Sandy's Great Escape is a charming, pixel art puzzle game with nostalgic box pushing mechanics and a forgiving rewind mechanic. Death is never the end for Sandy, as you magically respawn and use your shell to help navigate through different obstacles.
Each of the four themed worlds adds unique mechanics to the field, giving even the most crabby player hours of entertainment with 100 levels in their claws.
And if thats not enough...
Perfect levels and earn currency to spin at the "Gachapon-d" to win over 40 unique skins!
Snap to the beat with the nostalgic chiptune soundtrack!
