Evaluation

Approaching Blocks launched on June 3, 2016 as a small casual game with a fixed set of content: 5 levels, 13 dictionaries, achievements, and trading cards. A bug fix patch followed on June 7, 2016, and that is the last update directly related to this game. The developer's news channel has since been used exclusively to announce separate, unrelated games from the same studio — including MOMO.EXE VR (August 2020), Self-Isolation (December 2020), GIRL.EXE (June 2021), and GIRL.EXE.EXE (July 2025). None of these posts reference any new content planned for Approaching Blocks. The store description is consistent with a game that shipped as a complete, self-contained package. No DLC was ever listed, no roadmap was ever published, and no developer statement has indicated any intention to add further content to this title.

Evidence

Store description lists a fixed content set: 5 levels, 13 dictionaries, achievements, and trading cards — no mention of planned additions or updates.
