About this challenge

Depot Dispatcher is challenge 1 in the ten-part Box & Spot collection. It uses the same core rules as the other challenges in this family, with its own settings: board width: 6 × 6; goal column: 3; goal row: 2. Choose it when you want a easy round, or use the previous and next buttons to adjust the challenge.

Rules and controls

Help your train push the wagon onto the marked goal; pushing is allowed, pulling is not. Use the arrow keys, WASD, or the direction buttons. Your result appears above the board when the round ends. Restart begins a new round; it does not continue the previous board. The game keeps a small record of completed rounds in this browser.

Make your next round better

Stand behind the wagon to push it toward the flag. You can push but cannot pull. Restart if you trap the object against the edge. If the current challenge feels too demanding, go back one level and focus on the basic pattern before increasing the pace or board size.

Playing on a phone

The board adapts to the width of your screen. Use the displayed buttons or direct touch controls. For word and number inputs, tap the text field to bring up the keyboard. Put your phone in portrait orientation for the clearest view of the controls. Timing games may feel different across devices because screens and input hardware respond at different speeds.

Part of a collection, with a clear goal

This is one of ten variations of Box & Spot, not a separate game engine. PLAYDAY contains 30 game types and 300 playable challenges in total. Each challenge has an individual page so you can return to the rules, save a favourite and choose a suitable level.
