About the game
What you do in a play session
Pakal is a real-time puzzle game that will test your mental and physical agility. Each player gets a 4x4 grid with 15 blocks, some colored and some transparent. Each round, an objective card is revealed, and the challenge is to slide the blocks to show only the indicated symbols, hiding the others. The fastest to solve the puzzle can grab a scoring block and advance on the scoring track. But beware: crossing a red line on the track forces you to replace a colored block with a transparent one, increasing the difficulty in future rounds. It's a race against time and your opponents, perfect for those who enjoy quick and intense challenges.
