Smoke Ring
A bear with a drum cannon puffs smoke rings across a room to knock cups, takeaway boxes and mugs off the shelves. Rings grow and slow as they fly and bounce off the walls, so close shots punch hard and far shots sweep wide. Never break a vase.

TapDrag- Drag anywhere to aim the drum: the direction from the drum to your finger is where the ring goes, and the closer your finger is to the edge of the room, the harder the puff. The dotted line shows the start of the path.
- Let go to fire. A ring knocks off anything it touches if it still has enough push: paper cups need little, takeaway boxes more and mugs a lot, and each knock slows the ring.
- Rings bounce off the side walls and ceiling and burst on a shelf. Clear every item except the vases; knocking a vase fails the room.
- Stars by how few puffs you need.
About the game
Smoke Ring is a small physics puzzle built around a toy that every science class loves: the vortex cannon, a drum with a hole in one end that sends out a spinning doughnut of air when you hit the back. Here a bear has filled one with smoke and is using it to clear a cluttered room. Each puff is a visible ring that sails across the room until it fades, and anything light it touches on the way is knocked off its shelf.
The twist is that a ring changes as it travels. Leaving the drum it is small, fast and hard-hitting; a moment later it is wider, slower and gentler, and by the far wall it is a big lazy hoop that barely nudges a paper cup. That makes distance part of every decision. A heavy mug needs a short, hard shot; a long row of light cups is better swept by a wide ring from far away; and cups tucked behind a shelf can only be reached by banking off a side wall or the ceiling. Vases are fragile and must stay put, so some lines are off limits. A solver found the fewest puffs for each of the eighteen rooms.
