Wallbound Explorer
There's an importance to collecting things in games especially if those things are coins and Wallbound Explorer will have you collecting all the coins possible. You play a young explorer who has discovered a series of wall-to-wall chambers covered with coins. Unfortunately, there's a curse that prevents the explorer from leaving the chamber without all of the coins. The good news is that you have the brain to guide the explorer through all the chambers as efficiently as possible to get all the coins, escape, and hopefully retire. Thankfully you've got plenty of room in your pockets to carry all of those coins.
About Wallbound Explorer
There are plenty of exploring puzzle games that can be anywhere from super long and slow to super short and quick. This game is certainly in the latter category which is nice considering how busy the average schedule can be. It also presents the content in a way that is easy to absorb and you instantly understand everything that's happening. There will be certain moments when you may need to take a few seconds to experiment and see how things work. You'll get it soon enough and still have time to spare when it comes to completing the levels.
How to Play
Wallbound Explorer is a 2D top-down game about collecting all the coins in a chamber using only the keyboard.
Controls
- W/Up Arrow - Move Up
- S/Down Arrow - Move Down
- A/Left Arrow - Move Left
- D/Right Arrow - Move Right
The goal of each level is to collect all of the coins in the chamber before the time runs out. The timer will be shown at the top of the screen in the center. The explorer can only move in straight lines and is at the mercy of momentum. Once you collect all the coins, you can move on to the next level.
The levels are all contained chambers made up of bright blocks. They create all the walls and will be arranged to create a maze the explorer needs to navigate. Being at the whim of momentum means that the explorer has no control over how far they travel. When they head in any direction, they will keep moving in that direction until they hit a wall. Other elements such as colored blocks will be introduced that will move to another spot on contact and you will need to bounce between them to be able to get to new positions where you can collect hard-to-reach coins.
Tips and Tricks
This is a fast-paced puzzle game where you need to be able to think quickly and determine the hard-to-reach areas as soon as possible. Work from the outside of the chamber towards the center to identify the straggler coins. Be careful not to carelessly bump into switch blocks which can waste time.
