Can Stacker

Stack cans as high as you can!

Drop swinging aluminum cans from a crane onto a growing tower. Time your release so each can overlaps the one below. Land with 88%+ overlap for a PERFECT bonus, or less for a standard score. Miss badly and the game is over. Each successful drop trims the width, making the tower progressively thinner and the timing more critical.

About Can Stacker

Can Stacker is a free online timing game where a crane swings an aluminum can back and forth, and you drop it onto the can below at exactly the right moment. Overlap 88 percent or more for a PERFECT bonus, and less overlap scores standard points. Every successful drop trims the effective width of the stack, making the timing window shrink with each can. A single bad drop and the tower topples.

How to Play Can Stacker

• Watch the crane swing the can horizontally.
• Press space or tap to drop the can.
• Aim for 88 percent or more overlap for PERFECT bonus.
• Watch the column narrow with each drop.
• Build the tallest stack before a miss ends the run.

Features

• Physics-tuned crane swing with consistent timing.
• Overlap-based scoring with PERFECT bonus at 88%+.
• Tower width reduction on partial overlap.
• Endless vertical scoring.

Tips and Strategy

• Watch the swing for two full cycles before your first drop.
• Early drops shape the rest of the run. A slim early can kills the ceiling.
• Tap rhythm beats eyeballing late-game swings.
• If you miss PERFECT by a hair, accept it. Miscorrecting costs more.
