Released for the Game Boy in 1990 by Seta, Q Billion is a challenging logic puzzle game that puts you in control of an enterprising mouse. The goal of the game is to systematically reduce stacks of blocks scattered across a grid until every square is exactly one block high.
How to Play
Use the D-pad (Arrow Keys) to move your mouse around the grid. To manipulate the playfield, you must push blocks off the tops of stacks using the A and B buttons (Z and X keys). The core mechanic requires you to be standing on a stack that is exactly one level lower than the target stack in order to push a block off it. Press Start (Enter) to pause the game.
Tips
- Plan your route: Because you need precise height differences to push blocks, always think several steps ahead to ensure you do not trap yourself on a stack you cannot push from.
- Start from the highest peaks: Focus on breaking down the tallest stacks first, using the intermediate stacks as stepping stones to reach them.
