A large variety of characters and non-linear progression allow for great replayability. And a few mini-games and surprises mix up the experience every time.

The game features a charming retro pixel art style and an atmospheric soundtrack, free saving and multiple difficulties.

Even though the game looks like it’s straight from the 90s, it boasts modern game design principles and no dead ends or overly high difficulty.
