How it feels

A frantic, comedic point-and-click minigame where you race against a 20-second timer to prevent explosions using absurd solutions.

What players say

Players describe McPixel as a rapid-fire series of 20-second point-and-click puzzles where you defuse a bomb through absurd solutions. The humor and failures are as entertaining as successes, but the game is visually ugly with giant pixels. Some find it gets boring quickly, and the DLC caused a freeze for one player.
