| How to play - Game |
|---|
|
When playing, you will see the screen like the left.
The upper side of screen is the area of status and the lower is the that of playing.
The left side is for the left side player and similarly the right is.
Following is the explanation to each objects in the screen.
The explanation contains the rules of "PuchoRe".
|
|
The colorfull spherical objects are called "Pucho".
They are pivots of this game.
Puchos have the nature that they stick together when they near each other, even if they are differently colored.
If three or more same colored Puchos have sticked successively, they vanish.
However the gray Puchos don't vanish in this condition exceptionally.
They vanish only when the sticked other colored Puchos vanish.
|
|
The white Pucho especially has gravity.
Puchos which don't link to the white Pucho are normaly attracted to it.
You can rotate the white Pucho.
By the rotatation, other linked Puchos also turn around it.
The rotation has little inertia.
|
|
Puchos are supplied from the lower of the screen in turn.
They are atracted to the white Pucho one by one.
You can strengthen the gravity of the white Pucho to hasten them to fall.
The Puchos which are to supply next stand by at the lower of the screen.
|
|
The gray ring shows the territory of each players.
If Puchos pile up beyond its range, the game becomes over.
It means loss in fight.
The white objects which have tails are called energy balls.
The energy balls arise when Puchos vanish, and they fly to the other side.
They can be canceled by the energy balls from the other side.
|
|
After an enegy ball touches the other side ring, it turns until it is canceled.
When you fall up the Pucho which fall from the lower
and also there are no energy balls anywhere except for on your ring,
The energy balls on your ring become gray Puchos and rain to your territory in turn.
|
|
On the upper of the center of the screen, you can see the fight mode.
In this case, it means "Auto" versus "Human".
Below it shows the additional situation.
There are 10 styles of the situation and it changes at random.
The number above the situation indication shows how many Puchos shoud fall up till the situation switches.
The situation change can be also known by the color change of back ground.
|
|
You can see the number of chain rank in the big circle on the upper of the screen.
Chain means that some Puchos' vanishments lead to another vanishments.
The bigger the number of chain rank, the more enegy balls arise at once.
By the way, when you choose "Human" and one of "Normal", "Few" and "Minute" at "Fight form setting screen",
the number of enegy balls which arise will decrease if no chain vanishment continues.
|
|
In the small circle on the corner, you can see the level of attack which you've set at "Fight form setting screen".
In this case, it means "Normal"
"vanish" means total number of Puchos which have vanished
and "attack" means number of enegy balls which have arised.
"score" is the measure of player's skill considered chain and so on.
But because it depend on how many times have been taken, it's not an absolute indicator.
|
|
When the game becomes over in left or right side, it means the fight is over.
The result of the fight will be displayed.
