Due to clever puzzles and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bLEL2sntT6w surprisingly]] [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic memorable music]], it's a recommended playthrough for any puzzle enthusiasts. The [=DOS=] version works fine on Platform/DOSBox if you happen to find it anywhere, but the game has also seen several fan-remakes.

'''''Push-Over''''' is a PuzzleGame developed by Red Rat Software and published by Ocean in 1992. Originally for the UsefulNotes/{{Amiga}}, it was also ported to [[UsefulNotes/IBMPersonalComputer MS-DOS]] and the UsefulNotes/{{SNES}}. The game is based on the beloved pastime of setting up dominoes in a row and knocking them over, except now, half the dominoes have magical effects added to them: dominoes may do strange things like vanishing, exploding, or [[SelectiveGravity falling upward]] when struck. The aim of the game is to set up the dominoes in the proper order so that they all fall over.

The [[ExcusePlot plot]] of the game features an old mascot of the [[ProductPlacement British potato-chip snack "Quavers"]], named Colin Curly. One day, he's dancing around and he trips in mid-air, dropping ten packets of quavers from his pocket and down an anthole. A friendly ant decides to help him, but quickly finds that not only is the anthole a portal through space and time, one hundred doors stand in his way which can only be opened by completing domino puzzles. (Yeah...)
