About Fill Up Bucket
Old LCD style Puzzle game. Simply draw some lines to change water flowing direction. Let it flow into the buckets. It is simple but challenging.
How to play Fill Up Bucket
The opening minute doubles as the tutorial. Nothing about the control scheme is unusual; the table below covers all of it. The game runs in portrait, so on a phone you can play one-handed, and on desktop it stays centred rather than stretched out of shape. The second run is always better than the first — that is the whole learning curve.
Controls
| Input | Action |
|---|---|
| Mouse | Select and drag pieces |
| Left click | Confirm a move |
On mobile: Tap and swipe directly on the screen. The game is built for portrait, so you can play one-handed without rotating your phone.
Why it is worth playing
Plenty of puzzle games want a tutorial and ten minutes of setup before anything happens. Fill Up Bucket does not — it is playable from the first second. A browser game does not need to be more than that.
