A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

"Hello, dear friends and admirers! My name is Sir Johnlocke Heroson, the finest knight in the realm.

"In this digital entertainment unit, experience first hand as I single-handedly, with no aid whatsoever, escape the demon in this evil castle. I am so valiant that I needn't a single bit of assistance in my quest, and there was certainly no pesky mage present to help when things got tough.

"Enjoy!"

In this role reversal, you control the hero's ambient side kick, not the hero himself. Place tiles by pressing left click to block the villain's orb spells, or to trick the hero into jumping over the monster's dash. If you make a mistake, you can break a block by clicking it again. Be careful, as the monster can dash through blocks, so you can't simply encase yourself to win!
