About the game

Can you reach $500 in one run? Clear lines and chain combos to climb ten VALUE milestones, from $0.01 to $500, in a falling-block puzzle that speeds up through 21 levels. $500 is an in-game goal, not the price. No real money is won or paid out.

Original Steam description

Can you reach $500 in one run?


Clear lines. Build combos. Keep the stack under control as the pieces fall faster.

In THIS GAME COSTS $500, your score determines your in-game VALUE. Reach ten milestones from $0.01 to $500—and survive the climb.

$500 is an in-game goal. It is not the purchase price. You cannot earn, win, or withdraw real money.

Keep the run alive


Plan ahead with a preview of the next three pieces, save a piece with Hold, and use the optional ghost piece to line up your next placement.

Clear several lines at once for more points. Clear lines with consecutive pieces to build a combo—but a placement that clears nothing breaks the chain.

Every ten cleared lines raises your level, up to level 21. The speed increases, the stakes rise, and extra music layers join in as you climb.

Reach the goal. Then beat your best.


Hit $500 to reach the “YOU MADE IT” celebration screen. Continue the same run to push your score higher, or start again and chase a new personal best.

After each run, review your score, lines, level, highest combo, play time, and highest VALUE.
