Block
A block is a cubic components of a world in The Blockheads. A blockhead can rearrange the blocks to change the world.
To place a block, select the desired block in the inventory, then tap the place on the screen where the block should be placed.
To remove a block, tap on the block to be removed. The blockhead will travel to the spot and commence deconstruction. The removal process takes more time if a blockhead isn't using the appropriate tool (the item selected when tapping on the block to remove).
Most blocks are solid and prevent a blockhead from moving through them. They can be climbed or walked on.
If a blockhead starts removing a solid block, it will slowly become partially transparent but remain solid until completely broken; meaning it's possible to make solid blocks look invisible - though only at a glance - using back walls to disguise the little parts of the blocks that still exist.
