Squid Adventures is one of the puzzle games in the Diemakora collection. It loads in seconds and needs nothing installed. Puzzle games such as Squid Adventures are about the moment of insight: you stare, you try, you notice the thing you missed, and suddenly the level is done. A few things the tags reveal: realistic-ish physics drive the fun: momentum, gravity and collisions behave consistently; it has touch controls and layouts made for phones and tablets; there is a journey with a beginning and an end rather than an endless score chase.

Tips and tricks
- Count. Tiles, moves, colours, matches — many puzzles are secretly arithmetic, and a quick count reveals the plan.
- Work backwards from the goal. Ask what the final state has to look like, then ask what the state before that must be.
- Do not memorise solutions, memorise principles. The level after this one will use the same idea in a new arrangement.
- 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.
