Wubly can move only to the right. You can perform various moves by pressing corresponding arrow keys in proper time and place. Cute and original.

This game manages to make a good impression. It's a pure-skill game, a bit like Jumper, where you have to press arrow buttons with perfect timing. Also a bit like Frets On Fire. This is not too difficult, at least not in the first part of the game. The different collectibles you can get in the game also adds up to this games longetivity.

Basically, this is a Simon game where you practice the game in slow mode, then repeat yourself in very fast mode. There really isn't time to react to much of what you see, and your timing has to be fairly tight. Only way to play then is to remember every single keystroke needed to proceed each level. Gets incredibly frustrating very, very fast, especially when you miss that last press of the Space key.

The whole thing about needing to eat, drink and sleep or your save games will be deleted is completely unnecessary punishment for a totally mindless task.

Difficulty aside, the game has many modes and many unlockables to speak for it, which gives it that little something extra special.
