In the game, players navigate hero characters through a series of gym obstacle courses. Players must push and pull objects to create a path for their hamster companion, Fur Blur, to reach her snack.

At the beginning of each level, players observe the puzzle and choose which objects to place in the world. Players iterate through the cycle of placing and moving objects, testing hypotheses until they find a solution.

As the game progresses, players unlock stronger movements: shoving and yanking. Each puzzle builds on the last, allowing players to experiment with all four actions on small, big, flat, and round objects.

By solving puzzles efficiently, players can unlock special golden levels. These levels add an extra layer of challenge by synthesizing a variety of learning concepts.
