Big Head Zed
Cleaning up after yourself was never so fun...
Zed's got a big mess to clean up, thanks to his cousin Zorp,
and he needs your help. It goes like this: Magnetos are large, heavy spheres
that power and control spaceships, and they're normally suspended above all
decks. But Zorp pulled the wrong lever (he's new) and now they're all over the
place! Zed has to get to the core of each spaceship to replace the fuse, and
without power to the lift, he has to walk. Each deck is littered with magneto
balls and wouldn't you know it, they're in the way!
BHZ is a challenging puzzle game for all ages. Guide Zed through six spaceships
and over a hundred levels, beyond dozens of obstacles and magneto balls.
Lucky for us, Zed comes prepared with a device that can get those balls rolling
out of his way.
The instruction booklet explains, "Balls that are rolling keep rolling
until they slam into something else, like a wall, or even another ball, in
which case that ball picks up the energy and starts rolling now. It's simple
kinetics, really."
Simple, but not easy. Push one ball and it blocks a passage, push another and
it starts a chain reaction, balls hitting others, thunking and clanging,
mayhem! To make things worse, some of these balls explode,
melt, or even push back when they come into contact with other balls.
Hmm, this might require some thought.
It's quick to learn and fun to play. Push the balls in the right order and
just maybe Zed won't lose his magneto-cleaning business. For Zed, it's
Just Another Day.

Holes are
one of the many obstacles in Zed's way.
Here Zed pushes one ball into another, which falls into a hole, removing
the obstacle in a puff of smoke.
