Place every offered block
Each turn gives you a small set of block shapes. Drag a piece onto any empty grid spaces that match its shape. A piece can only be placed when every square fits.

How to play Plokk without filling the board too soon
Plokk is a turn-based block puzzle game about space management. You are not racing a timer. The best runs come from patient placement, clean lanes, and knowing when to trade a small score now for more room later.
Core Rules
Clear rows and columns
Complete a full horizontal row or vertical column to clear it from the board. Clearing space is the heart of long runs because the board never resets during a game.
Plan for awkward shapes
Straight pieces, corners, squares, and larger shapes all need different pockets. Keep a mix of open lanes and compact spaces so the next turn has options.
Use power-ups with intent
Power-ups are strongest when they prevent a dead end, rescue a blocked lane, or set up a high-value combo. Spending one early can be worth it if it keeps the run alive.
A Good First Run
First 10 moves
Keep the center useful. Avoid scattering single empty cells that cannot fit common shapes.
Middle game
Build near-complete rows and columns together so one placement can clear more than one lane.
Late game
Protect one large open area. A single safe pocket can buy the extra turn that starts a comeback.
