Morphblade

Game • 2017

In Morphblade you move around a grid slicing, smashing and bursting waves of nasty red bugs. Each tile you move to transforms you into a different weapon: on a Blades hex you can slice enemies on either side of you, on an Arrow you can launch yourself through two enemies in a row.

Ages 8+, but every child is different

The game requires spatial reasoning and strategic planning to navigate a grid under pressure. While the combat is abstract and non-gory, the fast-paced nature of the gameplay makes it better suited for older children who can handle quick-thinking tasks.
