What makes a good puzzle game? Usually a gentle but real difficulty curve, hints or undo options and a calm pace — and Hippo Dentist has each of them in some measure. Playing it works your planning and planning, which is a large part of why the "one more round" feeling is so strong.
How to play Hippo Dentist
- Start by clicking the big play button. Hippo Dentist loads inside the frame; give it a moment, especially on a slow connection.
- Follow the on-screen prompts. The developer describes the controls like this: Mouse or tap to play
- Read the whole level before your first move. Identify the goal, then look for the forced moves that must happen regardless.
- Use the full-screen button under the frame for the best view, and keep an eye on the score, timer or health display so you know what the game is asking of you.
Controls
The controls in Hippo Dentist are straightforward once you have seen them written down:

Tips and tricks
- Work backwards from the goal. Ask what the final state has to look like, then ask what the state before that must be.
- Use undo or restart freely. Experimenting is how you learn the mechanics; there is no penalty for trying an idea.
- Read the whole board before your first move. In most puzzle games the first move is the most important one, and it deserves ten seconds of looking.
- Play with sound on if the game has it; audio cues often confirm a correct move before the animation finishes.
- Because this is a Kids game, younger children do better with a mouse or touch screen than with keyboard combinations.
- Because this is a Girls game, take your time with creative choices; there is rarely a wrong answer in this kind of game.
