How to play
Choose Start Game. In Tutorial, hold the caterpillar head and drag it to a neighboring grid square, then release. Repeat from its new head position toward the matching colored cocoon.
Desktop mouse checked. Phone controls are distributor-listed, not tested here. Undo and Hint have limited uses.
Is this your kind of puzzle?
For mouse players who prefer tracing a route over keyboard box pushing, with a checked tutorial and recovery instructions.
Move the head, one square at a time
The head has eyes and antennae. Hold it, drag into an adjacent empty square, and release; begin the next drag at the head's new position. An accepted drag advances the move counter. The body follows the head, so do not try to draw straight through its occupied squares. In our tutorial run, the pink head entered the pink cocoon before we moved the blue one.
Take back an unwanted turn
Use Undo beneath the board after an accepted drag. In our check it restored the previous position and changed 1/20 moves back to 0/20, while its helper badge fell from 3 to 2. It is not unlimited. We did not test replenishing helpers or using Undo with none left. A Daily streak window interrupted our first attempt; Close returned us to the board without claiming the reward.
Retry a route or ask for a hint
Retry restored the initial caterpillar positions and reset our move counter from 1/20 to 0/20. It did not refill the spent helpers: Hint and Undo still showed 2. Hint displayed a colored ring on the board and reduced its badge from 3 to 2; it did not automatically move the head. We have not checked whether every hint leads to the shortest solution.
Tutorial: a 12-move route — spoiler
Use this only on the initial five-by-five Tutorial board, with pink starting on the left and blue on the right. Pink: up 1, right 4, down 1 into the pink cocoon. Blue: down 1, left 4, up 1 into the blue cocoon. Drag one square per move from the current head. Our run showed 12/20, best 12 ✓, then Solved! and Tutorial chapter cleared. This is a verified route, not a claim about all levels.
