Single-celled Loki just loves to make friends! But Phis, the ridiculous monster is more than standoffish…he’s downright RUDE. Rude and unnecessarily evil! Solve the mysteries of the deep in this cute puzzle game! Play as Loki, eternally optimistic and friendly gelatinous single cell-about-town. Loki loves to make friends, getting slightly too close, occasionally leaping on them, and absorbing their abilities. As all shapeshifters do. But the reviled and, frankly, poorly accessorized Phis will do anything to stop Loki from discovering the secret of multi-cellular life! Discover the mystical wonders of these deep-sea beings: • The Kliques - you know they are judging you as they whisper amongst themselves. Join them at your peril • Cyto, who doesn’t like to be touched, THANKYOUVERYMUCH, and perhaps had too much coffee this morning • Sprink - swapping tales and likely DNA as it shoots...stuff • Strepto will shock Loki back to reality. Well, *this* version of reality • Walsby, who shows opposition defiance tendencies, like all willful young beings, including possibly the children of totally fictitious game development teams. Walsby can be moved if you're patient. Or armed. • Rick, who, you know, does what Ricks do • The steam vents, which aren’t nearly as relaxing as they sound but may propel you to success • Slime mold tiles, which actually *are* more fun than they sound • The cracks of doom, which are as brittle as the biggest ego Loki's Castle is filled with fun, challenging levels for those days when you just feel like going for a mental swim. In the dark. With cute things! “I laughed. I cried. We don’t like to be touched all that much, so let’s not hug.” Cyto's bio parent, Mama Blast “Wheeee! Wheeeeeeeeee!”Vented Loki “You struggled during naptime, didn’t you, human?” Phis Keykeeper – Viral Big Wig "You probably won't beat level 43." Randomish cruel level designer *** Play the astounding new game that challenges theories of evolution and biology…by ignoring science completely and replacing it with cute, squishy, possibly hazardous biofun!
