About the Game
You and a friend answer a call for help from a professor who has mysteriously disappeared. Take control of two tiny RC cars, drive through his maze-like home laboratory, overcome oversized obstacles, and uncover the strange experiments he left behind.
Every room turns the house into a playground for two tiny RC cars. Race across shelves, drift through cluttered desks, explore every location and piece together what really happened inside.
In this co-op journey your progress depends on working together. Solve puzzles and overcome challenges that require communication, timing, and both players doing their part.
Upgrade your RC cars with rope-swings, magnetic wheels, magnet grabs and other power-ups. Each new gadget opens up fresh way to exploration of the professor’s home.
The house keeps opening up as you progress. Unlock hidden rooms and move through familiar places in new ways.
