Drips
A leaky tap is spilling little water drops into the sewer, and they just keep walking: off ledges, into walls, straight into boiling pots. Hand out plumbing skills to dig, climb, float, build and blast a path, and get enough of them safely down the drain.

How to play
They walk. You plumb.
Pick a skill
Choose one of the skills along the bottom, or press 1 to 8. Each level gives you a limited handful.
Click a drop
The highlighted drop gets the skill. Dig, climb, float, build or blast a path to the drain.
Save enough
Get the target number of drops down the drain before the timer runs out to unlock the next level.
The toolbox
Eight plumbing skills.
Brick and ice can be dug, blasted and built on. Steel pipe can't, so read the level before you start handing out jobs.
Cling
Surface tension lets a drop climb straight up walls.
Bubble
A soap bubble floats the drop down any drop safely.
Burst
Pops after five seconds and blasts a hole in the bricks.
Plug
Turns into a rubber stopper that sends everyone else back.
Freeze
Builds a 16-step ice staircase over gaps and up shelves.
Jet
A high-pressure jet that tunnels sideways through brick.
Erode
Wears a sloping tunnel diagonally down.
Seep
Soaks straight down through the floor.
Screenshots
Twenty levels of damp peril.
Twenty levels
From a gentle first dig to The Big Flush, across sewers, boiler rooms and drain-cleaner vats.
Eight plumbing skills
Cling, Bubble, Burst, Plug, Freeze, Jet, Erode and Seep. Every level gives you a different handful.
Dig through anything
Brick and ice can be tunnelled, blasted and built on. Steel pipe can't, and the puzzles know it.
Cute, and doomed
The drops blink, smile and wave their little arms, right up until they walk into boiling water. Save them.
