What is Call Max and Nuggets!

A charming arcade puzzler where you switch between a boy and his dog to clear each room. Work together, solve the layout, and reach the goal.

How to Play

Control one character at a time and switch between Max and Nuggets with a single key or tap. Use each character's unique ability to activate switches, move blocks, and open paths to the exit.

Tips for Playing

Scan the whole room before moving anyone—many solutions require an obvious first step that's easy to miss.
Use Nuggets to check tight passages first; he's faster and less likely to get stuck.
Don't rush pushing blocks; a wrong move may block a switch you need later.
If you're stuck, try switching characters and looking at the puzzle from the other side.
Memorize where switches reset after you step off them, so you can time your final push.
