It's nice to have a game that exciting, ouzzling and thought-provoking, with plenty of challenge...
Sound sappy? Don't worry. This is in the same legue as 'Cake Baking 2000' or 'Bingo! 2'. Aeurgh. I would rather die. It most certainly is NOT. It can be - as is - a lot messier.
The idea behind this is that you are Abe, a Mudukon, a slave of Rupture Farms, a meat processing plant (Rupture Farms, not you). As meat supplies thin and profits fall, Mulok the Glukkon has to look towards finding a new source of iron and protein....
...YOU!
You spend your game trying to escape, bringing as many of your Mudukon friends with you. You are the skinny thin blue guy with a stitched mouth, lamp-like eyes and no weapons, in a world of quick-draining vampire bats, explosive bombs, rifle-toting Sligs, vicious bloodthirsty Slogs, hand-faced paramites, territorial sprinting Scrabs, and oh so much more. Sounds dangerous? Oh, yeah.
On the plus side, you can posses the Sligs. All of which carry weapons. All of which can command Sligs – which are really just a giant pair of jaws on two legs – with commands 'Here boy' and 'Get him!'. You have to watch out because the Sligs can either 1: have a protective beacon that zaps you when you try, or 2: have more than one Slig on screen that will shoot you as soon as you're 'in' (just get the second as well). Most of the time is running and puzzle-solving, though, so keep your reflexes tuned to the max! Although it may start off easy, difficulty mounts to the extreme!
Your main target is to escape, to a place of great mystery (OK, I'm just not going to tell you what it is, OK? You find that out yourself), and bring as many other Mudukons as you can with you. THIS IS IMPORTANT as it will affect the ending of your game! If you ignore them, shot them, trap them or so on and laugh evilly, they will let you die at the end. If you save enough, they return the favor.
This is a great game that will leave you tingling and pumped with that wonder-drug - adrenaline.
