Hype Blast
Tap clusters of matching cubes to blast them. Big groups make boosters, and two boosters touching fuse into a combo. Reach the goal within your moves to clear the level — every clear also moves your quests, events, and your crew's Hype Showdown.
Free to play, free to retry — every cleared level earns Neons for the Hype Hunt.
Tap to Blast Puzzle: how to play, rules & tips
Play Tap to Blast Puzzle free online: tap groups of matching cubes to blast them, build boosters, fuse them into combos and hit each level's goal before your moves run out.
How to play Tap to Blast Puzzle
The board is 8 columns by 9 rows of cubes in five colors. Tap any group of two or more touching cubes of the same color to blast it. Cubes above fall down and new ones drop in from the top.
Each tap uses one move. Every level shows a goal and a move count. Some goals are a target score; others ask you to clear a number of cubes of certain colors or clear obstacles such as balloons, crates, chains, frost, glass or money safes. Meet the goal before your moves run out to clear the level and move on along the level map.
Boosters, combos and obstacles
Big groups leave a booster where you tap: 5 or more cubes make a Star that blasts a 3×3 area, 7 or more make a Rocket that clears its row and column, and 9 or more make a Color Bomb that clears every cube of one color. Cubes in a big group show which booster they will make before you tap.
Tap a booster that touches another booster and they fuse into a bigger combo, such as a Super Star, Mega Cross or Rainbow Blast. Boosters caught in a blast go off too, so they chain.
Obstacles take hits from pops next to them or from blasts. Crates break, chains snap, frost and glass lose a layer per hit, and a 2×2 money safe opens after three hits. When you clear a level, leftover moves turn into rockets in a bonus finale, and your score earns one to three stars.

Tap to Blast Puzzle tips
- Read the goal first. On collect and obstacle levels, score doesn't matter, so spend moves only on what the goal needs.
- Don't waste moves on small pairs. Let a color grow into a group of 7 or 9 for a Rocket or Color Bomb.
- Set boosters up side by side, then tap one to fuse them. A combo clears far more than two boosters fired separately.
- Aim blasts at obstacles. One Star next to several crates or frozen cubes hits all of them at once.
- Win levels in a row to start the next one with free boosters already on the board.
