    Description

    Play as a telephone operator in the 1960s, when exchanges were not yet fully automated. Plug the right cables to connect incoming calls before the switchboard overflows! Switchboard Shuffle is a puzzle-game/score-chaser inspired by Tetris and Puzzle League , featuring unique cable-routing gameplay. Cables drop from the top of the board and must be guided to jacks of the matching color. Think Ahead : Cables stay on the board until the entire call is connected. Manage your space carefully to avoid getting stuck, or prepare cables for the next call to trigger chains. Crank the Pressure : Use the Playdate Crank to push the board upward. A risky move that can help set up big chains. Watch the Mood : Keep the operator in a Great Mood to earn bonuses. Too many mistakes will speed up the game! As the day progresses, the pace quickens. Stay sharp and don't let the calls pile up!

    Accessibility

    This game uses the d-pad and the crank / button. The crank is optional: scrolling can be done with up/down arrows and in-game, pressing B has the same function. While the game can be enjoyed at a relaxed pace, higher scores will require faster reaction times and coordination.
