About

GOA

Read full description

A key is lost somewhere in the maze, and it has to reach the exit. Getting it there is the whole game. The ground is cut into cubes and the pieces do not touch. Walking will not carry you across a gap โ€” you cross with what the map gives you. A rope. A folding plank. A swinging arm. A mirror that puts you somewhere else entirely. Sool goes where you tell him. Look around, read the shape of the land, decide, then move. โ€ข A new maze every time โ€” nothing to memorise โ€ข No timer, no lives, nothing chasing you โ€ข Steps are counted, so play for the exit or for the perfect run โ€ข Lose your way? Climb the lookout and see the whole map โ€ข Easy, Medium and Hard โ€ข Rain, fog, day and night, and a palette that changes with the land โ€ข Plays offline, anywhere
