IKA FERRY is a traffic jam puzzle: free the boats from a crowded harbor and load the waiting squids onto boats of the same color. Boats can only move the way their arrow points, so choosing which boat goes first is everything. Watching full boats set sail one after another is pure satisfaction.
Solve your way to stage 1,000 on Hard for an IQ over 230!
How to play IKA FERRY
- Boats in the harbor only move the way their arrow points. Tap a boat with a clear path and it sails out to the pier.
- Once a boat reaches the pier, squids of the same color board it in order from the front of the line.
- When every seat is filled, the boat sets off! Carry all the waiting squids to clear the stage.
- If the pier is completely full and the front squid has no boat to board, you're stuck. But once per stage, a float dock appears and saves you.
- You can undo one move at a time, and if you're unsure, a hint shows which boat to send next.

Features
- Three modes — Easy, Normal and Hard — with 1,000 stages each. Clear 100 stages of one mode to unlock the next.
- Lots of twists: rocks that never move, big ferries that seat 6, frozen boats, shipyards that launch one boat after another, locked boats, and mystery boats whose color stays hidden until their path is clear.
- Hard mode adds 2-seat and 4-seat boats, and from stage 300 the pier shrinks to just 3 spots.
- In Easy and Normal, a helper meteor sometimes crashes down and blasts away boats that are stuck deep in the harbor!
- The harbor scenery changes from stage to stage, and you can choose your favorite background music.
How the game goes
Easy starts in a calm harbor, and clearing 100 stages opens Normal, then Hard. As you go, new twists appear little by little: rocks that never move, big ferries that carry six, frozen boats, shipyards that keep sending out boats, locked boats and mystery boats. Hard adds boats for two or four passengers, and from stage 300 on you only get three piers. In Easy and Normal, a helper meteor sometimes blasts away a stuck boat for you.
IKA FERRY tips
- Before sending a boat, check the colors of the next few squids in line. Sending boats for colors that board soon keeps the pier clear.
- Sending a boat whose squids are still far back in line just blocks a pier spot. The order really matters!
- To free a boat deep in the harbor, plan which boats in front of it need to leave first.
- For frozen and locked boats, send the boats that unlock them early so everything flows smoothly later.
Who it’s for
Perfect for anyone who likes thinking a few moves ahead and loves turning a mess into order. Easy mode starts gently, so it's friendly even if you're new to puzzles.
FAQ
Q. What if I send out boats in the wrong order?
Use "Undo" to take back a move. If you're not sure which boat should go next, a hint will show you.
Q. What happens when the piers fill up?
If no boat can take the squid at the front of the line, the stage is lost. But once per stage a floating pier appears to save you, and sometimes you can watch an ad to get an extra pier.
Q. Is my progress saved?
Yes, it's saved automatically in this browser, so you can tap "Continue" next time. Clearing your browser data will erase it.
