use less blocks (other than less lag I guess). Third, when placing the grey blocks, they don't always stay in place and wiggle out of their spaces while still building.
I don't know why I like this kooky game its quite difficult to build what you want slow and frustrating but I just can't help stacking one brick on top of the other it is hard and you need patience. But it is v.annoying that the terrain isn't level & selection of bricks is awful you don't get enuf briks to build what's in the screenies.
I started playing and once I caught on it was fun...Until the lag started. It first got bad during the larger builds but soon it was all the time. I could not zoom in while a map was reloading. It would force me to fully zoom out and then I would have to spend extra time zooming back in. So frustrating. I like the game but if the lag keeps up I will have to delete the game.
I find this game is really entertaining my favorite part is that the forced roof will not renew so you can delete them.
