Puzzle Parasite

Puzzle Parasite is a sci-fi puzzle adventure where you wield telekinetic powers and a cricket bat. You send energy cores flying, power alien tech, and avoid deadly lasers, as you go deeper to uncover the hidden secrets. A handcrafted tribute to the classics that made us think in new ways.
