You've wandered into a dark shop in the open air market and, after some searching, discovered a mysterious artifact that attracts the curiosity of you and your traveling companion. Alas, you should never have touched it as you and your grumpy companion are now stuck together. Nothing you've tried has been able to separate your hand from the hand of your dear friend.
Unfortunately, things are only getting worse as you have managed to anger the shopkeeper during your frantic attempt to get unstuck. He has called up on his other shopkeeper friends to keep you from escaping. Now, every shopkeeper in town is looking to give you a good thrashing.
The only weapon you have is each other!
Use your friendly companion as your weapon as you swing him about to take out the angry shopkeepers. Each of the companions have a different trait that makes them better suited for taking out or avoiding the angry horde of shopkeepers. Can you find a friend or family member to help you figure out how to remove yourself from the Chinese Finger Trap and explain to the shopkeepers how it was just a big misunderstanding?
Press on the Controls button from the main screen to see the controls for walking, jumping, switching main characters, and attacking.
