Tear Blocks Down
Tear Blocks Down is a physics-based block shooter by AM-Games. You shoot zombies, place blocks to protect yourself and call in fighters to help. It suits players who like action with a building twist.
What you do in the game
Tear Blocks Down mixes shooting with building. You pick a map, then shoot zombies while using blocks to protect yourself. Everything runs on physics, so blocks that are shot or knocked can fall and break apart.
You can also build structures by placing blocks around the map, and you can call in help: archers, sword masters and fighters fight alongside you. Choosing where to build and when to call helpers is as much a part of the game as aiming.
On a computer you walk with WASD or the arrow keys, look with the mouse, shoot with a click and hold Shift to sprint. On a phone or tablet you drag a joystick to walk, swipe to look and use on-screen buttons to shoot, jump and reload.
Because the game is physics-based, it behaves a little differently each time. A wall you built may hold one wave and collapse in another, and blocks you place can be used both to stop zombies and to give yourself a place to stand. If you are new to browser shooters, start with the controls on a computer, where the mouse makes looking and shooting separate, and then try the touch layout once you know the maps.

Tips from the mechanics
- Put blocks between you and the zombies before they close in, not after.
- Use sprint to reposition rather than to flee in a straight line.
- Call in archers, sword masters and fighters early so they can cover you while you build.
- Remember the physics: a structure that looks solid can still come down if its supports are shot away.
- Try each map once to see which gives you the best places to build.
