Don't Push the Button
Read full descriptionHide full description
A red button. Someone asking you not to press it. And a room waiting to fill with treasure. Press the button, fill the bar, and make new chests appear. Open them, collect the loot, and decide how to spend your coins: fewer pushes per bar, more chests, or more valuable treasures. Rebirth to spend your souls in the skill constellation. Unlock goblins that press, open, and collect for you, along with chest merging, potions, and powers that change the way you play. Each branch ends with an extraordinary ability. Discover 40 collectibles, find golden variants, and build a collection that keeps growing from one rebirth to the next. A medieval room, carefully crafted sound, and a downstairs neighbour with plenty to say about all of it.
