This entry is a good looking and playable entry. You are a succubus that has to heal soldiers and deal damage with kisses. This latter part is a nice twist on the health theme, and provides a way to make a healer do damage that is consistent with the fantasy theme.

There are several maps to play through, in fact a rather large amount of content for a speedhack game.

The game is difficult, although I did manage to play through all maps in the end. The best tactic I could find was to try to 'trap' monsters on a corner in such a way that they are not moving around you, thus protecting your soldiers from harms way. This feels a bit like an unsatisfying strategy, because it relies on the path finding of the monsters being broken. Were it that the monsters have better pathfinding, the game would be much harder to play.

For that reason I'm not giving it the highest marks, but overall solid entry!

You are running a surgery, and patients come in with various ills. You could try to prescribe some medicine to cure them, but where is the fun in that? Or you could prescribe something that makes the condition much, much worse.

The game cleverly lets you choose between pairs of prescriptions with opposing effects. So you could make the condition better, or you could make it worse. Further twist is that patients can be allergic to prescriptions, which gives them an extra illness that you have to cure with yet another medicine (mercifully, I haven't discovered a patient with an infinite loop yet)

So yes, you might choose to cure the patients. But eventually the timer runs out, and the game positively encourages you to toy around. It's a lot like lemmings, really.

Especially impressive is the morphing effect: it interpolates between animation frames, creating a very smooth animation from a small number of hand-drawn frames.

Brilliant, sick, childishblobotic humour. Love it!
