How it feels

A gentle tactical puzzle game where you carefully position cute pixel warriors to protect a cowardly prince on a sailing journey.

What players say

Players praise a unique double-layer puzzle where you first plan unit positions and then slide pieces into place, but many find the difficulty ramps harshly after the tutorial and the lack of undo makes trial and error tedious. Opinions are split: some enjoy the challenge, others call it frustrating and not fun.
