The premise, in the publisher's words
Parallax is a first-person puzzle game with two overlapping worlds. Weave back and forth between black and white as you try to be in the right place, in the right dimension, at the right time. Use switches, boosters and gravity to help you reach the exit. Can you conquer every mind-bending level?
How it plays
It is played from a first person perspective. It is a single-player game with no multiplayer component. There are 13 achievements to unlock.
