Summary

[edit]

The player and his girlfriend must find their way back home after being sucked into an alternate universe.[1]

A magnificent castle full of 25 different game worlds block their progress, however, and they are filled with enemies on every stage.[1] The player has an overhead view to destroy the enemies for extra loot.[1] Given a strict time limit of 100 seconds to solve each puzzle, the game rewards fast puzzle solvers.[1] The first player controls the male while the second player controls the female.[1] Players only start with three lives and lose them when time runs out or when a monster comes into contact with him/her.[1]

Enemies in the game include springs, rollers, witches, and zombies.[1]
