Coins, Boosters & Board Themes Have Arrived
Dhamaka Blocks just shipped its biggest update since launch. Every game you play now earns coins, and those coins unlock real tactical power — three new boosters to rescue a run or protect a combo streak, and seven board themes to make your grid look exactly the way you want.
- A daily coin economy — earn coins from every game plus an escalating 7-day Daily Reward cycle
- Three boosters — REFRESH, UNDO and BOMB, spendable any time you have the coins
- Seven board themes across three tiers, from a free recolor up to a fully animated Prestige board
- Long-term milestone chests that reward players who keep coming back, with two exclusive free themes
How You Earn Coins
Coins now come from two places. First, every game you finish pays out roughly 1 coin per 100 points scored, capped at 50 coins per game — so better runs earn more. Second, the home screen has a new Daily Reward you can claim once per day, on an escalating 7-day cycle:
| Cycle Day | Coins |
|---|---|
| Day 1 | 25 |
| Day 2 | 40 |
| Day 3 | 60 |
| Day 4 | 80 |
| Day 5 | 120 |
| Day 6 | 160 |
| Day 7 | 400 |
Miss a day and the cycle resets to Day 1 — so the streak is worth protecting, especially as Day 7 gets close.
Separately from the resettable 7-day cycle, your lifetime total of daily claims unlocks one-time bonus chests that never reset: 150 coins at 7 total days, 400 coins plus a free Aurora theme at 30 total days, and 800 coins plus a free Monsoon theme at 100 total days. Progress bars for each milestone are visible right in the Daily Reward sheet.
Three New Boosters
Boosters spend coins mid-game to buy you a second chance — no daily limit, just your coin balance. All three also work during the brief "last chance" window if a game would otherwise end.
| Booster | Cost | What It Does |
|---|---|---|
| UNDO | 30 coins | Reverses your most recent placement |
| REFRESH | 40 coins | Discards your current tray for 3 fresh pieces |
| BOMB | 60 coins | Tap to arm, then tap a filled cell to clear a 3×3 area around it |
BOMB got extra love this update too — it now has a proper explosion effect with stronger haptic feedback, so clearing space actually feels as satisfying as it should.
Seven Board Themes
The theme shop offers three tiers of visual customisation. Basic — Ember, free by default — is a simple recolor. Signature — Midnight, Peacock, Sunset and Frost, from 400 to 1,200 coins — adds themed line-clear effects and tray styling on top. Prestige — Monsoon at 2,400 coins — adds a fully animated ambient background on top of everything Signature offers. The other Prestige theme, Aurora, isn't for sale at all — it's exclusive to the 30-day milestone chest above.
Also in This Update
Alongside the headline features, this release includes an animated logo intro on cold start, unified accessibility semantics across the Settings screen, tray and piece-preview rendering performance improvements, and hardened PII protection across logging and analytics.
