Curves change everything.
QUARC is a falling block puzzle game in which every piece is built from concave and convex arcs, from circles to four-pointed stars. Match the curves so they fit together neatly and filled rows will disappear. But when curves collide instead of matching, or leave impossible holes, it's a recipe for disaster.
That simple idea pulls the classic block puzzle genre into new territory where nothing looks familiar. No more stacking squares and rectangles edge-to-edge. In QUARC, you're reading the contour of the surface you have already built, and finding the piece that belongs.
No subscriptions, no ads, no loot boxes — ever.
FIVE WAYS TO PLAY
Classic: endless, and it steadily gets faster.
Zen: endless, and it never speeds up. The quiet, relaxing one. Stay as long as you like.
Sprint: clear sixteen rows as fast as you can. A race against the clock.
Survival: at first, every piece fits somewhere. As your score climbs, fewer and fewer fit anywhere. Survive.
Challenge: a brand-new pre-filled board every day to surprise and exasperate you. The same board for everyone, and it resets at midnight UTC.
ON THE BOARD
Golden pieces fill the gaps that ill-fitting curves leave behind.
Bombs blast a piece out of midair when the shape you were given is the one shape you cannot use.
A streak of ten perfect landings in a row slows the whole game down.

Since my 1010! app got super glitchy and buggy, I’ve been looking for replacements. Quarc is a huge upgrade in terms of the user interface, graphics, and quality. I love that it’s a new twist on a familiar concept. Thinking through the spatial dynamics of how these blocks fit together helps as the speed accelerates. I’m completely hooked on this game and find myself reflexively reaching for it several times a day.
Developer Response
I really appreciate the positive feedback! Thank you so much!
I want to be the best to ever do it.

There’s something about this game that has aroused an otherwise dormant competitive spirit buried deep inside of me. As a former athlete that smoked too much weed in college and fell in love with puzzles as a way to procrastinate studying, Quarc. has given me the jolt to be a better father, husband, brother, son, and professional. In other words Quarc. has made me a better man.

Happy I could be of service.
Good Game Like Tetris

If you enjoy Tetris, you’ll enjoy Quarc. Everything in Tetris is straight, but here there are curves so your mind gets working differently. Fun!

Thanks for playing! Glad you're enjoying it.

Playing this game took my mood from indifferent to frustrated. Probably will keep playing anyways.
