What Makes Block the Pig Stand Out
Place hex blocks in the way of the fugitive pig in "Block the Pig," a turn-based puzzle game! The game rules are simple. Tap on an empty cell of the hexagon board to place a block. Before the round starts, close the shortest escape routes on the board with 3 bonus blocks. The pig will then run away from the hex maze. Place a new block after each move the pig makes, until there's no way out! As rounds advance, the hexagon maze becomes sparser and the pig blocking quest trickier.
The number of puzzles in the game is infinite. Beat the top rounds of the other players in the leaderboards! Unlock achievements and improve your spatial wits for free!
Features:
▶ endless random levels on a hex board
▶ relaxing ambient atmosphere
▶ cute piggy!
This Board game offers engaging gameplay and regular updates for mobile players.

Community Insight:
This game is so fun idec. We could play for hours on end. We have never and will never get tired of this pig. Get this game u wont regret it.
If you want to play it just play it on MobyMax website after doing your math homework lol.
Recently broke 100 rounds and am 5th on the leaderboard. This game is deceptively strategic and difficult, and requires you to learn about the pigs movements and AI in order to succeed.
Used to play this all the time 5/5 best game.
Cute game. Our kids saw someone play this on YouTube and wanted to try it. They love it.
We started this game on pc and when we got this game on mobile we had something to do when in the car or whenever. Block the Pig is a fun game that challenges you to come up with new strategies, and Id highly recommend it to anyone.
This game is SO much fun! We actually played it in our gifted class, and that's how we got hooked on it! We love that the game is so fun and carefree but at the same time there's so many strategies and logic tied into it! We got to round 20 and trying to get higher. What you guys get? Definitely recommend this game, best game to kill time with.
It needs more spaces to place blocks to block the pig.
Ive been playing this game for years now so we were very excited to discover that there was a mobile version of the original game. However, we were disappointed with this games functionality. Every time we try to play or even launch the app, it crashes and wont let us use the game. We suggest you make improvements soon but for now Im going to have to uninstall the app.
One is its not fair to have to start from beginning (level ONE!!) if you mess up! And problem two is, is it really necessary to have an ad every minute or after every time you mess up?! Ughhh #Deleted.
This Game reminds of being on our grandpas farm.. Before he was killed in a hog stampede. Dont Recommend this game.
Day 32: it's been a month since our addiction started. Insomnia is setting in. We see hallucinations of pigs escaping everywhere we look. We can't stop playing this game. Help us.
It all started last week. We wanted to play a fun game to pass the time when we came across this game for the computer. It seemed like harmless fun at first. We soon realized that we had been playing for 3 straight hours and our nose began to bleed. We did not wipe our nose we only let it bleed. We didn't even stop the junky who continued to stick our arms with heroine. We're starting therapy soon. Hopefully our life can bounce back from this life ruining game. 5 stars.
THIS GAME WILL SOON BE ALL THE RAGE.
We feel like it isn't super popular, but we can't see why. It is great.
We started playing it on cool math games and now we can play it mobile.
This game is a game we can play online or mobile any day any time we don't even have to be bored it's just so fun there are games we have played more but this game is going to be the most played game by us definitely.
This is like the only game we play this much.
The new Flappy Bird! OMG!!!!!!!!! This pig is a BOSS.
This game is so addicting, it isn't even funny! We found ourselves playing this for hours at a time! It's definitely a game to play when you are bored.
OH N Y GOD OKAY SO we LOVE THE GAME BUT TOO MANY ADS SO COULD YOU LIKE, HAVE AN aD FREE THING SO YOU cOUDL PAY $0.99 FOR IT BC YEAH we'LL GET IT.
The timer on a full screen ad got stuck and there was no way to get back to the game without restarting the phone or deleting and re-installing.
Literally crashes every 10 seconds.
We can't play this game for 3 minutes without it crashing.
This games rocks, we can't stop playing it. We play it on the computers at school ALL the time. We're surprised this game isn't on top of the charts.
So fun and addicting; better than we expected! If you lose a round it starts you back at round 1, so be strategic.
