If you've failed (and you will), the bridge will break under the weight of the elephants, sending them plummeting and sending you back to the drawing board. When you think you might have a workable solution, you cross your fingers and push the start button to release the elephants. The game lets you zoom in to get a close look at certain parts of the structure and zoom out to take in the whole level.
Typically, you'll have some right triangles and some cross braces to work with, each of which you can rotate and place as you see fit. The number and variety of pieces at your disposal varies from level to level. You'll build a support structure for a bridge from an assortment of pieces, trying to make smart use of the anchor points provided on each level. Because it gives you as much time as you need (and you'll probably need a lot, at least at first), it typically moves at a pretty slow pace. Although the concept is simple, Elefunk is anything but easy.Įlefunk is a game that relies heavily on trial and error. Using the limited pieces available to you on each level, you've got to figure out how to support the bridges the elephant and his friends must cross as they make their way through the game's 20 levels. Unfortunately, the bridges he must cross along the way just can't hold his weight.
When he awakes and discovers what's happened, the elephant begins his long journey to the big top to rescue his family. As a young elephant sleeps, the rest of his herd is captured by a villainous circus ringleader. This combination poses quite a predicament, and in tasking you with designing a solution to the problem, Elefunk provides an unusual, challenging experience that will try your patience but is also very rewarding.Įlefunk will put your civil engineering skills to the test.Ī series of illustrations sets the stage for the game's main single-player mode, called Puzzle mode. Heavy elephants encounter flimsy bridges time and time again in 8bit Games' new puzzler, Elefunk.
