About the Game

Trilateral Conquest is a top-down puzzle game inspired by trilateration (i.e. how GPS works).  The controls are straightforward, with only mouse/tap interaction required.  However, as is common for puzzle games, you can undo with "Z" and reset the level with "R," in addition to on-screen buttons for these actions.

If you have any trouble figuring out what to do, please click in-game the "HOW TO PLAY" button for an explanation.  Here's the text in case you want to read it now (but hidden in case you want to mess around and figure it out on your own!).

HOW TO PLAY

MOVE THE CUBES TO COVER THE SPHERES. EACH CUBE WILL TARGET THE SPHERE CLOSEST TO IT. WHEN ALL CUBES ARE TARGETING THE SAME SPHERE, CLICK IT TO CAPTURE IT. AFTER CAPTURING, YOU CAN ONLY MOVE ONE CUBE BEFORE CAPTURING AGAIN. YOU MUST CAPTURE ALL SPHERES TO CONTINUE.

In accordance with the third wildcard, "A Capella," all sounds (including all layers of the music) were made with my mouth, generally by layering multiple recorded sounds together.

Another clever puzzle mechanic! Nice one!

Thank you so much! Both for the kind words and just for taking the time to try it out, I was pleasantly surprised to see you had commented. :)

I try to keep an eye on the Wild jams, and always happy to try a new puzzle. :) Hope the main event is going well!

Surprisingly hard puzzle game! My first try I got stuck on level 3. XD
