Pigs have reached the stars and somebody has to steer. Punch black holes in space, bend each ship's course and get it home. 25 sectors free.

Whoever said pigs couldn't fly?

Space is big, rockets are dear, and pigs are not built for speed. So the swine-tists built the Punch-O-Matic 3000: a desk machine that punches black holes in the fabric of space.

You are the newest hire in the Holes Department, and the ships are already on their way.

You cannot steer a ship. You can only punch holes and let gravity do the rest.

HOW IT PLAYS • Touch the screen to punch a black hole. Drag it about. Feed it more matter to make it pull harder. • A dotted line shows where the ship will go. Bend it towards the station. • Press the big LAUNCH key and find out whether you were right. • Fewer holes and less matter make a better score.

WHAT IS OUT THERE • Rocks and planets, some of which will not sit still • Black holes that were there before you, and white holes that shove • Wormholes • Colleagues adrift, who must be picked up on the way to your destination • Ships that left without any fuel. Do not ask the Accounts department about this

60 SECTORS The first 25 are free. The Overtime pack, 35 more, is one payment. No adverts. No timers. No coins.

The further sectors add stars that cook the ship, ice that saves it, planets that must be gone right round, black holes that turn up late, and a finale that asks for all of it.

ALSO • Stuck? Tell the machine "I give up" and it will fly the sector for you • No account, no sign-in, and nothing collected about you • Notes from your colleagues, a staff pass, and a promotion if you earn one

In space, no one can hear you squeal.
