About the Game

Ever wonder what lurks at the bottom of a cup you've left on the side for 3 weeks and haven't washed up yet? What strange world has evolved and grown in there at that microscopic level?

In this  2D Puzzle-Platformer, you take on brain bending challenges by cloning your Algae and morphing them into new and exciting tools, all in a bid to escape! With four difficulty levels (including the aptly named 'Impossible' difficulty) master your skills and free as many Algae as possible.

Experience the microscopic world of the beaker and navigate enemies that will stop at nothing to prevent Algae from reaching their goal.

Features:

  • More is better! Clone Algae to solve puzzles

  • Morph to move enemies and boulders to hard-to-reach areas

  • 10 mind-bending puzzles to solve
