Kablooey!

Kablooey! is a compact puzzle game from Vertigo Gaming that takes the timeless pleasure of making things explode and turns it into a matter of careful planning. Instead of simply charging around and causing chaos, you need to understand the layout, manipulate objects and figure out how to trigger explosions in the right way. The game rewards observation and experimentation, with later challenges requiring considerably more thought than its cheerful presentation might suggest. It has that wonderfully old-fashioned puzzle-game quality where the rules are easy to grasp but finding the correct solution can leave you staring at the screen for an embarrassingly long time. If you enjoy short, clever indie games that make your brain work without taking themselves too seriously, Kablooey! is worth investigating.
