Place the blocks strategically, surround the pig, and solve the clever logic puzzle before it escapes the grid!
Block the Pig is a simple, yet highly addictive and challenging logic puzzle game that focuses on tactical strategy and predictive movement. The objective is to prevent an escaped pig (who moves one tile at a time) from running off the edge of a hexagonal grid by strategically placing blocks on the open hexes. The challenge is immense because the pig is agile and always chooses the most efficient path to escape the grid, forcing you to think several steps ahead to anticipate its movement. The gameβs strong point is the satisfying feeling of cracking the pig's movement pattern and trapping it with a perfectly placed block. What sets Block the Pig Unbanned apart is the focus on defensive sequencing; every block placement must be a calculated move that limits the pig's immediate options. The comparison is strong to simple board games like Chinese Checkers or complex logic puzzles. A crucial strategic tip is to always prioritize placing blocks that cut off the two most direct escape routes (often the straight line to the edge and the diagonal exit); forcing the pig toward the center of the board is the key to victory.
Playing Block the Pig Unbanned is simple: use your mouse to click on an empty hex to place a block. The pig moves one hex after each block placement. The core strategy is edge isolation. Focus your early moves on placing blocks near the perimeter of the grid to cut off the pig's easiest routes to the edge. Try to surround the pig as closely as possible, limiting its escape options to one or two hexes, allowing you to easily trap it on the next turn. Block the Pig Unbanned is an excellent, Unbanned choice for puzzle fans who love a strategic challenge that rewards patient, logical, and highly predictive thinking.
