Alien Burst

Choose a ship to collect matching pins. Open a path through the layers and leave room for the ships that return.

How it plays

Launch a ship.
Reveal a world.

Pick a ship from the ready queue. It travels around a colourful object and gathers matching pins it can reach. Clearing the outer pins can open a path to the next layer.

Each ship has limited cargo space, and returning ships share a small waiting area. Plan the launch order around the pins you can reach and the room you have left.

  1. Choose a ready ship

    Choose from the ready ships. Match a ship’s colour and cargo capacity to the pins currently exposed.

  2. Reveal the next layer

    Your ship follows its route and collects accessible pins. Clearing one layer can open a path to the next.

  3. Make room for the return

    A full ship leaves with its cargo. A partly filled ship returns to a limited waiting area. Keep the fleet moving.

Think beyond the colour.

A colour match can still leave a ship partly filled if the next pins are blocked. Keep return space free while you open a path for another colour.

Welcome to
Pins Planet.

Colourful pins from an alien planet have found their way into objects on Earth. Friendly crews collect them and take them home.

Objects on Earth become pin-covered puzzles. As the crews collect their cargo, layers of pins fall away and new paths through the object open up.

Good to know.

What is Alien Burst?

Alien Burst is a mobile colour and fleet puzzle game in development at Copperwhim. Choose ready ships to collect matching pins they can reach on layered objects, then take their cargo home to Pins Planet.

Why does launch order matter?

Removing outer pins can make another colour accessible. A full ship leaves with its cargo, while a partly filled ship returns to a limited waiting area. Plan around the exposed colours, cargo capacity and return space.

When and where can I play Alien Burst?

Alien Burst is in development for mobile. A release date, supported devices and store links have not been announced. Confirmed availability will be added to this page.
