*** Apple's Best of 2012 Hidden Gems ***

Has to be be downloaded over a Wi-Fi connection.

Discover the beautiful world of Nihilumbra and join Born on his adventure to find himself whilst trying to escape from his inevitable curse. Born was created from the absolute nothingness: The Void. But somehow he separates himself from the black emptiness and appears in the world. This is where his long odyssey begins, in which he will learn how to use the colors around him to gain powerful abilities and transform the world.

However, his experiences come at a high price. The Void must be one. It seeks to reclaim him and will never stop chasing him, destroying everything in its path along the way. To survive, Born will have to condemn the earth he walks to its inevitable obliteration by The Void...

FEATURES:

- More than 10 hours of gameplay.

- “Old school” playability inspired by classic games but redesigned for tactile devices.

- The ability to change ground physics using five different colors.

- Use five worlds as your canvas and transform them at your will.

- Two different control schemes: Classic buttons or tilting sensor.

- Original soundtrack composed by Álvaro Lafuente. Headphones recommended.

- Unlockable surprise on completion of the game. Replayability assured.

Everything about this game is beautiful. **edit 04/16/2020** This game has always been great, it has tested my platforming and puzzle solving skills again and again. I have been playing this game for about 7 years, and it has amazing replayability. Especially with a little easter egg they throw in at the end. You unlock a new “language”, but it actually isn’t a language. It’s all text that the game developers put in there as a joke, and let me tell you, those were some quality jokes right there! Everything from the Simpson’s reference at the beginning of the game to horribly misspelled words and grammatical errors, this new easter egg is absolutely amazing. If you haven’t gotten this game yet, please do. Not only is it super fun, but hilarious. All you gotta do is beat the game! It won’t let me put 10/5 stars...

非常优秀非常好的一款游戏

希望以后还能遇到这种优秀的好玩的有深度的游戏,这款游戏制作的非常的用心,这么多年来是我玩过的闯关类里最优秀的一个,不知道是游戏团队解散了还是怎么了没继续更新下去,还是期待会有新的关卡更新

One of the greats

Great games like these are almost impossible to find anymore. The App Store is full of junk games with no imagination or soul, only marketing. We need more games like this and more developers like this. One of the great classics.

Love it!

I'm still on the volcano level so don't know if there is a glitch awaiting me on the last level. Just the right amount of difficulty and I only had to check a walkthrough once so far. GREAT voice acting! Please make more!

I luv it

This was one of my favorite games back when I got my first iPhone. Such a shame that it hasn’t been updated in 5 years. Could you please release an update to this beautiful game?
