DropUp

Drop. Stack. Chain it up.

Drop numbered blocks and let gravity chain the merges. But every few drops the floor rises — clear your columns before they hit the ceiling.

About the game

What is DropUp?

DropUp turns the merge puzzle into a drop game. A numbered block waits above a 5×7 grid. Drag left or right to choose a column, release, and it falls to the bottom. If it lands next to a block with the same number, on either side or underneath, the two fuse into one block worth double. Land in a group and the whole group merges at once. Merged blocks keep falling and keep merging, so a single drop can set off a long chain. But the floor does not stand still: every few drops the whole board slides up one row and a fresh row of blocks slips in from the bottom. The run ends when a rising row pushes a block past the ceiling, or when every column is full.

How to play

How to play DropUp

STEP 1

Aim the column

A numbered block hovers above the grid. Drag left or right to pick a column. NEXT shows the block after it.

STEP 2

Release to drop

The block falls to the lowest free cell. Touch the same number on either side or below and they merge into double the value. A dashed ghost block shows where it will land, and dashed outlines mark the blocks it will merge with.

STEP 3

Ride the chain

Merged blocks keep falling and merging. Each extra merge in one drop lights up a ×2, ×3, ×4 combo banner.

STEP 4

Watch the dots

The dots beside NEXT count the drops left before the floor rises. When only a couple of drops are left they turn red, and any column touching the ceiling gets a red outline.

STEP 5

Watch the ceiling

When the floor rises, every block moves up one row. If a block is pushed past the ceiling, the run ends. Filling every column also ends it.

Boosters

Live now

A new challenge every day

Once a day, DropUp builds a challenge board out of the date itself — no per-player shuffle, so the rising floor and the blocks play out from the same starting point for everyone who takes today's challenge. It changes at 00:00 UTC. Your challenge score is kept separate from your normal best score, so a rough run never touches your record.

Daily check-in

Open the game each day to claim that day’s gift and keep a check-in streak going through a seven-day cycle, with the reward growing as the streak runs. The day rolls over at 00:00 UTC, and missing a day starts the streak again from day one.

Leaderboard

Two boards sit at the bottom of this page: best score this month, and today’s challenge. Anyone can read them without signing in. The board shows a shortened name and a country — never an email address.

FAQ

Good to know

Does the ×2, ×3 combo multiply my score?

No. The ×n banner counts how many merges one drop set off. Your score is the value of every block you create, so a long chain still pays because it creates bigger blocks.

What happens to small numbers when the ladder moves up?

When your highest block grows, the smallest number retires. Blocks below MIN leave the board and score their value. If the block you are holding is below MIN, drop it anywhere: it scores and vanishes.

How do lives work?

You hold up to 5 lives and each new run costs one. A life comes back on its own every 30 minutes. You can also watch an optional ad or spend coins for a refill.

Does DropUp work on a phone?

Yes. It is built for touch: drag with one finger to pick the column and lift to drop. It also plays with a mouse or the arrow keys on desktop.

What are the dots next to NEXT?

They count the drops left before the floor rises. When only a couple of drops are left they turn red and flash, and any column touching the ceiling is outlined in red — clear it or the rise ends your run.

Why did my run end when the board wasn't full?

Every few drops the floor rises one row. If a rising row pushes a block past the ceiling, the run ends right away, even if the other columns are nearly empty. Watch the dots and clear tall columns first.

Is the DropUp daily challenge the same for every player?

It is. The challenge board is generated from the date, not from your account, so everyone who plays today's DropUp challenge faces the same run.

Do I need an account to view the DropUp boards?

No. Reading the monthly and daily boards is open to anyone. An account only matters if you want to be listed on them.

Does missing a day reset my DropUp streak?

Yes, the check-in streak goes back to day one after a missed day. Your coins, boosters and best score are untouched.
