Smash Master

Mission briefing

Smash Master is a fun 3D physics-based puzzle game where players use a cannon to smash and knock down stacked objects. Carefully aim at weak points, fire the cannonball, and create satisfying chain reactions as crates, barrels, jars, fruits, and other objects crash to the ground. Each level introduces a new structure and challenge, while the limited number of shots encourages players to think before firing.

Field manual

Aim the cannon at the stacked objects. Find the weakest or most effective target point. Tap or release to fire the cannonball. Use physics and chain reactions to knock down multiple objects. Complete the required objective before running out of shots. Clear the level and move on to the next challenging structure.

Launch orders: press Launch mission above and the game loads on this page itself — nothing downloads and no form stands between you and the first move. It is designed for a portrait (upright) screen and takes its orders from mouse, keyboard or touch, depending on the mission. It is built tall, for an upright screen — a phone held normally frames it best, though any window will run it. If it offers a fullscreen control, use it — a fight this size deserves the whole screen.

Field notes for shooting operations

• Short bursts beat long ones. Recoil, spread and plain panic all grow the longer you hold the trigger; three controlled shots land where one long spray writes poetry on the wall behind your target.
• Reload behind something. The reload animation is the most dangerous second in any shooter — spend it behind cover, mid-jump, or not at all if the magazine still has work in it.
• Sound is intelligence. Footsteps, reload clicks and distant fire tell you where the fight is before the screen does; play with the volume up and treat every noise as a map marker.

Can I run Smash Master on a phone or tablet?

Yes. It plays in the browser on phones and tablets exactly as it does on a computer. It is built tall, for an upright screen — a phone held normally frames it best, though any window will run it.
