Inside the game
You are a mouth in the ground. Move along it and swallow everything in the way: cacti, rocks, trees and crates.
People are the exception. Swallowing a person loses the level. Each puzzle links to the one before it, and every new chapter adds new tricks.
Hands on the game

- Click and dragMove with the mouse or touch
Before the first run
- Look for people on the level before you move; swallowing one ends the attempt.
- Cacti, rocks, trees and crates are all safe to swallow.
- Expect each puzzle to build on the previous one and use what it taught.
- When a new chapter starts, look for the new trick before repeating old moves.

Honest drawbacks
- Poki, where the game opens, shows advertising of its own.
- Because every puzzle links to the previous one, starting from the middle is harder to follow.
