The impossibility moving now

Up is down! Left is right! Hocus 2’s clever puzzles will have you looking at things from a whole new perspective.

How it plays: Slide the red cube along minimalist 3D structures until you’ve absorbed all the little balls. Sounds simple, but each level is a brain-bending optical illusion with angles that seem to defy the laws of geometry.

Rotating the dark section lets you access different sides of this impossible shape.

Why we love it: The sequel to the excellent Hocus is filled with head-scratching puzzles, but its relaxed pace makes it positively zen-like. Don’t be surprised if you solve levels almost instinctively!

Don’t miss: If you’re stuck, take a peek at the directional indicator at the top of the screen. It’ll show you which directions you can move—and maybe open your mind to new possibilities.
