About this game
"The struggle itself toward the heights is enough to fill a man's heart. One must imagine Sisyphus happy. - Albert Camus" Become Sisyphus and try to roll the boulder up the mountain. Numerous obstacles will hinder your progress. You can move using the arrow keys and adjust the direction in which you push the boulder with the left and right mouse buttons.Features:Of course, the boulder will always roll back down. A variety of obstacles, including spikes, ice, scarecrows, bombs, and arrows, will obstruct your journey with the boulder. Pay attention to the boulder's inertia. An abrupt change in direction to dodge obstacles may have irreversible consequences. A selection of boulders is available. Earn new boulders as rewards for your efforts, including some that are significantly more difficult to move. MultiplayerPlay together with up to 8 players. Roll your boulder while speeding up or slowing down with the new control scheme. You can also use the new control scheme in single-player. It offers a new alternative for those who felt the original controls left little room to show their skill. Climb together with friends on a dedicated multiplayer map, or use cannons, catapults, and more to get in each other’s way. This game is an experience of the struggle of Sisyphus. It requires a great deal of patience for its slow-paced play. In this game, even with mastery of the controls, you cannot move quickly.
