Revision as of 15:52, 4 December 2010
Hank's car broke down, and when he knocks on the closest house's door for help, the silent inhabitant just points at him and make him collapse.
A puzzle/action game where you have to hop from rope to pole to collect keys that will let you proceed to the next level. 13 levels in the shareware package, and 10 more for registered users.
Puzzles involve ropes along which you move freely in both directions, fireman (?) poles that pull you either up or down.
Story
Hank was roaring down a dark country road when his car broke down. At that instant, the clouds decided to let loose their burden of rain.
The blackness was of pitch, but in the glare of his headlights Hank was able to see a house about a block away. Having not much of a choice, he trotted over, hoping for assistance.
After pounding the door until his knuckles were raw, recieving no answer, Hank started back to his car. Once he turned around, however, he heard the door open behind him. Hank spun around on his heel to stand face to face with a small robed figure. He jumped back in surprise, but the figure did nothing.
"Uh... He-Hello?"
No reply.
"My car broke down about a block back in that direction." He gestured. "Can I use your phone?"
Again, no reply.
"I mean, I -- I need some help, here."
The figure pointed at him. Suddenly Hank felt strange. His head started spinning and he collapsed.
When he awoke, Hank found himself in the middle of a field, with nothing anywhere in sight except for large structures, somewhat resembling the climbing sets in a playground. Hank knew not what else to do, so he grabbed a rope and began to climb. Maybe somewhere up here is the way out of this hellish place. There has to be a way out.
... Hasn't there?
Instructions
- The arrow keys move Hank in those directions.
- Silver poles let you slide down. Golden poles let you slide up.
- You can climb on ropes.
- To open a door you need a key.
Items and mechanisms
- Hearts give HP. A-Js are 1-Ups.
- Items such as grapes, floppy disks, dollar bills, and apples give you extra points.
- Stepping on springboards bounces Hank up slightly.
- Blocks move around in your path.
Hazards
- If the rope is burning, find another route.
- Water and spikes are dangerous if landed on. Spikes will kill you even if you just touch the side.
- Watch out for lasers -- they zap you instantly. With flames, however, you have time to dodge.
- Snakes, Dwids, and noses pose a constant threat. Watch how they move.
Credits
And who is this mysterious M.O.S.H.?
Morphio - OmegAkira - Silverhawk - Hackman
