Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
A mystical journey, complete with Drums, cabbage, and the intimidating movements of the dancing Nian. The legend lives! "Nian" and "super mega worm" are our all time favorite.
Another great game from deceased pixel. This game is great, challenging, and very fun.
Awesome game but its kinda challenging.
Different from the usual puzzle games and never gets old.
The time limit is so unbearable we try to beat it over and over and over but still fail this is a rage game to us now because of the time limit.
