To progress through the game, tap each block as it enters from the right side of your screen. Each block you tap earns you points. When a block is placed perfectly central on your existing tower of blocks, you'll earn greater points. Progress through Google, Pixel, and Gemini eras to unlock new blocks and opportunities to boost your points. Special blocks will grant you extra points: perfect placement of the 'Gift block' gives you twenty points and other successful placement gives you ten points; placement of 'Add Me' blocks creates a 'Gift block'; placement of 'Best Take' blocks ensure the next five blocks land perfectly; a 'Gemini streak' grants double points when ten blocks are placed perfectly in a row. Try to top your previous score. The game will end after 90 blocks are placed.

The game will take you through three eras: Google, Pixel, and Gemini. Each era has special blocks that allow you to earn even more points. Gameplay will continue seamlessly through the eras until the gameplay ends naturally.

Controls and Gameplay Mechanics

The blocks enter the screen regularly, with increased speed throughout the eras. To control the blocks, tap them to fall into a tower. Be sure to tap at the most accurate time to make the blocks fall perfectly upon the previous block, and in the centre of the screen. To score points, the block must land anywhere on the previous block. To score greater points, the incoming block must land centrally on the tower, upon a previous block.

The different eras change the background of the game three times, as well as introducing new special blocks to allow you to boost your points even more.
