Free the emoji

Free the Emoji is a clever, moreish physics puzzle that’ll challenge your fingers and your brain in equal measure. You guide a cheerful little hero named Red through a series of tricky levels, solving physics-based puzzles to set the trapped emoji free. It’s the kind of pick-up-and-play brain-teaser that starts gentle and grows satisfyingly devious, rewarding a bit of thought over trial and error. Look at the whole level before you act, and aim for the neat solution that uses gravity and momentum to do the work for you. With plenty of levels to crack and that addictive ‘just one more’ pull, it’s easy to lose a happy stretch of time in. Bright, funny and cleverly designed, it’s a great pick for anyone who loves a good physics puzzle with personality.
