MR BLOCK

How long can you keep a little square from becoming a pancake? Jump, duck, and slide Mr Block through a gauntlet of fast-moving hazards.

I’ll be honest: my first run lasted about four seconds. Mr Block looks cute, but the moment you tap Space you realize the whole screen is out to flatten it. You’re not just jumping over things—you’re also sliding up and down to squeeze through gaps that appear way faster than feels fair. The auto-run pace starts manageable, then after maybe twenty seconds it hits a rhythm where your eyes have to stay glued to the right edge of the screen. The controls are dead simple: Space or Shift to jump, arrow keys or W/S to shift vertically. What makes it click is that vertical movement often beats jumping. I kept leaping over low blocks until I realized a quick down tap saved time and kept my block aligned for the next obstacle. There’s a specific pattern—a tall wall with a floor-level opening—that killed me repeatedly because I tried to jump it. Go low, not high. That little decision is the whole game. It’s a pure high-score chaser. No upgrades, no coins, no mercy. If you’re the type who says 'one more try' after every death, Mr Block will absolutely eat your afternoon. And yes, it works flawlessly in a browser tab at school.

Use 'Space' or 'Shift' to Jump Arrows keys or 'W' / 'S' to move Up and Down respectively

Don’t jump over low obstacles — a fast down arrow keeps your block low and ready. Tap Space for a short hop instead of holding it; full jumps float too long. Keep your eyes on the right edge where hazards spawn, not on your block. When a wall appears with a gap near the floor, commit to sliding under it early. Count the rhythm of moving blocks; they usually follow a repeating cycle.
