PALINGENESIS is a music video game. The album by GRIGS unfolds as a series of interactive animated worlds, with each environment built around a different song. Created entirely by animator and musician John Paul Grigsby, PALINGENESIS brings together hand-crafted animation, interactive environments, and visual sequences that appear as you move through each world. As you progress through the album, a larger story begins to take shape through the environments and the moments you come across along the way.

かわいいモンスター達を制限時間内に4つ揃えて消せばゲームくりあ。 失敗するとりんごが無くなり、全部無くなるとゲームオーバー。 枠の中に同種類のモンスター4つを縦に揃えればモンスターが消えて制限時間が少しプラスになります。 全てのモンスターを消せばステージクリア、制限時間がポイントとして加算されます。 ポイントが1000を超えるとりんごが一個復活します。 りんごが0になればゲームオーバーです。 宝箱を消せば制限時間が大幅にプラスされるので、攻略の鍵になるでしょう。 ステージ数は100ですが、アップデートで追加予定です、楽しみにしていてください。
