Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

Get ready to challenge your brain and put your insights to the test with this turn-based logical game inspired by classic PC games. With 110 levels ranging from easy to tricky, you'll need to complete each level in the smallest number of moves and the quickest time possible. Your objective is to collect all the chips and deliver them to the CPU while avoiding obstacles, locked doors, moats, enemies, and dangerous turrets. Each level is unique, and your best results are recorded and compared to other players' scores when online. You can see the current top players in terms of time and shortest path to overcome levels. Levels 0-50 are free, while levels 51-110 are premium and divided into two packages. After purchasing the premium package levels, you can play them offline without an internet connection.
