Stacker game online

Stop the sliding row on top of the stack. Practice right here, then climb 15 floors in Overclock.

Quick practice

A simplified version with the real floor bands: 3 blocks wide on floors 1 to 5, 2 on floors 6 to 10, 1 on floors 11 to 15. Tap, or press Space, to stop the row.

Press Start, then tap to stop each row.

The real game

Overclock is a neon stacker with 15 floors. Floors 1 to 5 start 3 blocks wide, then 2, then 1, and the row speeds up every floor.

Play Overclock

Free. Works on phones, tablets and computers. Nothing to install.

How Overclock works

  • Stop the row. Tap anywhere, or press Space or Enter. A block stays if it is over the row below. The rest shatters.
  • Perfect stops. Land with nothing lost to get a PERFECT. Three perfects in a row grow one block back.
  • Floor 10 checkpoint. Bank your prize (+500) and end the run, or push for the major prize at floor 15 (+2,500) and risk losing the minor one.
  • Daily tower. Everyone gets the same seed each day. You have 3 runs a day and your best score counts. Practice has no limit.

Tips

  • Watch the lower row. Aim for its edge, not the sliding row.
  • Find the rhythm. Speed rises every floor, so tap on the beat instead of reacting.
  • Stay wide early. Perfect stops on floors 1 to 5 give you room later.
  • Decide on floor 10 before you get there. Banking is safe, and pushing is a gamble.

Questions

How do you win the stacker game?

Stop each sliding row so it sits on top of the row below. Anything that hangs over the edge is cut off, so the stack gets narrower with every mistake. Reach the top floor and you win the major prize.

What is a stacker arcade game?

An arcade game where a row of lights slides back and forth and you press a button to stop it on top of the previous row. Misses shrink your tower until it is a single block.

Is there a trick to the stacker game?

Watch the edge of the row below, not the moving row, and tap just before the blocks line up. The speed rises each floor, so rhythm matters more than reflexes.

What is Overclock?
