The object is to get Your Man, the robot, to the destination. The basic function is for the robot to walk onto a square. That square will be zoomed along a horizontal or vertical axis if there's another square on that axis. Very similar to Luma Link from 2012, which is also fantastic.
Unit 404 adds a slew of elements to make things even harder. There's the purple arrow square which always advances one unit after it has been zoomed.
Not shown in these 5 images: one type of square grabs all the surrounding squares in a 3x3 grid and rotates them.
I've solved about 60% of the levels. That's about 4 hours of entertainment for just $3. A bargain. On many levels, I probably had 20 attempts.
One very interesting feature: the robot will want to travel either right to left or left to right. Sometimes, changing his direction is part of the puzzle.
Unit 404 is a gem. There should be a Leader Board feature in order to see if/who has solved them all.

Yep, that’s a really good one there... I have a small list of games developers who I trust such that as soon as they release something, I buy it. He is one of them...! I think you are a bit further than I am, but I am loving it! That wonderful feeling when you look at a level and think “that can’t be possible”, but then keep chipping away at it until a solution is complete!
