With too many tricks and traps to count, you’ll quickly forget how many times you’ve attempted a level. With new moves to master, like dashing and flying, the challenge ramps up with you!
Take on extra challenges to uncover hidden secrets!
Seek out a roster of shiny collectibles by completing even more brutal puzzle sequences! With enough practice, you can unlock secret levels, customize your outfit, plug into catchy tunes, and bring to light a secret ending with even more courses to play. If your inner completionist craves a 2D collectathon with tangible rewards, this is the one!
Laugh, cry, and scratch your head in this retro game celebration!
Wunderling DX tells a touching tale of breaking free from the pack with a desire to change the world, even with the odds stacked against you. What starts as a retro game love song soon becomes an unexpected thrill-ride with twists, turns, and alternate endings. All wrapped up in a humorous script from the wild mind of Alex Faciane, accompanied by Ratvader’s decade-bending soundtrack!
