Magnet Mayhem
Switch magnetic polarity, attract coins, repel bombs, and chain combos for a high score. One button, real physics, pure chaos.
What Is Magnet Mayhem?
Magnet Mayhem is a free browser-based physics arcade game built around one mechanic: switch your core's magnetic polarity between ATTRACT and REPEL to pull coins and crystals toward you while pushing dangerous bombs away. Every object in the arena reacts to real magnetic force in real time, so a single well-timed switch can pull in a whole cluster of coins at once, or save you from a bomb closing in a split second too late. It's a one-button, one-thumb game that's easy to understand in seconds and hard to put down.
How to Play Magnet Mayhem
- Your magnetic core sits near the center of the arena. Objects spawn and drift around you.
- Press Space, click, or tap anywhere to switch between ATTRACT and REPEL — there's no other control to learn.
- In ATTRACT mode, nearby coins and crystals are pulled toward your core. Let them touch you to collect them and score.
- In REPEL mode, objects — including bombs — are pushed away. Use it to keep a getting-too-close bomb at a safe distance.
- Collecting coins and crystals back-to-back builds a combo, multiplying every point you score afterward.
- Pulling in several valuable objects almost simultaneously triggers a MAGNET CHAIN — the bigger the chain, the bigger the score burst.
- Reach a x10 combo to trigger a GOLD RUSH: a rare Golden Coin worth up to 2,000 points appears.
- The arena gets busier and faster the longer you survive, eventually reaching CHAOS MODE — stay alive as long as you can for the highest score.

Leaderboard
Every run ends with the option to save your score under a nickname to Game CMB's global Magnet Mayhem leaderboard. Scores are checked server-side before they appear publicly, and you can filter the board by All-Time, This Week, or Today. If you're outside the visible Top 100, your own rank is still shown separately — you'll always know exactly where you stand.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Magnet Mayhem free to play?
Yes. Magnet Mayhem is completely free to play in your browser on Game CMB, with no download, purchase, or account required.
How do I play Magnet Mayhem?
Press Space, click, or tap anywhere to switch your magnetic core between ATTRACT and REPEL. Use ATTRACT to pull coins and crystals toward you, and REPEL to push dangerous bombs away before they get too close.
Can I play Magnet Mayhem on my phone?
Yes. Magnet Mayhem is fully responsive and mobile-first — tap anywhere on the screen to switch polarity, with no dragging or multi-touch required.
What happens if a bomb touches me?
Contact with an armed bomb ends your run immediately. You can use REPEL to push bombs away before they get close, turning danger into risk-and-reward gameplay instead of something to simply avoid.
How does the combo and Magnet Chain system work?
Collecting coins and crystals back-to-back builds your combo, raising a score multiplier up to x5. Pulling several objects in at almost the same moment triggers a Magnet Chain with a bonus score popup — the bigger the chain, the bigger the reward.
Is there a leaderboard?
Yes. After each run you can save your score with a nickname to the global leaderboard, with Today / This Week / All-Time views and your own rank shown even if you land outside the Top 100.
Do I need an account to save my score?
No. You only need to enter a nickname when saving a score — no email, password, or sign-up required.
