Run. The colors follow you. The Grey Catcher is draining the world of its color. Only Sol, a greyhound, is faster than he is – and wherever she runs, the color comes back. Dodge across three lanes, leap over market stalls, slide under barriers and race across boat hulls and fallen giant trees. But watch out: one stumble, and he's right on your tail. TEN WORLDS, 100 LEVELS From Ashen Town across the Sea of Dunes, the Will-o'-Wisp Moor and Starfall Peaks all the way to the Glimmer Grotto and Canal Town: 80 levels on the main path and 20 side paths, each with three stars. Every world brings obstacles of its own – geysers, drawbridges, marching geese, falling stalactites. And at the end, a boss with a final sprint is waiting: the catcher stays right behind you, and a single slip is enough.
