Gameplay
Players progress through a series of worlds, each with a given set of levels. Completion of the levels in one world (in any order) opens access to the next world. Individual levels in each world present a variety of challenges: some are puzzle/logic oriented, others are maze/exploration levels, while others again involve action challenges as Stinky and Loof try to evade traps and monsters. Wonderland is distributed online on a try-before-you-buy basis. A free Windows demo is available for download at Midnight Synergy.
