The Nest is a puzzle game where you guide the bird and eliminate every swine in the layout. To complete a level, make the swine collide with the ground, a saw obstacle, or travel beyond the play area. Careful planning matters: using fewer taps can help you earn three stars.
The Nest gameplay basics
Each puzzle contains a bird, one or more swine, and blocks or sticks that affect the layout. Tap the bird or a swine to change them. Green blocks and sticks can also be removed with a tap, while stone-grey blocks and sticks cannot be removed.
The objective is to get all the swine out of the layout using the available objects and obstacles. Before making a move, look at where each character is positioned and identify which removable pieces may be stopping or redirecting its path.
How to play The Nest
- Review the layout. Locate the bird, every swine, the ground, the saw obstacle, and any pieces that can be removed.
- Choose a target. Decide which swine you want to move and which permitted outcome—contact with the ground or saw, or leaving the layout—will clear it.
- Tap to make a change. Tap the bird or a swine to switch them. Tap a green block or stick to eliminate it. Remember that stone-grey pieces stay in place.
- Check what changed. After each action, assess the new positions before tapping again. This helps avoid unnecessary moves.
You can play by tapping the screen or clicking with a mouse. On a touch device, tap the intended object directly; with a mouse, click it once. If an action does not produce the result you expected, pause and reassess the remaining obstacles and available pieces.
Tips for earning three stars
- Plan before removing pieces. A green block or stick may be supporting or obstructing part of the layout. Consider how removing it could affect the swine’s route.
- Use the fixed pieces as part of your plan. Stone-grey blocks and sticks cannot be deleted, so account for their positions instead of spending moves trying to remove them.
- Aim for the required collision or exit. Each swine needs to reach the ground, the saw obstacle, or a point beyond the layout. Focus on those outcomes rather than making unrelated changes.
- Keep taps to a minimum. The game encourages completing the puzzle with as few taps as feasible. Avoid experimenting with extra actions when a simple sequence may work.
Conclusion
The Nest combines character switching and removable green pieces in compact obstacle puzzles. Identify the swine’s possible routes, remember that stone-grey pieces are fixed, and use taps or mouse clicks deliberately. A little planning can help clear every swine while keeping the number of actions low and working toward three stars.
