POPPY: Balance Block Puzzle

Stack, match, and find your balance. POPPY is a seesaw block puzzle created by a 16-year-old solo developer.

Light wood, heavy gold, and floating balloons—every piece changes the balance. Plan your next move, clear matching blocks, and keep your stack from toppling!

■ Simple controls, thoughtful moves Tap to drop a block, or drag left and right and release. Connect three or more blocks of the same material vertically, horizontally, or in an L shape to clear them. Watch the next three pieces and balance the weight on both sides.

■ Build your score with all-clears and combos Clear the entire board to increase your base multiplier for the rest of that game. Keep clearing within four moves to build a combo and earn more points. Four moves without a clear reset your combo bonus, but your all-clear multiplier stays.

Large groups, simultaneous clears, chain reactions, and balance recoveries offer more scoring opportunities. Marked multiplier blocks appear as you progress.

■ Take on occasional challenges Clear a row, match a group of a particular material, trigger a chain reaction, and more. Complete a challenge for bonus points. If time runs out, your game continues without a penalty.

■ Normal play and weekly competition Chase your personal best and climb the normal leaderboard. For a fresh competition, enter weekly play from the home screen. The weekly top three earn animal icons and profile frames, including an owl, a sleepy black rabbit, and a star-holding fox! Weekly scores reset every Monday at 12:00 a.m. Japan Standard Time.

■ Invite friends and collect block designs Code entry is for new players before they finish their third normal game. Choose Have an invite code? on Home to enter a code. When your friend registers your code and completes three normal games in total, both of you receive a Halloween block reward.

Collect eight designs, including a candy basket, a frozen pumpkin, a lantern, and a moonlit window. The first seven arrive in a random order without duplicates. The golden pumpkin comes last! Collect your rewards from the mailbox.

■ Customize each material Keep the classic wood block and use a pumpkin for copper—or choose your own combination. Select a design separately for each material. Designs change appearance only, with no changes to weight or matching rules. Earned Halloween designs remain available after the season ends.

■ Learn by playing Practice the controls and special blocks in an interactive tutorial. Practice does not affect your real scores. Save your progress and continue an unfinished game later.
