Connect on the official website to discover more about what awaits you in Diego’s world atwww.funkylabrat.com.
The Funky Lab Rat challenge: Get out! Stop time, organize, synchronize, and re-start time!
The action is set in a lab, where players become Diego, a very cool, super-powered funky lab rat who decides it’s time to break free! Player’s mission is to make it through the final lab gate by crossing over pits and overcoming obstacles! All the items must be carefully placed and synchronized for the escape to work. If your synchronization doesn’t work, you can try again by rewinding time so you don’t have to re-start the level every time.
One of the 81 challenges in Funky Lab Rat is figuring out how to stand on end three columns in the pit and put boxes on top of each column to create an escape bridge across the deadly pit. Once you have it figured out, stop the action (gravity, too!), then re-start the action and make your escape!
But, it’s one thing to create an escape bridge, but it’s quite another challenge to cross that bridge when the columns are teetering and the boxes are moving. It’s not so easy! Getting through 81 levels will keep your little rat busy for hours! So, how resourceful a rat are you?
Funky Lab Rat is rated PEGI 3+, ESRB “E”, and USK 0.
The game will be available in English, Spanish, German, French and Italian at launch.
