The rules fit in a breath

Build a little.
Keep what matters.

A tower, a steady hand, and a decision after every piece. Here’s the planned experience. App access is not open yet.

01 / Place

Find your balance.

When the app opens, start a round. Move the pointer, use the Placement slider, or focus the game and use the arrow keys. Click the table, press Drop piece, or use Space or Enter to let gravity take over.

02 / Build

A little higher.

Each stable placement adds 10 points. Piece widths change in a fixed sequence. There is no random failure roll: the piece’s placement and the tower’s balance decide what happens.

03 / Decide

Know when to stop.

After a settled piece, choose another drop or Lock score. A fallen or persistently overturned piece ends the round at zero. Place all eight pieces and your 80 points lock automatically.

Focus the game canvas for keyboard controls. On touch screens, use the Placement slider and Drop piece button. These controls describe the development prototype.

The proposed paid model

Earlier entry.
More point weight.

In each proposed paid round, entry in hours 0–6 gives 1.5× weight, hours 6–12 gives 1.2×, and hours 12–24 gives 1.0×. The schedule is published before registration opens.

Players start together after registration ends. Earlier entry changes your point weight, not the number of attempts. At equal scores, an earlier player receives a larger reward share.

A little thought experiment

Both players lock 60 points

Your weighted score90

A late player, same tower60

Same score. 50% more reward weight.

Point weight is not a financial return. Early entry does not guarantee profit. The advantage resets each round.

Where rewards would come from

One round.
One shared pool.

The illustrative entry fee is 5 USDC. Of entry fees, 90% goes to that round’s reward pool and 10% to operations. Sponsorship, if any, is funded before play.

Your payout = round pool × your weighted score ÷ all weighted scores

Locking a score does not lock a cash payout. Your share depends on everyone’s final score. Without sponsorship, players collectively lose the operating fee plus network fees.

Proposed cancellation rule: below the announced minimum participation, or if every player scores zero, entry fees are refunded and the operating fee is waived. Full rules must be fixed before paid entry opens.
