About Hamster Pop
Exercise your brain and clear the levels of cute hamsters by moving them onto the bottom of the screen. There is limited space for that, but three of the same animals are removed from the storage. Simply tap on the selected animal block and it will be moved to the bottom of the screen. If there are three of the same animals at the bottom, you score and the hamsters are removed. If you run out of store space, the game ends.
How to play Hamster Pop
Nothing here needs explaining twice. On desktop the arrow keys / WASD do the moving; the full mapping is in the table below. 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. Take the first run as practice and the second one seriously.
Controls

| Mouse | Navigate menus and interact |
| Arrow keys / WASD | 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
Difficulty in Hamster Pop comes from the game itself rather than from waiting, unlocking or paying, which is rarer than it should be. The result is something you can pick up cold months later.
