Path logic puzzles games are all about figuring out the right order of operations to direct characters along pathways. These games often use switches and other triggers along the path that you need to hit at the right time to clear the path forward. There are often enemies and obstacles that also need to be interacted with delicate movement along the pathway. Since you can't stray from paths, you really need to think within the confines of the level layout to deal with the puzzle challenge.

“This game hasn’t made me think so hard compared to any other game on the App Store.” – The APPera
Albie Meter: 4 Stars (a deep pipe game with enough in it that you won’t exhale too soon; recommended for puzzlers and pipe fitters alike with a lighthearted storyline)
-----------------
Puzzle fans of all ages will enjoy hours of brain-teasing fun as they race against time in the infectious series of quests and puzzles filled with quirky characters, a humorous storyline and engaging gameplay.

Did you ever think that a time would come when you would be begging for one little piece of pipe? With this game, you just might!
So, Gear up. The Mania is back!
PIPE TROUBLE takes a clever new spin on an arcade classic and puts players in the middle of Big Oil & Gas. In this over-the-top satire you're tasked with building your own pipeline, and trying to balance the financial demands of using the least pipe to make the most money against the impact on the local environment and neighbouring farms.
On the right, a gas company rep keeps track of your budget and continually pushes you to create the most direct economical route - every piece of pipe costs money and every second counts. Meanwhile, on the left a local farmer gauges your impact on the area and community. Lay your pipe too close to the pastures and risk springing a leak that kills livestock or makes people sick. Build through forest or near water and incite protesters that block your path. Suffer a leak or raise local indignation too far and risk potential pipe sabotage that could end your operation.
PIPE TROUBLE is a Pop Sandbox Production, produced in collaboration with Six Island Productions with the support of the Ontario Media Development Corporation and the Bell Broadcast and New Media Fund. It was developed with the support of docSHIFT (an initiative of the Documentary Organization of Canada's Toronto chapter).
