Save the resort!After receiving a distress call from a wildlife resort, you and you rat companion Gustavo embark on a mission to fix the surrounding wind turbines.
For years, the park had been inhabited by a family of rats who have now mysteriously disappeared. Unfortunately, their presence has left the park inoperable.
Destroyed by rats, saved by another. There's something poetic there, no?
Without the turbines functioning, the resort's filtration system could malfunction, so a lot is at stake! Can you save the animals?
Challenge yourself with a series of unique physics-based puzzles.
Arrive at the park, help Gustavo solve innovative puzzles using realistically simulated physics in order to fix all wind turbines.
See the environment change as you make progress in your maintenance!
Explore the wind park, take in the beautiful scenery and relax.
Each level more challenging than the last, use the supplied objects to clear a path to the exit! Bombs, fans, gears and more are at your disposal. How will you solve each puzzle?
The fate of the wildlife resort lies within your paws!
