Push the pyramids. YANKAI'S PEAK is all about pushing the pyramids into their proper positions. Using just the blue pyramid, you must figure out how to get the other ones into their proper spots. It looks simple, but it's harder than you think.

The level selection is a puzzle itself. The level select screen in YANKAI'S PEAK is unique in the fact that it works like a level itself. Get into the blue spaces and be warped into a stage with a distinctive layout and theme. You have to clear the stages to get rid of the blue spaces on the chapter, and once all are done, you'll be able to move on to the next one.

Don't lose your pyramids. Gravity still exists in YANKAI'S PEAK, so watch out for the edges! If you lose a pyramid, you'll have to undo your last move or start over in order to solve the puzzle.

What is it about?

The visuals in YANKAI’S PEAK are stunningly beautiful, and while it looks simple at first, it is rather distinctive and unlike many other games in the puzzle genre. The game features gorgeous, softly-colored gradient backgrounds that make it easy to see the triangles and pyramids that sit on top in the foreground. The stages are all made up of connected triangles that form a path, and there are even intricate geometric patterns on the colored triangles, which are the spots that you must position the colored pyramids into. The shading on the pyramids is done excellently, so it’s easy to tell the pyramids apart from the triangles. The color palette in YANKAI’S PEAK is well done, as it includes soft pastels, muted earthy tones, and even bold and vibrant hues. All-in-all, everything is rather eye-catching and appealing. To top things off, YANKAI’S PEAK has a soothing ambient soundtrack (composed by [JACK+JIM](https://soundcloud.com/jackandjim)) that is rather mesmerizing and immersive, and it only completes the zen-like experience.
