Games most like Block Blast
1. Block Crush!
Block Crush! is the closest copy of the Block Blast loop: place the shapes you’re given, complete rows or columns to clear space, and keep going until the board is full. Its Google Play listing openly pitches it to fans of Block Blast, and the App Store version (out since August 2022) adds a daily block puzzle challenge and offline play. It swaps Block Blast’s bright cubes for a wooden look, and its US App Store listing shows no in-app purchases.

2. Woodoku Blast
Despite the name, Woodoku Blast plays more like Block Blast than like Tripledot’s original Woodoku: colorful blocks, line clears and a long run of themed levels that get harder as you go, according to its App Store page. It is the highest-rated pick here (4.9 on iPhone, 4.8 on Android) and was #10 in Google Play’s top free puzzle games and #12 in the App Store’s Strategy chart on October 29.
3. 1010!
1010! by Gram Games has been on the App Store since September 2014, long before Block Blast, and uses a bigger 10×10 board. The listing promises “no color matching”: just fill lines and chase a high score, with themes and skins on top. It’s rated 4+ by Apple, and removing ads costs $1.99 on the App Store.
4. Block Journey
Block Journey comes from Hungry Studio, the team behind Block Blast. Its Google Play page describes two modes: a Classic Block Puzzle mode and a Journey Mode with illustrated jigsaw-style levels. It’s on Google Play only; Hungry Studio’s US App Store account lists Block Blast, Block Blast!+, Sudoku Blast!, Double Tile!, Solitaire Master and Match Out!, but not Block Journey.
Sudoku-style games like Block Blast
5. Blockudoku
Easybrain’s Blockudoku (2019) is the biggest of the 9×9 games, with more than 100 million Google Play downloads. You clear rows, columns and 3×3 squares, which forces more planning than Block Blast’s 8×8 board. According to the App Store listing, it adds daily challenges with trophies, seasonal events and tournaments with leaderboards. Its “No Ads” purchase is the priciest here at $14.99.
6. Woodoku
Tripledot’s Woodoku (2020) uses the same 9×9 rules with a calm wooden theme and plays offline. The App Store version has 666K ratings at 4.7, while the Android version sits lower at 4.2. Its in-app purchases are unnamed packages, with no separate remove-ads item listed.
7. Playdoku
Playdoku by Burny Games mixes block placement with sudoku rules and offers a relaxed Classic Mode plus a Challenging Mode that gets harder as you progress. Note the age rating: Apple now rates it 18+, while Google Play says Everyone, so pick another game here for younger players.

8. Block! Hexa Puzzle
BitMango’s Block! Hexa Puzzle is a level-based fitting puzzle: you drag hexagon-shaped pieces into a frame until every gap is filled, and pieces can’t be rotated. There are more than 300 levels and no time limit. The App Store description says it shows banner, interstitial, video and house ads; “Remove ADs” costs $1.99.
9. Sand Blast
Sand Blast by Inspired Square (May 2025) drops blocks that dissolve into colored sand. You clear a line by filling it with sand of one color, so you plan around colors as well as shapes. The store page pitches it at fans of Block Blast and Tetris. Ad-free upgrades are listed at $1.99, $3.99 and $9.99.
10. Tetris
The official Tetris app from PLAYSTUDIOS is the falling-block original that every game here owes something to. It has hundreds of hand-designed levels where you solve puzzles before running out of moves, plus a classic endless Marathon mode and limited-time events. It’s rated 4+ and plays offline, and the ads can be switched off for 30 days at a time (from $2.99).

11. Block Blast!+ (Apple Arcade)
Hungry Studio released Block Blast!+ on Apple Arcade on September 3, 2026. It has the same 8×8 board, daily puzzles, endless high-score mode and an Adventure Mode, and like every Arcade game it has no ads and no in-app purchases. It runs on iPhone and iPad and needs an Apple Arcade subscription. Apple rates it 4+, while the free Block Blast is rated 13+. The free version only sells subscriptions on the App Store ($4.99 a week, $9.99 a month or $49.99 a year).
