Total Attack

How many taps will it take to flatten every target in Total Attack? Time your clicks perfectly and trigger chain reactions that tear through each puzzle board.

Total Attack is the kind of puzzle game that looks stupidly simple until you're three levels deep and suddenly you're counting squares in your sleep. You tap the screen. That's it. But each tap sends out a pulse that wipes out targets in a straight line, and if you line up the right trajectory, you can take out a whole row, a column, even a diagonal if the level gives you the angle. It's like playing pool with explosions, except the only cue is your fingertip. What got me hooked was the chain reaction logic. Some levels have targets that detonate when hit, setting off neighbors, and if you tap the right spot you can clear an entire board with a single move. I remember a round where I stared at a cluster of red blocks for a solid minute, convinced there was no way to get them all, then tapped a corner block by accident and watched the whole screen pop like bubble wrap. The sound design doesn't hurt either — every hit lands with a satisfying thunk that makes you want to tap again immediately. It's not all easygoing though. Total Attack ramps up by adding limited taps per level, moving targets, and barriers that absorb your pulses. That's when you start planning two or three moves ahead, because one wasted tap can mean restarting. The progression feels fair: you always know what you did wrong, and the satisfaction of finding the perfect sequence is worth the occasional rage quit. If you want a puzzle that respects your time but still makes you think, this one's worth a few rounds.

Start from the edges — clearing outer targets first often opens up chain reactions toward the center. You can tap and hold to see a trajectory preview before committing. If a level has a move limit, count your required taps before you start; sometimes you need to sacrifice one target to save two. Watch for detonator blocks: they flash slightly before exploding, so time your tap right after they trigger for a bigger chain. Don't just spam taps — wait for moving targets to align with your attack line.
