About the Game

A rack, a tray and three dishes at a time

Dishwasher Blocks is a block puzzle set inside a mid-century dishwasher. Three pieces of kitchenware wait in the tray: plates, cups, tumblers, pitchers, a cutlery basket and the odd soup tureen. Drag each one into the rack and find it a place.

Fill a row or a column and it rinses away. Fill one of the four tinted corners and that clears too. Clear several at once, or on back-to-back moves, and the points add up quickly.

The rack is small and the shapes don't rotate, so every placement matters. The run ends when nothing in the tray fits. Then it's one more load, and another go at your best score.

  • Endless

    No levels and no timer: one run until the rack is full.

  • Vintage

    Glazed dinnerware in sage, blue, terracotta and mustard.

  • Private

    No accounts, ads, analytics or tracking.

How to Play

  1. 1Drag

    Drag a piece from the tray into the rack. A preview shows where it will land.

  2. 2Fill

    Fill a row, a column or one of the four tinted 3×3 corners to wash it clean.

  3. 3Combine

    Clear several at once, or on back-to-back moves, for bonus points.

  4. 4Make room

    A new set of three arrives when all three are placed. The run ends when nothing fits.

One dishwasher tablet. Every player gets a single tablet. Save it for when you're stuck: it rinses a 3×3 patch of the rack and might buy a few more moves. Once it's used, it's gone.
