Wobble Tower

What it is

Wobble tower is a stacking game with real physics. A crane swings a block back and forth above your tower. Release it and the block drops, lands, slides, tips or settles depending on where it hit. Build on top of that. The taller the tower, the more it sways, and gusts of wind push it around, until a block slips off or the whole thing topples and the run is over. Your score is the height in meters.

How to play

Tap, click or press the action key to let go of the block when it is above the spot you want. Wait for the tower to stop wobbling before you drop the next one. Free play lets you build as often as you like, and daily tower gives everyone the same tower for the day. New game restarts, and the share button sends your height.

What makes it different

Most stacking games snap blocks into place and reward timing alone. Here nothing snaps: every block has to actually balance, an off-center drop makes the whole tower lean, and the wind turns a tall stack into a nervous one. It is equal parts construction and nerve, and the collapse, when it comes, is worth watching.

Why it is on Bored

The classic crane-stacker deserved proper physics, so we gave it some. A run takes about a minute, the tower leans the way a real stack would, and when it goes over you can usually say exactly which block did it, which is why the next run starts straight away. Daily tower hands everyone the same tower, so the height you share means something.

Tips

• Drop blocks centered, a lean is very hard to correct later
• Wait for the swing to slow near the edges before you release
• Let the tower settle after a wobble before adding another block
• Build a wide, steady base, height comes later
