Mello is a free 8×8 block puzzle with a shared Daily challenge and a fair Endless mode. There is no timer, no lives system, and no paid luck. Place three pieces at a time, clear full rows and columns, and build combos — on this device, offline-ready after the first load, with an optional account only if you want synced score summaries.
Everyone who plays a given UTC date receives the same 30-piece Daily sequence. Endless uses a seeded bag and a deterministic safety check that never rewrites hands based on your score or purchases. Website ads, when they appear, never change pieces, scoring, difficulty, or outcomes. Themes are free cosmetic choices.
You earn one point per cell you place. When a move clears one or more full rows or columns, a clear bonus applies: 10 × (lines cleared)² × combo. Combo rises when you clear on consecutive moves and resets when a move clears nothing. Multi-line clears are especially valuable because line count is squared before combo multiplies.
Tap or click a piece, then place it on empty board cells. Clear a full row or column. Empty the tray to draw three more pieces. Try Endless to learn freely, or open The Daily for today's shared challenge. Keyboard players can move the placement target with arrow keys and confirm with Enter or Space.
