This cheerful platform-style game lacks any sort of customization, but younger players are nonetheless sure to have a good time. You can skip the rather lengthy background story by hitting the Escape key. Basically, you control a small, purple, blob-like creature named Glace, who must navigate various platforms and chasms while collecting gems and knocking out odd-looking enemies. The end goal is to collect three magic beads. The two-dimensional cartoonish graphics are sunny and bright, and the music fits the mood of the game well. Children won't have a problem maneuvering their characters with the keyboard, but the controls can't be reconfigured. Nor can you resize the screen or even mute the volume, but since the game's totally free, we can only complain so much. Kids who don't have much experience with video games will be delighted with this download.

Great game overall.
BlackWolf57August 27, 2013
Pros
Great game with unlockable characters(skins of the main character).
Cons
Has a virus in the game which destroyed my MP3, and it lacks customization.
Summary
MacAfee deletes as spyware, Norton ignores
June 1, 2011
Pros
Fun, fast moving, lots of jumping and running
Cons
At level 3 I finished the level and there was a witch doctor you had to get past to continue; never figured out the moves to do that. Not a big game player but spent a lot of time enjoying this.
Summary
Fun while it lasted, never got beyond the witch doctor at the end of swamp level which made it somewhat less interesting but started a new game and applied what I learned and had more fun. I downloaded this and played it every week or so for a few months; then I had to get new security software (McAfee) on my laptop for work. McAfee identified it as malware and deleted the game AND the download and when I tried another download to test deleted that too as soon as the download saved, before I even tried to install. Before that I had Norton which ignored it entirely. Probably a keylogger or something. Too bad.

Pros
when you finish the game once you gotta play it again to collect more diamond for new abilitys. That way game can have more fun.
Cons
too much talking between the characters.
Summary
Good well-made game
deejay169April 6, 2005
Pros
This game feels very solid and well put together. The graphics are cutesy (very Nintendo) but that shouldn't let older players be put off and there are some neat little special effects. <p> <p>The control system takes a bit of getting used to but is rewarding once you get the *feel* of it. Wall bounce and super jump techniques let you get around the levels more than you might think at first glance. <p> <p>Story elements fit in well with the game and there are some good set pieces.
Cons
The actual content of the levels tends to be fairly similar throughout. Could do with some different level objects as the game progresses.
Summary
Best game ever!! I'm completly hooked!
PurpleCowsRuleMarch 21, 2005
Pros
Great storyline, good graphics, easy to use controls, a smooth ride with very few bumps. Easy enough for a six-year-old to play, yet difficult enough to keep the pros sweating.
Cons
If you somehow lose this game, you might go into depression.
