Pushover is a classic puzzle game published by Ocean Software for DOS in 1992. Playing as G.I. Ant, your objective across 100 levels is to rearrange various specialized dominoes so that a single push topples them all, ensuring the special trigger domino falls last to open the exit door.

How to play

Navigate the platforms, picking up and dropping dominoes to set up the perfect chain reaction before the timer runs out. Use the arrow keys to move G.I. Ant, the Spacebar to pick up or place a domino, and Enter to push the starting domino once your arrangement is complete.

Tips

Identify the trigger domino (the one with the stripes) first, as its position dictates where your chain reaction must end to open the exit.
Learn the behavior of special dominoes early; for instance, tumblers keep rolling across flat surfaces until they hit an obstacle, while splitters divide the chain reaction in two directions.
You can safely carry dominoes up and down ladders, but remember you have a time limit to complete your setup before Colin Curly runs out of patience.
