About the Game

The monsters are tired of heroes stealing their treasure, so they've set up the ultimate trap! You play as the mastermind behind the dungeon's trap system. Your goal is to capture the intruding heroes using a combination of a thick mud bog and a puzzle-based capture mechanism.

Gameplay: A Novel "Two-Step" Chain Puzzle This is a unique click-to-destroy puzzle game with a fresh mechanic: gravity only kicks in after you destroy two blocks. This innovative stacking delay allows you to strategically misalign columns, matching patterns to trigger explosive chain reactions that clear adjacent blocks! When enemies struggle or attack, your "Escape Prevention Magic Gauge" decreases. You can restore it by including specific "Mud Blocks" in your chain reactions.

The Core Experience: Submerge and Capture The puzzle is just the method; the real draw is the visual experience of slowly sinking your targets into a sticky, thick bog. Every time you clear blocks and trigger chains, the enemy character (human or furry) on the stage sinks a little deeper into the mud. Deplete the enemy's HP (submersion level) to completely sink and capture them. Once the stage is cleared, you will be rewarded with a results screen featuring the character completely covered in mud! Note: Heroes do not die in this game. They are simply captured and thoroughly muddied.
