Gameplay

The game uses a top-down, maze-style stage layout. You guide a boulder as it rolls through narrow paths, using careful direction changes to avoid hazards and enemy contact. Progress usually depends on finding the correct route, triggering mechanisms, or clearing blocked passages. Timing matters because the boulder’s momentum can make tight turns difficult. The game is single-player and stage-based, with layouts becoming more complex as you advance.

Strategy

Learn each stage layout before rushing forward. In narrow corridors, make small adjustments early so the boulder does not overshoot the turn. Watch enemy patrol patterns and use walls or corners to separate groups when possible. If a stage has breakable obstacles, clear the most important path first before exploring side routes.

Cheats

No cheats or unlockables available

Tips

Tips and tricks

  • Give yourself room before sharp turns because momentum can carry the boulder past the entrance.
  • Study enemy movement patterns first to avoid getting trapped in blind spots.
  • When a stage has multiple branches, focus on the main objective route before exploring extras.
