Games of my childhood: Pushover

Today’s text is opening a series of articles about games from my childhood. Nowadays I do not have time for playing games, because of work and other hobbies. These articles are full of personal nostalgia. Let
me share the nostalgia with you. Today I’ll start with the game Pushover.

This game was released by Ocean in 1992 for PC with MS-DOS. I got the game in 1993. The game offered a very cute graphics and the sound through the PC speaker was good. The main character that is controled by you is the Ant that passes through the levels with increasing difficulty.

The goal of each level is to put all the cubes together. It sounds simple, but the higher levels are really tricky. There are several types of blocks with special properties.

And finally the best: we can now play Pushover again on Linux and Windows, thanks to Andreas Röver and Volker Grabsch.

Warning: The following video is also a guide for the first few levels.
Watch till the end and you will lose all the fun!
