Blockhead II
_Blockhead 2_ is a puzzle game that is visually similar to it’s predecessor
but with a bit different gameplay. The game is still played from a top down
perspective but is less based on Sokoban although there is still some pushing
to do. The objective in each level is to collect a number of ingredients and
put them in a magic mixing pot. The ingredients can be picked up and carried
one by one to the pot but it is also possible to collect them by pushing or
pulling the pot over the ingredients.
There are four different ingredients and each have different properties. There
are green berries which do no harm, poisonous mushroom that decrease the
player’s energy points when carried, magic dust that accelerates the time when
carried and the skulls of death that will kill the player if picked up by
hand. The player can also lose lives by running out of energy or out of time.
In addition to the ingredients the player will also come across traps and
items. Items include axes that can clear out barricades, dynamite that can
destroy walls and magic wands that can be used to teleport the pot or the
player across the map.
