The Block is the world's smallest city builder. Place randomly generated buildings on a square and build up a tiny but perfectly formed city block! It's a very small game - more of a tiny little toy with no goals or challenges - hence the very small price :)

Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0/day in the week to Jul 25 → 0/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Reviews
Je ne comprends pas les reviews de gens déçus qui voulaient "plus de bâtiments" et trouvent le jeu "trop minimaliste". Absolument tout est en description et visible en vidéo et photos avant d'acheter. L'expérience est décrite comme "un très petit jeu" et "le plus petit simulateur de ville du monde", et c'est exactement ce qu'on a. Les vidéos montrent l'intégralité de ce qui peut être fait. Les photos montrent les bâtiments et donc leur absence de diversité. Vous avez tous été prévenu ! Si vous voulez des plus grandes maps et plein de bâtiments différents, allez jouer au mode bac à sable d'Islanders mais ne venez pas pourrir la note de ce jeu parce que vous n'avez pas pris 2 minutes pour consulter la page avant d'acheter...
Very calming, good thing to play if you're feeling stressed

doodling on a piece of paper more creative than this
Really cute!
Not much in the game, I'd say buy it on sale if it looks interesting to you. Could use an update adding more structures and things. Maybe having little people wander around when you finish the build would be good
cute game, but wish there were a few achievements or simple goals
Rzeczywiście jest to najmniejszy city builder. Ale niekoniecznie coś budzi się w nim do życia
[h3]Overdone minimalism does [url=store.steampowered.com/app/1995590/The_Block/]The Block[/url] a huge disservice.[/h3] Sold as a tiny toy, it would be more accurately described as an early prototype that simply does not have the level of polish expected of a commercial release, no matter how modest. Check out the developer's more satisfying [url=store.steampowered.com/app/1506510/The_Ramp/]The Ramp[/url] toy instead, or [url=store.steampowered.com/app/1291340/Townscaper/]Townscaper[/url] for a truly relaxing and creative small city building experience. [h3]Positive[/h3] [list] [*] Nice colors [*] Nice logo [/list] [h3]Negative[/h3] [list] [*] Clunky camera controls and general interface [*] Unnecessarily noisy pixels tarnish otherwise pleasant retro style [*] Lacks content with so very few pieces and only 5 square formats [*] Seen everything there is to it in 10 minutes [*] Unable to pick skins (a minor variation is assigned on plan creation) [*] Pieces come randomly (user must cycle through) [/list]
I love this lil sandbox builder when I just want to click my screen and have things happen
