While most block puzzles today come with the same formula, Wood Block Puzzle Beetles Game Studio offers something unique and different. Wood Block Puzzle, as what the title suggests, brings you to a stunning rustic-inspired puzzle game. Your main objective is to get the highest score by clearing as many tiles as possible. To do so, you must strategically place the tiles on the board and complete straight lines vertically or horizontally to clear them off the board and earn points and bonuses in return. If you have mastered this kind of puzzle, feel free to explore Wood Block Puzzle and see what are the unique things it has to offer.
The Gameplay
The mechanics for this puzzle game are generally simple and easily manageable. Interestingly, Wood Block Puzzle works exactly the same as the classic block puzzle that we used to enjoy. However, this puzzle comes with many features that will help you maximize your winnings. It also offers an interesting reward system that gives you more reason to play this game. As soon as the game begins, the player will be prompted to the standard and fixed 10×10 Wooden board. Below the panel are the wooden tiles that come in batches of three. Simply drag and drop the tiles and try your best to establish an effective strategy to create and clear as many lines as possible.
Take note that you must consume the previous batch of tiles in order to get a new batch. Strategically place them on the board and take advantage of the combos to earn more points. The more lines you clear in a single turn, the highest the bonus points you can get. Just make sure that you will not run out of space. Otherwise, the game will come to a quick end and you will have no other option but to start back from the very beginning.
Keys, Chests, Reserve, and Rotate
What really separates Wood Block Puzzle from the rest are the extra features. It comes with Reserve and Block Rotator tools that you can use to keep you in the game. The empty box on the lower right corner of the game screen is called the “Holder”. You can drag and drop a single tile in the holder to reserve it and use it for another turn. This will also help you get the next batch of tiles without actually consuming the previous one.
The game also comes with a Rotate function. Just like the classic Tetris, this function allows you to rotate the tiles before placing them on the board. Rotate, however, comes in a very limited batch. You can earn Rotate in many different ways. You can obtain them from the special chests or you can also get them when creating combos. The game also features an award meter on top of the game board. You earn points whenever you create a match. You can expedite the process with combos. Once you have reached a Chest, it will reward you with additional keys which you can later use to open more rewards (mostly block rotators).
Stunning Graphics
Appearance-wise, Wood Block Puzzle is an absolute visual delight. It takes you to a visually stunning atmosphere adorned with beautiful wooden gameboard and tiles. It is also complemented by leaves and floral frames to match the rustic theme. The game is also accompanied by a well-fitting piece of music and audio effect for a more satisfying user experience. Interestingly, the game also comes with an in-game shop that allows you to earn free block rotators (via reward videos) or buy in-app packages. There’s also a VIP account that will not just eliminate the ads but will also provide you with 3 free block rotators every day.
The Verdict
Wood Block Puzzle is generally a simple yet absolutely entertaining block puzzle game. It may still have the same old formula for block puzzle games but it is incorporated with extra elements to elevate the overall user experience. The block rotators and the ability to reserve tiles are definitely impressive addition to the classic block puzzle mechanics. Appearance-wise, Wood Block Puzzle will certainly not disappoint. It is loaded with visually appealing graphics, a stunning rustic theme, and accompanied by a great piece of music and audio effects. To top it all, the game features an excellent reward system and in-game leaderboards that provide Wood Block Puzzle an impressive replay value. Have fun!
