DESCRIPTION

WireWay is an adventure puzzle game vaguely reminiscent of Lemmings or Downstream Panic!, though instead of assigning skills to a group of mindless rodents or manipulating environments to save a school of fish, players here take advantage of the main character's singular skill to reach their goal in each level. That character is Wiley Springer, a mischievous alien who must use his ability to spring from elastic wires to battle enemy aliens, avoid environmental obstacles, and collect stars on the way back to his spaceship. Gamers use their stylus and touch screen to launch Wiley through 48 different levels in "Quest" mode, or they can draw their own wires and create unique stages in "Puzzle" mode. And for those interested in multiplayer action, WireWay includes a wireless race mode for up to four local gamers. ~ Christopher Brown, All Game Guide
