About Lay the Egg
Each level is a small physics puzzle, and once an egg leaves the creature, gravity decides where it goes.
The levels are spread across three different worlds. A badly timed drop misses the nest, so precise movement matters more than speed, which makes this a real skill game.

Not every danger is visible at the start. Some obstacles stay hidden until you run into them, so a level can catch you out even when the way to the nest looks clear.
Quick summary
- You control a mystical creature in this animal game, and its job is to lay golden eggs.
- In each level you move it with taps and drop an egg toward a nest.
- Getting the egg into the nest with good timing lets you advance.
- The levels lead you through three worlds.
Key features
- Golden eggs have to land in a nest to clear a level.
- Physics decides where each dropped egg ends up.
- Taps are the only input, which keeps it close to a simple arcade game.
- Hidden obstacles can surprise you partway through a level.
Tips & tricks
- Play a new level slowly the first time so hidden obstacles do not ruin a good drop.
- Line the creature up carefully before you drop, because the egg cannot be steered once it falls.
- When a hidden obstacle gets you, replay the level with its position in mind.
