Description

In a whole new kind of puzzle-action platformer, you do not control Pompom the hamster, but instead use your quick thinking to help him by placing and controlling platforms, obstacles and items around him. Analyze and use everything that comes your way: build bridges, place springs, prune vines... Be clever, be quick, be efficient. Travel through outer space to beaches full of flying fish, to ancient temples lost in the jungle, as you help Pompom outsmart his enemies and rescue his boy Hoshi from Captain Cat and his crew.

One day Pompom was working up a sweat on his hamster wheel, when Hoshi the boy burst into the room, showing a hand of beautiful jewels that fell from the sky with a great ‘BOOM’. When suddenly, Captain Cat and his gang appeared and kidnapped the little boy through a portal to space. Now Pompom must go on an adventure to save his boy Hoshi from the eight Space Cat Pirates!

Pompom: The Great Rescue is "free-to-try", an in-app purchase is required to unlock the full game.

- Play a platformer in a new way, moving not the character but the platforms.
- Explore a beautiful tribute to the SNES classics and the 16 bits retro era.
- Adventure across 8 worlds in an epic space rescue: jump on flying fish, dodge nasty arrows, dispel vengeful spirits, swim past piranhas, battle flying saucers, and more.
- Pompom defeats enemies and collects items, and you can use those items and interact with the world to get him to victory.
- Use every item at your disposal: fly out of cannons, swing on ropes, slash vines, splash honey, freeze time and much more.

you NEED to add stickers

That is the one thing that this app is missing, I would absolutely love some stickers (you can even add a sticker when you finish an achievement)

Lil Pips ,

Both graphical options make the game unplayable

You’ve played puzzlers like this before (but not too often). I tend to like them. You have blocks (normally a limited amount), and the character runs and jumps and you have to place the blocks to help them get goodies and reach the end.

Similar to Lemmings but you only have to worry about one character.

The bad part is that there are two graphical ways to play the game: smooth and pixel, and they are BOTH AWFUL. Pixel is done so poorly that I frequently cannot tell how many blocks I have remaining, and Smooth is so much worse that I cannot even read words most of the time. This is on a nice big iPad Pro screen too.

Unlike other reviewers I didn’t have problems beating the tutorial or continuing to play beyond it without paying (I’m not sure how much you get, because I can’t stand playing it, but it’s at least three levels).

I would absolutely not even consider purchasing until this game has words and numbers that can actually be read.

Great gba aesthetic, cute style, nostalgic, and super fun gameplay!!! Give this one a chance :)
