Rating / Parents' Guide
Comic Mischief, Mild Cartoon Violence
This is an action game in which players assume the roles of Vita-Boy and Mina-Girl as they pilot a ship through host bodies. From a side-scrolling perspective, players guide the ship around hazards and wipe out pathogens by zapping laser-like Vitamin Beams at them. Bacteria enemies pop out of existence in mild explosions. The game contains a handful of instances of bathroom humor: mucus drips/bubbles emerging from characters' noses; a bacterium proclaiming, “I make disaster pants!”
System(s)
Nintendo Switch
Players take control of one of two characters, Vita-Boy and Mina-Girl, who use the microscopic Capsule Ship to fight off viruses and other enemies hosting within the Sable family, which makes them ill. The ship itself is controlled with an individual Joy-Con and motion controls, which are used to control and ship and execute attacks. Main levels are navigated using the tilt controls of the Switch. Various "sub-games" are also present throughout the adventure.
