GloomStack

About this game

Deep in the crypt, an old cairn waits to be rebuilt — one cursed relic at a time. Skulls, tomes, candlesticks, chalices, tombstones and bones drop from the dark. Guide each one onto the stack, keep your nerve, and watch how far a single lonely gravekeeper can build before the whole thing comes down.
GLOOMSTACK is a physics-based balancing game: every relic you place shifts the cairn's weight, and the tower leans exactly as far as your choices push it. Land pieces dead-center for a Perfect and chain them for bonus Soul Shards. Drift too far to one side, too many times, and gravity remembers.
When the torches flare red, a gale is coming. Brace against it in time and the cairn holds. Ignore the warning and find out the hard way.
Features
Real balance physics — no fixed grid, no safety net. The cairn leans the way you build it.
Perfect placements and combo streaks for bonus Soul Shards.
Wind gales that test your timing, with a brace mechanic to fight back.
Six unlockable achievements, from your first steady stack to a cairn tall enough to earn its name.
A full menu: How to Play, Music/SFX settings, pause, and a Game Over screen with real run stats and a persisted best height.
A haunting, procedurally generated soundtrack and sound effects — no audio files, just Web Audio drones and chimes that shift with the mood of the run.
Its own gothic visual identity: candlelit purples, aged brass, and bone white, distinct from every other game in the collection.
How high can your cairn stand before the dead take it back?
