Released by Gottlieb in 1982, this classic isometric puzzle-platformer brings the authentic coin-op experience to your browser with the US Set 2 arcade ROM. You control the iconic round, orange protagonist as he hops around a 3D pyramid made of cubes, attempting to change their top colours while avoiding a cast of bizarre enemies.
How to play
Your goal is to change the colour of every cube on the pyramid to the target colour by jumping on them. Once all cubes are changed, you advance to the next round. Use the arrow keys to move diagonally across the pyramid. Avoid enemies like the bouncing red balls that turn into Coily the snake, and Ugg and Wrongway who travel sideways. You can escape Coily by jumping onto the colourful flying discs near the edge, which transport you safely back to the top of the pyramid.
Tips
- Lure Coily off the edge: The safest way to handle Coily is to wait near a flying disc. Let him get close, then jump on the disc. He will follow you and fall off the pyramid, temporarily clearing the screen.
- Slick and Sam: These green enemies revert the colour of the cubes you have already changed. Prioritize catching them to stop them from undoing your work and to earn bonus points.
