You are a plumber, and your job is to connect pipes together, linking them from the mains to the tap, before the water flows and leaks out!

Plumber-Man is a speed puzzle game, played with a keyboard on a desktop PC/Mac. Using the directional buttons on a keyboard, shift to change shape, and shift to rotate, arrange the pieces of the pipes to guide the water to their destination.

Each level you are given an environment whose viewing angle depends on the environment (i.e. top, left, right or bird's eye view). Levels contains various obstacles that your pipe construction has to avoid, adding to the difficulty, which increases with every level. There also may be certain pipes already laid down, that you are required to make use -such as an elbow bend placed in an obscure part of the level.

Early in the game, there may only be one source and destination, but as the difficulty level increases, the number of sources and/or destinations increase, and new pipe shapes are introduced and made available to you when that occurs. As the difficulty increases, the lead in time before the water flows is shortened, and the water pressure also increases (i.e. flows faster). You are given a lead in time before the water begins to flow. If you fail to successfully plumb in the pipes and water is spilt, you fail the level and you must restart the level.

At the end of each level, you are scored on efficiency (how many pipes you used) with bonuses for fulfilling any level-specific requirements. Levels are designed so that there would be a number of ways to complete them, so the player has freedom to employ their own strategies.

Platform: PC/Mac.
