Tip a chunky 1x2 block end over end across floating stone tiles, keep every roll on the board, and land it standing upright on the teal socket. Sixty levels, glass tiles, one wrong roll and it's the void.
About Roll the Block
Roll the Block hands you a tall amber block balanced on a raft of stone tiles over a glowing void, with one rule: every roll flips it between standing and lying flat, so the same four arrows produce different footprints depending on how the block sits. That's the whole puzzle. To finish a level you have to arrive at the goal socket standing upright, which usually means rolling past it, flipping somewhere awkward, and coming back at the right parity.
The classic trap is a one-tile-wide bridge: lying lengthwise you glide across in two rolls, but reach it standing and you'll tip straight into the void with a very final little tumble. From level 20, glass tiles raise the stakes — a standing block cracks them on the first visit and crashes through on the second, while lying across them stays safe, so late levels become routing problems about where you can afford to stand.
Every level is solver-verified with par set to the true optimum, and undo, reset, and a next-best-roll hint keep experimenting cheap. Good for anyone who liked Bloxorz, or who enjoys puzzles where the answer is obvious two seconds after falling.

How to play Roll the Block
Roll the block with the arrow keys, WASD, or a swipe; each roll tips it over one edge, switching between standing and lying. Keep every part of the block on the tiles — anything hanging over the edge falls into the void and restarts the level. Land the block standing upright on the round teal socket to clear the level; matching par earns three stars. Watch the glass tiles from level 20: standing on one cracks it, and standing on a cracked pane shatters it.
Controls
Desktop: arrow keys or WASD to roll, U undo, R reset, H hint, M mute. Touch: swipe on the board to roll, with on-screen undo, reset, hint, and mute buttons.
Tips & tricks
- Think in parity: a standing block moves 2 tiles per roll along its fall direction, a lying one moves 1, so plan whether you'll arrive at the socket upright before you set off.
- Cross narrow one-tile bridges lying down lengthwise — reaching them standing usually means a drop into the void.
- Glass panes are safe to lie across no matter what, so route your flat rolls over the glass and save solid stone for the squares where you must stand; a cracked pane still supports a lying block but never a second stand.
- Falling costs nothing but the restart, and undo survives it — if you're circling the socket without ever arriving upright, use one hint to reveal the flip you kept skipping.
