For a dollar I found it totally worthy of some attention. Doesn't seem to be really long (reached 25% explored in about 30 minutes) but the graphics, sounds and controls are great on my iPhone 7+ You gain new abilities like double jump and the map is similar to one you'd see in a Metroid game. There are no cluttered UI screens, it's just a clean, straightforward 2D dungeon romp. However, you don't attack but simply avoid traps and press on towards the next new area. I'm sorry I couldn't find a video to post but there isn't much out there and what is is in Chinese. I hope some of you give it a shot. It really is a nice little game! Edit: I've explored the main story map to 100% (about 2 1/2 hrs.) and there is a secret that looks like it doubles the size of the map once you've Spoiler collected enough red gems to open the door at the beginning of the game. I've explored probably 25% of the hidden map, though percentage progress is only awarded for the main map. The hidden map looks similar to the regular one but I have a feeling you have to complete that to get the real ending. I'm the 21st player (out of 260) to reach 100%. Bi88les Well-Known Member Jul 22, 2012 105 0 16 #3 Bi88les, Sep 4, 2017 Looks/sounds well worth a shot for 1.09! ac166 Well-Known Member May 15, 2014 383 12 18 #4 ac166, Sep 4, 2017 Any idea if it has MFi support? orangecan Well-Known Member Aug 9, 2011 2,000 150 63 #5 orangecan, Sep 4, 2017 Yeah this is fun. I like the fact there's no enemies and it's just exploration there's a nice atmosphere to it - haven't seen an option for Mifi but the touch controls seem pretty sound to me. For a quid it's hard to go wrong really gaymerX Well-Known Member Dec 30, 2014 280 0 16 #6 gaymerX, Sep 4, 2017 There's a video available on the App Store. Cool game. korkidog Well-Known Member Patreon Bronze Apr 12, 2012 153 0 16 Illinois #7 korkidog, Sep 4, 2017 Looks like a great game! Just finished Cat Bird so now I'll give this one a shot! squarezero Moderator Staff Member Patreon Silver Dec 10, 2008 13,716 1,240 113 Male Chief Strategy Officer Salem, Massachusetts, USA #8 squarezero, Sep 4, 2017 It's better -- and more of a metroidvania -- than I expected. Jean pierre Well-Known Member Mar 24, 2017 320 2 18 #9 Jean pierre, Sep 4, 2017 It is a decent platformer game. No regret at all. korkidog Well-Known Member Patreon Bronze Apr 12, 2012 153 0 16 Illinois #10 korkidog, Sep 5, 2017 Great platformer!! Not a very long game, but that's okay. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Finished it today.

I've only got a few rooms left to light up but I'm out of fire. Just wondering if you (or anyone) noticed that the murals don't seem to react when lit in that side of the world...

I feel like I've been going through the game out of order after trying the double jump and then backtracking to grab some chests I'd missed.

Then hit right and double jump in the air to catch the moving platform on the right. toofinedog Well-Known Member Oct 18, 2013 65 0 6 #15 toofinedog, Sep 6, 2017 I completed both sides of the map. There's no indication you completed the "inverted castle" other than visually verifying all the room are lit. Anyone know how to reset progress without deleting/re-installing? I'd play it again, because it's simple and fun. JarvisJackrabbit Well-Known Member Mar 10, 2011 78 0 6 #16 JarvisJackrabbit, Sep 7, 2017 Thanks for the tip! psj3809 Moderator Jan 13, 2011 12,972 722 113 England #17 psj3809, Sep 7, 2017 Just picked this up as I love platformers. Not bad at all. Lots to explore. Graphics are great so are the controls. Well worth a dollar colonel_mac Member Jun 18, 2015 5 0 0 #18 colonel_mac, Sep 29, 2017 It's not available in the US AppStore.
