ZUP series is a simple arcade style puzzle game. The red balls and blocks are bombs. The goal is to help the blue ball pass and fall into the Green lawn in box like structure. Yellow blocks, balls help you achieve it pushing the blue ball. You need figure the sequence of which red bomb to blow when to trigger a series of events that push the blue ball to it's green goalpost. Most of it is easy simple taking seconds. Some may take more time couple of minutes to figure out. Some puzzles in later games may have moving objects you need time so your moving yellow, blue items don't hit obstructing moving blocks. Later they introduce teleporters and parallel locks that block your progress by sending balls across puzzle or blocking them. The locks and teleporters must be removed or activated as such in precise sequence of blowing kickstart bombs to pave way for the hero blue ball. In this game some puzzles have reverse logic the green box lawn to collect the blue ball is upside down and acts like a magnet drawing the ball from under if the correct sequence is triggered. 80% game is easy taking few seconds to a minute. BUT some puzzles in last 30% proved a bit irritating as they would not follow correct order and pressure overshooting or falling short. This is the 9th game in the series and frankly by now its getting tediously boring. Same old patterns, puzzles, mechanics. Each game has 40-50 puzzles so by now playing played over 400 puzzles you can imagine. I really now wish these games had a Hentai like shortcut keys to auto solve move to next. Playing for easy achievements is fine, but I do not know if I can finish playing all 22 games I own. Game took less than 2 hours to finish. probably need 2.5 hours more to get all cards. This game has 770 achievements. In other games they can reach upto 3000. I may watch a video guide and try to end the formalities in the remaining 13 games. Its way too much. There are achievements for clicking everything on Menu including game title, question mark, any shape on screen in Menus and quitting game also. Decent time pass though later games with same repeat patterning will get boring. Most of ZUP-QOP have trading cards easy thousands of achievements buy whole pack having nearly 22 games I think, cheap at sale.

This game is really great for getting achievements. Other than that, it is pretty basic. Pretty easy. Small download, could possibly be played on an actual potato. Enjoyed the unique levels and game mechanics. 9/10

If you're a fan of puzzles and achievements, you've come to the right place ! *** All ZUP Games have cool Puzzles + Trading Cards + a lot of working achievments *** + Successes are letters in different colors that you can ideally use for profile design --> If you have the option, buy them all in a bundle to save money. You won't regret it
