And thanks @Boardumb for that otherwise I would’ve skipped it for sure. I mean, game mechanics aren’t anything new nor groundbreaking, but - oh my god - the level design is so clever! Going for each star is quite fun so far (halfway through) and I hope it stays that way instead turning into frustration. Cause I can’t proceed further unless I got the star. I mean I could but I won’t because I can’t. And I love the fact there are levels I can go 2 or 3 moves below the required value. Doesn’t feel like there’s only one and only solution for each level which honestly is priceless in this genre. Anyway, don’t skip this game. That’d be a shame! Boardumb likes this.

Like this one – what’s the logic here??

The minus blocks take a coin away, so the solution is to find the proper path that you'll end up with 3 coins so that when you land on the very last minus block in front of the exit you'll end up with 2 coins and the gate will open. There are a lot of levels that use the coins/gates mechanic. (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
