Minecraft Blast

What happens when the creators of Candy Crush and Minecraft team up? You get Minecraft Blast, a blocky, boomy mobile mashup that trades digging for dazzling combos, and crafting for castle-building in bite-sized bursts. And surprisingly? It works.

At first glance, it feels like someone dropped a bag of Minecraft bricks into a soda-powered puzzle machine. But once the first TNT tile explodes and a Creeper lurches onto the screen, Minecraft Blast proves it’s more than just a re-skinned puzzler. This is Minecraft’s charm filtered through King’s game-night genius, a match made in mobile heaven.

Each puzzle board is packed with familiar friends and hazards. Chickens cluck, zombies moan, and Creepers… well, they still blow things up. Only now, they’re part of carefully designed stages that reward smart matching and explosive timing. Clear a set of blocks, and you’re rewarded with the tools to build, from quaint villages to towering pixel-perfect palaces.

And while it’s still in limited testing, what’s here is slick, addictive, and strangely cozy. The loops are tight, the worlds whimsical, and it never takes more than a few seconds to hop in, blast a few blocks, and bounce. Perfect for coffee breaks, or sneaky play sessions under the dinner table.

Yes, it’s early days. No, your progress won’t carry over. But if this is Mojang and King just getting started? Minecraft fans better brace for another obsession.

Just… watch out for that Creeper.
Boom. Match over. Try again.
