How to play, common questions, and how to get in touch.
Place shapes, clear lines, and keep going for as long as possible. The game ends when no remaining shape can fit anywhere on the board. Chase your personal best.
Hand-crafted levels organised into packs, each with layered objectives and three-star ratings. Two packs ship with the game, both free: Starter Pack (15 levels) and Cyberpunk Pack (50 levels, unlocked after completing Starter).
Drag shapes from the tray at the bottom of the screen onto the 8Γ8 grid. Shapes must fit fully within the grid and cannot overlap existing tiles. Release to place.
Fill every cell in a row or column and it clears instantly, earning you points and freeing up space. Any number of rows and columns can clear from a single placement.
Clearing multiple lines at once multiplies your score dramatically.
| Lines Cleared | Multiplier |
|---|---|
| 1 line | 1Γ |
| 2 lines | 3Γ |
| 3 lines | 7Γ |
| 4+ lines | 12Γ |
Clearing a row and a column simultaneously grants a bonus of +300 points for every cell at their intersection. Set up cross-clears for a big boost.
If every tile in a cleared line is the same color, you earn a +500 point color bonus per line. Plan placements carefully to match colors across a full row or column.
Clear lines on consecutive placements to build a streak multiplier. One grace placement (that doesn't clear) is allowed before your streak resets.
| Multiplier | Level |
|---|---|
| 1Γ | Warm |
| 2β3Γ | Hot |
| 4β5Γ | Blazing |
| 6β8Γ | Inferno |
| 9+Γ | GODLIKE |
Larger, trickier shapes carry a 1.5Γ difficulty multiplier β any line clear triggered by placing one earns boosted points. Don't avoid them; they're worth more.
Earn 1 spark per line cleared (max 10). Tap a shape to rotate it freely before placing. Placing a rotated shape costs 1 spark β rotate as many times as you like, the cost is only on placement.
At 10 sparks (full charge), every placement automatically earns a passive 2Γ point bonus with no action needed. This bonus lasts until you spend a spark by rotating a shape or triggering IGNITE!
Tap the IGNITE! button to consume all your sparks and apply them as a multiplier to your next placement. 10 sparks = 10Γ score. Use it right before a big multi-line clear for a massive points explosion.
The score display changes color as your spark count rises β a quick visual read of your power level.
| Sparks | Color |
|---|---|
| 0 | Neon Pink |
| 1β3 | Cyan |
| 4β6 | Purple |
| 7β9 | Red |
| 10 | Gold |
Clear every tile from the board at once to trigger a 2,000 point jackpot. Pull it off on consecutive clears and it doubles each time: 2K β 4K β 8K β 16Kβ¦
Clearing the board also grants a save (max 3). Three colored blocks in the top-left represent your saves: cyan (1st), magenta (2nd), gold (3rd). Tap any lit block to instantly wipe the board when you're stuck. Saves grant no points β they're your escape hatch.
If you run out of moves but still have at least one save, a CONTINUE button appears instead of the game-over screen. Tap it to spend one save and keep playing. No points are awarded for continuing.
Puzzle Packs are collections of hand-crafted levels with structured objectives. Two packs are available at launch, both free:
Starter Pack (15 levels) β teaches the fundamentals: line clears, multi-clears, cross clears, streaks, single-color clears, and a final board-clear puzzle. Available from the start.
Cyberpunk Pack (50 levels) β unlocks after earning at least 1 star on every Starter level. Split into three blocks: 15 open levels with harder objectives, 15 scripted-shape puzzles (the game deals you specific shapes in a set order, often with a pre-filled board), and 20 apex-tier stages including The Gauntlet at Level 65 β the hardest puzzle in Nubrixy.
Every level has three layered objectives: a β primary (completes the level), a β β bonus condition (e.g. finish in β€10 placements), and a β β β harder bonus (e.g. don't break your streak). The level ends the moment the primary is satisfied β bonus objectives must also be met at that exact point. Earn all three stars on a level and it's marked with a gold crown.
Yes, completely free. There are no ads, no in-app purchases, and no subscriptions β ever.
Yes. Nubrixy works entirely offline. No internet connection is needed to play.
No. Nubrixy has no user accounts and makes no network calls. Your high score, saved game, and puzzle progress are stored only on your device and never leave it.
Not at this time. Progress is stored locally and is specific to each device.
From the home screen, tap Play Now. If you have an existing saved game, you'll see a Continue button and a New Game button below it. Tap New Game to discard your saved game and start fresh.
Try toggling the sound icon (top-right of the game screen) off and then on again. Also check that your device's silent/mute switch is off β iOS games respect the hardware silent switch for sound effects.
Yes. Nubrixy supports both iPhone and iPad in portrait and landscape orientations. The layout adapts automatically to your screen size.
Complete every level in the Starter Pack with at least 1 star. You don't need to master them β one star per level is enough to unlock the Cyberpunk Pack. Once unlocked it stays unlocked permanently.
Each level ends the moment the primary objective is satisfied β bonus star objectives must also be met at that exact point. Try a different approach, such as clearing lines more efficiently or avoiding streak resets, and replay the level to earn missing stars.
Any iPhone or iPad running iOS 17.6 or later.
