Strategy-based Puzzler

A strategy-based single-player puzzler with two players, because Jugo is always there, watching and waiting for your mistake.


Each level has a design score which may be relatively easy to beat, or not. Some are quite difficult. Can you beat them all? Can you play a perfect game, when Jugo is always ready to capitalize on any opportunity to ruin your perfect game?

Jugo likes pretty things, and in Jugo's universe pretty things are pie, and cake.

Pie and Cake

Your job is to make pie particles, which are marked with an old symbol that means pie, and omega particles, which we call cake. Omega particles are marked with an old symbol that means we are about to run out of cake.

Jugo doesn't do Math

The number particles are there to make the game look pretty smart, as if we understand math. Any particular number particle always has the same color. You can therefore use colors (instead of numbers) to make more particles, pie, and cake, and also to make the empty void which Jugo will use to access your pie and cake, if you thoughtfully or carelessly allow this. The point is to fight back against math, new or old.

How do you Win?

There is no losing in Jugo. When you fail to complete a level . . . Jugo wins! When you complete a level but don't have more points than Jugo . . . Jugo wins! And of course there is a chance you will have more points and, like, win.

Each designed level is unique and so each level has a leaderboard for allowing the humans to compete against each other. You can even step through leaderboard games move by move. Jugo himself also has a leaderboard. Don't think of it as a hall of shame, even though that is what it is.

A number of badges await your achievement.

Fourtex Jugo has controller support as well as keyboard or mouse support, and has simple configuration menus for adjusting audio and other parameters.
