In this game the professor comes out of the ground in one spot and must exit from another that has a red arrow over. The trick is getting there. He can run and climb, but not jump.

There are barrels and crates that he can push, on grass they will move till they run into something. In sand they stop unless he keeps pushing. There are many other terrain types. He can balance on a barrel and move along, this was very helpful when I found a ladder that was just out of reach, once I figured out how to get onto the barrel. There are also a lot of other things to interact with like trampolines, gates with buttons that must be held down to open and much more.

There is a story, and it involves some friend-bots he made that turned into rage-bots that sometimes show up to get him. The first time I met them they killed me, and then I discovered the show solution button, in their solution he just out ran the rage-bot.

There are 5 types of levels. The regular levels are fairly easy, but very helpful in learning what to do. Advanced is for the veteran player or adults, I had trouble because I hadn't learned what to do. There are kids levels, and alphabet levels, which are easy and very colorful for the kids.

Last are custom levels, but they are only available in the registered version. In the registered game is 230 levels. There is also a level editor, and you can post the levels that you make on the website. And the game comes with a 60 day money back guarantee.

The game looks a little like it is more geared toward kids, but it would be fun for the whole family.
