## Description

Other block puzzles clear a line. Voltline detonates the whole board. Match a full line to one color and chain-lightning surges across the grid. Free. No timer. No ads.

Fill a line. Match the color. Watch the whole board surge.

Voltline is a neon block puzzle built on the satisfying loop you already love — drag pieces onto an 8×8 grid, fill a full row or column to clear it — with one electric twist no other block puzzle has: the Surge.

THE SURGE — the spark that changes everything
Clear an ordinary mixed-color line and it simply vanishes. But clear a line where all eight blocks are the SAME color, and it doesn't just clear — it discharges. Chain-lightning floods outward, detonating every same-color block connected to it, neighbor after neighbor, rippling across the entire board. One perfectly placed line can blow up a third of the grid for a single huge combo. Clear the whole board at once and trigger a BLACKOUT.

HOW TO PLAY
- Drag three pieces from the tray onto the grid — no rotation, no rush.
- Complete any full row or column to clear it.
- Stuck with an awkward shape? Bank it in the Hold slot for later.
- Herd one color into a big connected cluster, then set it off with a single-color line to chain-detonate it all.
- No timer. No ticking clock. Play one quick move or lose an hour — it's up to you.

EASY TO LEARN, DEEP TO MASTER
Anyone gets it in five seconds: fit the pieces, clear the lines. But masters play a second game on top — routing colors into one connected blob, then firing a monochrome line to chain it across the board. A fat single-color cluster scores enormous… but it also eats space and can trap you. Every placement is a tug-of-war between surviving and setting up the perfect surge.

MODES
- Endless — the survival high-score loop with build-and-keep streak multipliers.
- Daily Surge — one seeded puzzle a day, identical for everyone. Compete on the global leaderboard.
- Blitz — a frantic 90-second race; every clear buys you more time.
- Zen — no game-over, with undo. Pure, relaxing surges whenever you want.

Most block puzzles end at the line clear. Voltline is where it begins.
