About

Unpin Please

Features
Read full description

Unpin Please is a puzzle game about taking plates off a board. Each plate is held by one screw. Drag the plate along its slot and the screw slides toward the open end. When it gets there the plate comes loose. Get every plate loose and the level is done. The part that makes it a puzzle is that loose plates don't disappear. They stay on the board and you have to move them around by hand. If you free the wrong plate first, it ends up sitting in the way of the next one, and there's no putting a screw back. So you have to think about the order, and about where you leave things. Levels start simple and get pretty tight. Later on the board is almost full and the last few plates only come out if everything else has been pushed into exactly the right spot. Features: - Boards in lots of shapes: corridors, rooms with doors, crosses, spirals, rings - Plates of different sizes, including long ones and bent ones that turn as they slide - Some levels are built on a diagonal, with angled walls and angled plates - You can slide a plate part way and leave it there, which is often the trick - A timer on each level - Every level has a solution. Nothing is random and nothing depends on luck If you like sliding block puzzles or unblock-style games and want something with a bit more going on, give it a try.

Sandy Snakes

Drag your snakes, drain the sand, and clear the board! Trays packed with colored sand fill the grid, and hungry snakes are coiled between them. Drag a snake by any part of its body, thread it through the gaps, and bring its head to sand of its own color โ€” it swallows the grains on contact. Every route you pick decides whether the board empties or clogs. What's inside: Grid puzzle with real space pressure: Every cell matters. Snakes are solid to each other, so the room you leave yourself is the puzzle. Drag, thread, slurp: Grab any segment and pull. The whole snake follows your finger, head first, through gaps barely wide enough. Sand that falls: Empty a column and the sand above it pours down. What was out of reach a second ago is suddenly right under your head. Match your colors: Each snake only eats its own color, and only carries enough hunger for its share. Waste it and the board can't be cleared.Beat the clock: The timer is always running. Plan fast, drag faster. Explore new worlds: Clear stages, unlock new layouts, and face boards that get tighter with every level. Easy to learn, tough to master: One finger, one rule โ€” then find out how much puzzle fits in a single grid. Think you can find the path that empties the whole board?
