Push your way to victory — one clever shove at a time. PULOG is a push-based logic puzzle with two very different ways to play: outthink an opponent in the strategic Classic game, or lose yourself in the fast, endless solo puzzling of Crusher Mode -- now with diagonal move and tutorials. The classic game had a major overhaul as well, with smooth moves and a much better underlying logic. CLASSIC PULOG — Outsmart, don't out-click • Push a row or column from the edge to slide your stones toward the open space — but only if you hold the majority there. • The board rewards planning: every move shifts exactly one space, so nothing is ever left to chance. • Surround the red stone on all four sides with your color to win. • Play against a friend, or take on an AI that actually plans ahead. • Rewind any move with the Steps counter, or shuffle up a brand new board with Randomize. CHALLENGE MODE — Six AI, six mountains • Face all six AI difficulty levels back-to-back, each one tougher than the last. • No undo, no bailing out partway — beat them all, or start over. • New music unlocks as you climb, with something special waiting at the top. CRUSHER MODE — NEW! Push, match, chase the high score • A solo puzzle, no opponent: push any stone in any direction and watch it — and its neighbors — go flying until it hits something. • Line up 3 or more matching stones to crush them for points. Chain reactions feel great. • Colors ease in gradually, wave by wave, until the full board is in play. • Clear every color and only the red stone remains — burst it for a bonus, bigger the faster you clear the board. • It never really ends: waves keep coming, and your score keeps climbing until you decide to stop. • Watch for the occasional hazard stone — it visibly cracks under pressure as its countdown ticks toward zero. • Fast fingers? Push more than one stone at once. • Chase your best runs on the High Scores list and Game Center leaderboard. No timers pressuring you between sessions, no pay-to-win — just push-based puzzling, your way.
