Switch description

A puzzle with elements of arcade, where you have to control a creature with a green bulb. His task on each level is to reach the exit, but in reality it is not so easy.

Each level consists of first a small and then a very large number of interconnected tiles (the game above). On some tiles there are arrows, and from this tile you can continue to follow only in the direction in which the arrow points. But at each level there are levers and buttons, which, when activated, allow you to change the direction of certain arrows; also occasionally there are teleports to different parts of the level, but there are tiles which can be only once, after which they are destroyed. Some tiles have the image of the door – this is necessary be sure to look for the keys (which is, of course, on very different tiles).

Thus, the passage surface of the tiles, sometimes not just in the maze, and in a very real strategy where you have to carefully consider not only each step but also several subsequent to which it will lead. However, it is very difficult to call the game impossible, and given that her schedule is very pleasing to the eye (although the graphics in these games to evaluate not worth it), this thing can be recommended to a very wide range of people who prefer to stay with the benefits for your brain.
