Cirque du Flea

Cirque du Flea is a puzzle game divided into five acts, each containing ten puzzles. While the first two acts are free, the other three must be bought first. The main goal of every puzzle is to send a number of ten acrobat fleas into the pool of water. The player can use the cannon to shoot other fleas in order to open the flask where the acrobats are trapped and release them. The acrobat fleas, driven by physics, will then move steadily along a path made of paper clips, pencils, and other small objects towards the pool of water. Using the cannon fleas, the player must move objects around to cover any gaps in the acrobats' path. Otherwise the latter will fall down to the zapper and will be unable to reach the pool. In this regard, the gameplay may resemble that of Lemmings. Since the physics are an important component of the game, it may be necessary to guide the acrobats towards trampolines or bump some paper clip platforms in order to reach the final destination. At the same time, they may get stuck on even ground and will then fall asleep, making the puzzle impossible to finish.

In order to complete a puzzle it's enough for a single flea to reach the pool of water, however every additional flea that lands in it will increase the final score. Other ways to earn more points include making the acrobat fleas hit the golden paper clips or objects, as well as using fewer cannon shots--this improves the accuracy score.
