Blocktactic is a mashup of match-three and tactical score attack and it works out surprisingly well.

Blocktactic is a surprising hidden gem that combines match-three with score attack mechanics for a challenging and fun time.

Chase for high scores. Blocktactic is a match-three that involves tactical planning to get high scores. You need to get those high scores to unlock more block sets, which are purely cosmetic and just for fun.

Rack up combos. If you can manage to rack up consecutive matches, it becomes a combo and you earn bonus points.

Unique gameplay. Blocktactic may be a match-three game, but it requires strategy and planning to get those high scores. The game's simple controls make it easy for anyone to pick this up and play, but it takes tactical planning to get those high scores.

What is it about?

Visually, Blocktactic is full of retro charm. The pixelated 16-bit graphics are rendered in 2D and are complete with low frame rates that you'd expect from old-school games. Blocktactic is full of bright and vivid colors that are eye-catching, and the various game blocks that it uses on the board are all unique and distinctive. There are four total block sets that you can use, but three of them must be unlocked by reaching a certain point threshold. The icons all represent some kind of force of nature, and are easy to tell apart from one another. Animations are smooth and fluid, but don't expect something like 60 fps here — it's old-timey, with slow blinking and flashes. For someone like me, it's pretty nostalgic, actually.
