Cover Orange: Wild West is a physics puzzle game about keeping cheerful oranges dry. A bad-tempered storm cloud in a cowboy hat drifts over a cartoon desert town, and you have to build shelter before the rain reaches them. Each level is a short puzzle with wooden crates, ropes and wagon wheels to work with.
How to play
Each level starts with one or more oranges sitting on wooden frames. Objects such as crates hang at the top of the screen. Click to drop them, and a pair of dotted lines shows where each one will land. Once everything is placed, the storm cloud arrives and rains down. Any orange left uncovered gets hit and floats away with a halo, so you need to try the level again.
When every orange stays safe you see a results screen with up to three stars and your score. From there you can replay the level, go to the level list or move on to the next one.
Controls
- Mouse click: drop the object hanging at the top of the screen
- Finger (touch): tap to play on a phone or tablet, according to the developer
Tips
- Watch the dotted guide lines below each object before you click. They show exactly where it will fall.
- Make sure each orange has a solid roof over it. Rain can drift sideways, so a cover that only half fits may not be enough.
- Look out for things like wheels and ropes. They can roll or tip, so think about where they will end up before you drop them.
- If an orange gets hit, use the restart button in the bottom-right corner to try again straight away.
Who it's for
Good for younger players and families who like calm, bite-sized puzzles. The first levels are simple, but later ones with rolling wheels and slopes need more planning.
