Game types
Build your favorite pets in all shapes and sizes, keep ahead of dropping pieces and make it to the next level. There are several game play types to choose from:
- Long Pet: Complete progressively longer pets to reach the next level.
- Tails Cleanup: Clear all tails off the screen per level
- Crunch-up: Keep ahead as the screen crunches upward and new pets appear
- Level Up: Classic level-up style
- Marathon: For the long distance player
Head-to-Head 2 player
On real hardware and emulators you can play 2-Player link vs mode for any level (Crunch-up recommended).
Send crunch-ups to your opponent when you complete long pets or level-up. The last player standing wins the match.
