Pull The Pin

🎮 About Pull The Pin

Pull the Pin is one of those "impossible to put down" mobile-style puzzles that took the internet by storm. You've got a tub of colourful balls, a series of pins holding them in, and a goal: pull the pins in the right order so all the balls fall into the bottom container. Simple premise, endlessly tricky execution.

The catch? Some balls are good (they need to land in the pot), others are bad (they need to bounce out). And the levels keep adding new twists — bombs that explode if they touch certain colours, multiple containers, obstacles in the way, and limited pin pulls per level.

Each level takes 10–30 seconds to attempt. You'll fail, retry, fail again, retry, and then suddenly crack it and feel like a genius. Then the next level is harder. It's the perfect "just one more round" game.

📖 How to Play Pull The Pin

1. Study the level layout. Before pulling anything, look at the pin arrangement, the ball colours, and the obstacles. Plan your move order in your head.
2. Pull pins in the right order. Tap or click pins to pull them out. Order matters — pulling the wrong pin first can send balls bouncing off in the wrong direction.
3. Get the right balls in the pot. Some balls are coloured "good" (must end up in the pot), others are "bad" (must escape). Match colours to containers.
4. Avoid bombs and obstacles. Later levels add bombs that detonate on contact with wrong-coloured balls, and obstacles that bounce things off course.
5. Beat the level in one pull sequence. Most levels have a single correct pin-pull sequence. Trial and error is normal — but the level only counts as solved when you get it right.

Whether you’re on desktop or tapping away on your phone, Pull The Pin keeps things simple:

✨ Features

• Easy to learn, hard to master — Tap a pin, watch balls fall. But chaining the right pin order across multiple obstacles is where the real challenge lives.
• Hundreds of levels — The base game ships with 100+ levels across multiple themed worlds (Potions, Lab, Bakery, Space). Each world adds new mechanics.
• Satisfying physics — The balls bounce, roll, and collide with proper physics. Even failed attempts look gorgeous as the balls scatter.
• No time pressure — Think as long as you want. Pull the pins when you're ready. No countdown, no rush — just pure logic.
• Daily challenge — A new puzzle drops every day. Solve it before your friends for bragging rights.

💡 Tips & Tricks

1. Visualise before you pull. Imagine the path each ball will take once a pin is removed. If two balls would collide and bounce out of the pot, that's the wrong order.
2. Start with the most-restrictive pin. Pins holding the most balls, or the rarest colours, are usually the "key" pins. Pull those first to see the new flow.
3. Bad balls can be useful. Sometimes you NEED a bad ball to bounce off an obstacle and hit a switch or knock another ball loose. Think creatively.
4. Don't be afraid to reset. Resetting costs nothing. If a pull order feels wrong halfway through, hit reset and try a different approach.
5. Watch replays of your own attempts. When you fail, pay attention to which ball went where. Often, the answer to a level is hidden in the physics of your failed attempt.
