Steg the slug must feed her offspring by catching worms, trapping them in bubbles, and guiding these bubbles through a network of pipes, right into the wide-open mouths of the little screamers…
The idea might sound clever, but the execution falls flat. I can’t detect any real strategy, other than blindly trying to find the exact spot to spit out a bubble and watching how far it goes before bursting. And once you know what to do, the implementation—tedious and repetitive—quickly wears down your patience.
Not everyone can be Lemmings.
