Fill the board with blocks in this groovy puzzle game
Drop 'n' Fill! is a puzzle game developed by Exploding Cable Productions for PC gaming, in which players are presented with a grid and a bunch of blocks. In this casual title, users must create a line by filling the board with the blocks to score points.
Illustrated in vibrant 2D graphics, Drop 'n' Fill! delivers a fun and engaging experience, complemented by its score attack mechanic. While there is a time limit in the gameplay, this title remains perfect for casual gaming thanks to its accompanying soundtrack, which sets the mood perfectly.
Create lines and score points
In Drop 'n' Fill!, the ultimate goal is to create lines with the blocks to score points, whether they are vertical or horizontal. Once these lines are made, they disappear from the grid, turning into a set of points and leaving the excess blocks. This must be done repeatedly until the time given is over to score the highest points possible.
This game shares similarities with the classic Tetris title, such as using the same block shapes and grid. However, instead of blocks falling down the board, players must be the ones to place the blocks on the board to score points. In addition, unlike Tetris, where filling the board vertically results in a game over, this game allows players to form vertical lines to score points.
The best thing about this game is, perhaps, the accompanying electronic music. Unlike in other games where the soundtrack’s sole purpose is to set the mood, the blocks in this title dance to the music. If left unchecked for some time, they yeet themselves out of the grid, screwing one's strategy. However, since the game lacks variety, it becomes repetitive over time.
Creative puzzle experience
Drop 'n' Fill! offers a fun and engaging puzzle experience with its vibrant graphics, time-limited gameplay, and catchy electronic soundtrack. While its score attack mechanic and block placement provide a familiar yet enjoyable challenge, the lack of gameplay variety may lead to repetitive moments for players. Nonetheless, for those seeking a casual and entertaining puzzle game, this is a solid choice with a charming, upbeat twist.
