Re-arrange blocks on a grid to reveal the hidden treasure! Dig It is a tricky, visual brainteaser puzzle where you must reveal a hidden treasure chest by re-sorting Tetris-style blocks within a tight grid. The treasure begins each level fully or partially covered by one or more of the blocks. You must figure out a way to flip, rotate, and re-position the blocks so that the chest becomes fully visible. The catch is that there is limited spare space for the blocks to be moved to!
This challenging, interactive problem-solving activity for older kids, teens, and grownups provides a good test and exercise of your analytical thinking skills, focus, concentration, prediction & strategy skills combined with good-old problem-busting determination and patience. Trial and error is important here as you try to find out the correct block arrangement in each level. Happy block shifting!
How to Play: In each of the 18 progressively difficult levels, your job is to move the blocks around the grid until the whole of the treasure chest is fully visible, unobstructed. Note: Blocks are referred to as ‘plates’ on the instruction manual on the game interface.
Using your computer mouse or touchpad, Left Click on a block to ‘pick it up’. Once the block is under the control of your mouse cursor, click on a neutral area of the grid to rotate it. You can also "flip" a block into its mirror image by clicking anywhere outside the main grid. Alternatively, flip the block by pressing any of the Arrow Keys or WASD Keys on your computer keyboard.
When you want to re-position the block back onto the grid, click on an available empty area (The block must fit into this area without overlapping with others in order for it to snap into its own space on the grid). Once the treasure chest is fully visible, you progress to the next level.
