Made to be seen

Large tiles, a high-contrast theme and a shapes-on-blocks mode for colour-blind players, right on the settings screen.

One Daily Bloom, the same for everyone

Each day brings one gentle puzzle, identical for every player in the world. Scores are comparable, so a grandparent and a grandchild can trade share cards in the family chat. Streaks grow a small garden. Nothing is ever taken away.

For senior centres, carers and community groups

If you run activities, a tech class, a memory café or a newsletter for older adults, Gentle Blocks is safe to recommend. It was designed around the complaints people make about other puzzle apps.

  • No accounts, no sign-up, no personal data collected by the app.
  • Nothing pops up mid-game. No fake "watch this to continue" traps.
  • Drag-and-drop with large targets. A short built-in tutorial on first play.
  • Free promo codes for "Remove Ads Forever" are available for your members. Just ask.
"I built this for my grandmother, who kept tapping ads by mistake in other games and losing her place. Gentle Blocks does not do that. It waits."
