PumpUp Fugu

[ Tap it, and your PumpUp Fugu puffs right up ] Somewhere out at sea live the PumpUp Fugu — odd little creatures with one talent. Tap one and it puffs up in a huff, shoving aside whatever happens to be in the way. Use that to push the Fugu Queen out through the coral wall and set her free! Simple to play. Once you spot the trick, a level falls in seconds — but finding the trick is where the puzzle lives. An action physics puzzler with far more depth than it lets on. [ 160 hand-built levels ] Two areas, eight stages each, ten levels apiece. 160 in all, with room for newcomers and veterans alike. Clear a stage and the fugu dive deeper, where stranger creatures and stranger contraptions are waiting. Every level stays satisfying to solve — and every level asks a little more of you. [ Stars to collect, times to beat, reasons to come back ] Star-shaped starfish are scattered through the levels. You never need one to finish a stage, but they sit where only a cleverer solution can reach them. Clear a level once, then go back for the star. Your best time is kept for every level, every stage and every area. There is never only one way through a stage: change which fugu you tap, and when, and watch the clock come down. A stage you have already beaten is still worth replaying — for the star, or for the time. [ When you have solved them all ] Clear every level in Areas 1 and 2, and AREA 51 appears: stages built at random, endlessly. Because they are generated, some of them cannot be solved. Hit SHUFFLE and it builds you another. Long after Areas 1 and 2 are behind you, there are still stages waiting.
