What kind of players can enjoy the game?

The game is designed for everyone, having an easy accessibility in the controls (just need to tilt the controller to play!) and with only one action: brake. Also, the Family Mode adds elements to avoid players dying, allowing players that like cozy games to play and have fun. However, the gamer mode brings more speed, deathly elements and adds lots of challenges to the game, such as beating the clock, getting the badge for not losing lives or the Pro player badge for not using brakes.

Story Summary

Marupoyo is a unique chick born so round he can’t walk — he can only roll! Though initially mocked for his clumsiness, he becomes the village’s only hope when a massive tornado scatters his family across the kingdom.

Guided by the Queen of Nature, Marupoyo rolls through forests, icy mountains, sandy deserts and volcanoes to stop an exiled Alchemist whose experiments are destroying the world. Along the way, he rescues his siblings and proves that his unique way of moving is actually a superpower - always rolling forward! Without fear, he will restore peace and become the kingdom's greatest hero.
