About the Game

Toddlers can be friends, or food.

The humongous clown-demon Toodles has escaped from his poorly constructed cage, so foolish villagers summon the mighty Player to protect them. They're gonna regret that.

Gifted with the magical ability to throw stuff, the Player will use any resource available to defeat their bloated nemesis. Sacrifice villagers, transform and consume cute wildlife, do whatever it takes to survive until you have enough strength to bring down the clown.

Balls will be your primary tools, and can be used to craft allies to fight for you. You will need to build an army before taking on Toodles. For starters, try different balls on the toddlers.

This puzzle has many pieces that can be put together in different combinations. Experiment with transformations and through curiosity you can discover multiple strategies for victory.

  • Evolve toddlers into mutant followers to fight teddy bears.
  • Protect your ugly baby army with layers of poop armor.
  • Encourage extra growth by feeding them licorice allsorts.
  • Twisters will randomly transform them, for good or bad.
  • Toddlers can also be converted into yummy food or milk.
  • Mice can be converted into stuffed animals to reduce fear.
  • Rubber ducks are raw material to make additional balls.
  • Knock off villager heads then upgrade them into guards.
  • Arm now-braver villagers with powerful plasma swords.
  • Capture flying unicorns and bats inside floating bubbles.
  • Reshape gummy bear corpses into strange new friends.
  • Hunt nightmares to upgrade your army into monsters.
