About this game

Volcano Blast is a fast-paced arcade strategy game where you control a hungry volcano on a field of precious gems. Your goal is simple: achieve the highest score possible within a thrilling 60-second time limit.
The core mechanic is built on a clever rule of consumption. Your volcano can only absorb gems that are smaller than its current size. Each gem you successfully consume causes your volcano to grow, making you more powerful but also changing which gems you can target next. This creates a dynamic and ever-shifting puzzle where you must constantly plan your path across the playing field. Do you go for a chain of small, easy gems to grow quickly, or risk maneuvering for a larger, more valuable gem that is just within your reach?
Strategic decision-making is further enhanced by a bonus system. After every fifth gem consumed, you are presented with a critical choice: increase your volcano's size by 50% to unlock access to larger gems or add 5 precious seconds to the game clock for more opportunities to score. This choice defines your playstyle and strategy for each round. Do you prioritize aggressive growth or grant yourself more time to execute a complex plan?
The scoring system rewards both ambition and efficiency. Larger gems are worth significantly more points, encouraging you to grow your volcano as much as possible to go after the biggest prizes. The ultimate challenge is to chain together your movements and gem absorptions to create a massive, high-scoring combo before the time runs out.
Master the growth mechanics, make smart choices with your bonuses, and dominate the gem field. How high can you score in one minute?
