Downloads

System Guided install Portable (no install)
Windows (x86_64) crackattack-2.0.0-beta.3-windows-x86_64-installer.exe crackattack-2.0.0-beta.3-windows-x86_64-portable.zip
macOS (Apple Silicon) crackattack-2.0.0-beta.3-macos-arm64-installer.dmg crackattack-2.0.0-beta.3-macos-arm64-portable.zip
Linux (x86_64) crackattack-2.0.0-beta.3-linux-x86_64.AppImage (single file, nothing to install) crackattack-2.0.0-beta.3-linux-x86_64-portable.tar.gz

The Windows installer needs no administrator rights; the macOS disk image holds the
app, to drag into Applications; the AppImage runs as is (make it executable first).
Archives: unpack anywhere and run. Your settings and scores are kept in your user folder.

macOS: the application is not signed by Apple, so macOS blocks it the first time:

  • macOS 15 or later: open Crack Attack.app once, then go to System Settings →
    Privacy & Security
    and click Open Anyway;
  • macOS 14 or earlier: right-click (or Control-click) Crack Attack.app, choose
    Open, then confirm;
  • or, from a terminal (adjust the path if the app is elsewhere):
    xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine "/Applications/Crack Attack.app"

Changes

Third beta of Crack Attack! — Back From The Stack.

  • Computer opponent on the grid: play against the computer in three levels (Easy,
    Medium, Hard), with a small preview of the opponent's board.
  • New menu graphics.
  • Network play: this version is not compatible with beta 2 (network protocol 4).
    The LAN list now shows players running another version greyed out as incompatible
    network version
    , and a failed connection says whose version of the game is older.
  • Updates screen: redesigned, with a single button to download the new version and an
    Automatic checks option.
  • Downloads: the files are now named -installer (macOS disk image, Windows installer,
    Linux AppImage) and -portable (plain archives).
  • Terminal version: the text version (crackattack-terminal, built from source) is
    redone: smooth movement, pause, danger bars and a summary at the end.

Packages installed from beta 2 keep their settings, scores and ranking.

This is a beta: please report problems on the issue tracker.
