The sequel to Polarium, Polarium Advance (or Tsuukin Hitofude 通勤ヒトフデ, Tsūkin Hitofude in Japan). Same gist as the predecessor, flipping from black to white and vice-versa to clear the puzzles, but instead you have to draw lines by using the d-pad. Developed by Mitchell Corporation and published by Nintendo (in Japan, Europe) and Atlus (in North America).

Intro before the start of the game

The Japanese version intro is shorter than the American version, as at shows the blue Nintendo and the Mitchell Corporation logo at the same first screen before the game starts.

Daily Polarium

On this mode you casually need to finish all 365 puzzles per day (a year)..
You will be asked to enter in the date you want your game to start at. the date selection can go up from January 1, 2000 to December 31, 2099. Once you select the date, you'll have to complete in one year (or 366 days depending on the year. For example if you started the game in 2008, that would an extended year by one day).
Daily Polarium puzzles are pre-determined:
The game will always assumed you choosed Thursday as your starting day, no matter what date you choosed. For example: If you choose any date that's a Monday.
  • Monday would be Thursday
  • Tuesday would be Friday
  • Wednesday would be Saturday
  • Thursday would be Sunday
  • Friday would be Monday
  • Saturday would be Tuesday
  • and Sunday would be Wednesday
The Weekends:
  • Every Saturday, you'll get a Multi Tile puzzle.
  • Every Sunday, you'll get a Solid Tiles puzzle.
Notes about Daily Polarium:
  • The calendar menu music will have extra track playing when your at halfway through your year.
  • The game will carry on to year 2100 if you start your game at December 31, 2099.
  • If you finish all 365 Daily Polarium then you unlock more puzzles on Reference Polarium.
    • This means this game has 381 puzzles in total.
