Indians Family 1.0 for iOS – Very Challenging, Physics-Based Puzzle Game

Applistar today is pleased to introduces Indians Family 1.0 for iOS, their game where players try to figure out how a family can safely traverse a natural obstacle, getting from the far left to the far right of the screen. Featuring three natural environments and 60 puzzle levels, the correct solutions are likely to tax the creativity and resourcefulness of even the most ardent gameplayer. Each physics-based solution requires careful thought, patient experimentation, and flawless execution. Players control the movements of the father, mother, and daughter, who are all of different weights and sizes, a fact that is vital to solving each puzzle.
Abu and his wife, Ber, and their daughter, June are trying to find their way home. Along the way, they must go over, under, or through natural obstacles in their path. The player can select each character, and control their movement left, right, and up. For example, in Level 1 the family is on the left side of a gorge and must cross to the other side. Can they run and jump? There is a trapeze swinging back and forth over the gorge. Can each of them manage to successfully jump on, swing across, and jump off? Can they build momentum while on the trapeze to carry them closer to the other side? Should they cross singly or as a group? The player will find the answer to all these questions along the way to getting everyone across. There are no hints and no solutions available; and only the first three levels are unlocked.
An old elementary school riddle asks the question, “A man who weighs 200 pounds has a rowboat. How can he and his two friends, who weigh 100 pounds each, all cross the river, if the boat can only carry 200 pounds?” Many of the puzzles in Indians Family require this type of thinking, but in a much more complex way. The puzzles in the game include levers, swings, planes, stacking of people and objects, collisions, ramrods, spheres, rotors, and more. All the action takes place in one of three settings, the Jungle, the Desert, and the Arctic, and so all objects in each puzzle are native to their environment.
