I made a block puzzle where every line you clear becomes a poker hand — including ones that can't exist in real poker

Game Title: 7 Deck Crush: Card Block Puzzle

Platform: Android

Description:

7 Deck Crush is a block-placement puzzle with a poker twist. You drop pieces onto a 7x7 board and clear rows or columns like a classic block puzzle — but every cell is a playing card, and when you complete a line, the cards in it are scored as the best poker hand they form. So clearing a line isn't just about making space; you're deciding which line to finish and which cards to hold onto to chase a stronger hand and a higher score.

Because the board is 7 cells wide, a line holds 7 cards instead of 5, which opens up hands that can't exist in normal poker: Seven of a Kind, Seven Flush, Royal Full House, and extended straight flushes built from six or seven cards. There's a collection to fill with common and rare hands, plus strategic items like reroll, discard, and hold to bail you out of a tight board.

It's free, made by a small team, and very early. I'm mainly looking for honest feedback: is the "complete a line = reveal a poker hand" rule clear in the first minute, does it have enough decision-making to stay interesting, and where does it start to drag? I'll read and reply to every comment — please be blunt.
