How to play Barnyard Escape
Slide the horses and cows aside so the piglet can trot out of the gate.
The rules
- The piglet needs to reach the open gate on the right side of the barnyard.
- Horses take two squares and cows take three. Each animal slides only along its length: forward and back, never sideways.
- Drag an animal to slide it as far as it can go. Clear a path and the piglet trots out.
How to get started
- Look along the piglet's row: which animals stand between it and the gate?
- Each animal in the way must slide up or down out of that row. Check what blocks those animals in turn.
- Work backwards: to move an animal, first move whatever is in its way.
- Drag an animal along its lane to slide it. Undo takes back a move.
- Hint shows the best next move. Try to match the target number of moves.
A tip
Work backwards from the gate: find what blocks the piglet, then what blocks that animal, and clear the deepest blocker first.
