About This Game

Discover, relax, create.

PhotoBricks is an interactive digital gallery featuring curated photographs from around the world and letting you add your own. While all of these can be viewed in Gallery mode we built this so you can clear the bricks away and reveal the photographs for yourself.

A sanctuary from stress

Clearing bricks is a zen-like experience with a soothing soundscape designed to help you relax as you enjoy the calm gameplay. No twitch reflexes required, this is a game for everybody, although for those who want it, multiple challenge settings allow the difficulty to be significantly increased. For the rest of us this is a gentle game of discovery and relaxation, offering 100 beautiful and interesting photographs to reveal.

Be creative and make it personal

If you'd rather interact with your own, just drop them into a folder and tell the game where to find them.

This lets you engage by slowly revealing them from behind a wall of procedurally generated bricks. After you've done that?

Export your photograph with a custom reveal based on how you revealed it, as an 8 second video you can share and post online. This is directly generated within the game:

Hours of content

Beyond the photography the game includes plenty of content alongside, and as a different way for you to enjoy its tactile meditative gameplay.

A 119 level campaign is built in, with most of the levels taking 2-5 minutes to complete; around 7 hours for a first pass through the full campaign but with the challenge settings changing how they play there's plenty of replayability even if you don't find yourself trying to beat your best time or highest score.

If that's not enough, an Infinite mode offers near limitless procedurally generated playfields for those 5 minute breaks from work when you want to relax. Bookmark and share your favourite random seeds, and compare your score and time against others on the daily seed.

Babysitter mode

It turns out children love watching the Idle mode, even though we put that in for adults. But it's more fun to engage with the game: The development team kept getting distracted from creating and testing the game because they found themselves caught by 'just complete this level.. ok, just one more'.

PhotoBricks is a quietly compelling game you'll keep returning to.
