How it plays

Bandit the raccoon found a bucket of popcorn and is carrying it home across the rooftops. The bucket leaks.

Step

Tap a ringed spot. Bandit crosses one plank and drops a kernel behind.

Watch

Pigeons hop toward the nearest kernel within three spots. Arrows show where each one goes next — and a pigeon whose path runs through Bandit snatches the bucket.

Lead

Walk a trail into a coop, or let two pigeons land on one kernel so they squabble and fly off. Then reach the glowing den.

Why it is different

The pigeons don't patrol and they don't chase you. They follow what you leave behind.

The twist

Your trail is their map

Every move you make changes where the pigeons go. Planning a route means planning theirs.

The clock

The bucket counts your steps

The number on the bucket is how many steps you have left. Get home with steps to spare for a full three-kernel score.

The pace

Short roofs, no rush

Roofs take a minute or three. No timer, no lives: try again as often as you like. 48 roofs in four chapters, from cinema roofs to windy vents.
