Pyramids is the 7th level pack and has the highest maximum score of any pack in the game.
Pyramid is one of two level packs to feature wide board designs – be prepared to rotate your device when you start playing it.
The designs in Pyramids feature the most intricate wall patterns in the game, and unlike other packs the pattern of the design changes each set of 30 levels.
Levels 1-30 and 61-90 are based on the same pattern – each featuring 4 sets of steps (2 are connected in the center, forming the “pyramid”) which are 4 and 5 steps high respectively.
The designs for levels 31-60 and 91-120 are based on a simpler, larger pyramid pattern without the additional corner steps.
The design for levels 121-150 looks completely different from the others, but it is based on the first pattern only the “steps” are 3 tiles high x 3 tiles wide. It’s also our featured design.
If you’ve played the game in order – you might have felt like it got significantly easier from the end of Outside the Box and through most of Pyramids. The last pattern will remind you a bit of what’s to come – it’s sort of like a preview of the Bends pack, which also features levels that usually look much easier than they are!
Pyramids might be our favorite pack in the game. We love the variety and think each pattern produces beautiful solutions that offer many surprises without being overly difficult.
