Description

Imps exist. Just beyond our limited perceptions and in numerous variety. Imps are responsible for your keys going missing or that missing sock from the laundry. Two clans want the imps. The Moebius clan from the 48th plane of existence and the Puckies from the ZX quadrant. Who will be the ultimate victor?

The Windows game Endless Forms Most Beautiful is a remake and enhancement of the similarly named ZX Spectrum game. The enhancements go beyond just graphics and sound.

There are similarities. You still play as Moebius or Pucky, you must gather all the imps from a screen to clear it, the screen wrap and teleporters still make you move up or down levels. New to this game are that some enemies have been enhanced (run at you or fire at you, etc.), there is a time limit, and imps drop bonus items or bombs. The bonus items will grant you speed, freeze enemies for a time, add to your time, etc. Bonus items must also be cleared to clear a level. A bomb will destroy anyone on the same level, when it explodes. This means you and/or the enemy. Also added is a two player option. In co-op mode, you and a friend try to gather all the imps and clear the level. In versus mode, the game selects three random levels. Both players try to gather as many imps as they can. The player with the most in the end, wins.
