As players explore across the worlds, they will encounter and interact with alien environments and biomechanical devices. These offer additional complexities to the game's puzzles, as well as add thematic and environmental variance in the worlds traveled.

Meanwhile, each world has its own ability that is tied to the traits held within and is manifested as abilities when the player takes it on its back as an orb, allowing it to utilize the world's powers to solve puzzles in worlds without. These abilities can be used to uncover hidden pathways, secret items, fire projectiles, or trigger switches, just to name a few.

Finally, players will encounter and fight against Mighty Guardians who protect each world, leading to fierce battles of wit and dexterity. Each fight is unique and requires mastery of new mechanics.

Will you be able to unlock the secrets of all the worlds and master the powers within the orbs?
