Orbyss
You are a firefly of energy, navigating from Orb to Orb, giving them life, and solving puzzles to revive the mysterious universe around you. An evil shadow interferes with your quest and seems to grow ever more menacing. Can you and your allies stop it from taking over your world? Each chapter introduces a new mechanic, gradually increasing the challenge and complexity across more than 40 handcrafted rooms.
