Charming Head-Smasher ‘Pukk’ Is Coming Next Month

TouchArcade Rating:

Pukk is a game about literally losing your head…and then being a head that slides around and smashes things. It’s silly and charming in that way. According to the developers in our Upcoming Games forum thread, Pukk is a Nordic treasure hunter, a head that glides around the polar ice smashing ice blocks and all kinds of containers as it tries and grab as much treasure as it can. And, as you can imagine, you use that treasure to buy even cooler helmets for that poor head of yours and then proceed to go on smashing some more. As you can see from the trailer, you will bang (head-banging, get it?) that head from wall to wall, which is bound to give you a huge headache.

And you can’t just bang your head with impunity; there’s a cute polar bear that would just love to give that head of yours a huge, loving hug until your eyes pop out. So, you’ll have to both grab all those treasures and avoid that bear, just like when you try to avoid those avalanches in Ski Safari. Pukk is very charming and should be quite fun to play. The game will release next month, and you can read more about it in our forum thread.

      Silver lining: I’m getting more out of older games after the Apocalypse than I ever did before! True, some don’t yet work (surprisingly fewer than expected) and some never will again. But the MANY old games that do get updated are popping up in my Updates list and reminding me to play them again! Or for the first time, if I’d never gotten around the them.

      No question, I’m spending more time playing older games than I would have if Apple had stayed with 32-bit forever.

      Now I need to remember to thank them all with star ratings.

      I've updated my iPad but not my iPhone, and just have to say, of the hundreds of games I'll be losing to iOS 11, I was very concerned about losing this one - can't tell you how happy I am that it has been updated !!!
