In Escape Goat 2, a puzzle platformer, you guide a small goat through a dungeon made up of single-screen rooms. Each room is a puzzle involving switches, moving blocks, traps and other machinery, and the goat has help from a mouse friend that can reach places and trigger mechanisms the goat cannot.
The challenge comes from working out the right sequence of moves and then carrying it out with good timing. It is a single-player game that can be played in short sessions, one room at a time. Escape Goat 2 suits puzzle fans who like clever level design and a mix of thinking and light action.
