Description
Solve BRUTAL puzzles, get your sword back and get rich on the way!

TOTALLY FREE NO STRINGS ATTACHED DEMO HERE: https://www.dropbox.com/s/h7yhsdr0990j9xl/Montana.zip (XNA/.net redistributables required!). Try it out for nothin'.

Montana Brown's sword has been stolen by some punk kid who thinks that being young makes him cool Well it doesn't, and Montana is coming out of retirement to teach that snot-nosed little brat a lesson in humility. But to catch the kid,Montana will need to solve devilish puzzles designed by an engineer and two mathematicians, and travel through 4 superlatively original worlds: 'Forest', 'Ice', 'Islands', and 'Expert'.

You ever play Sokoban, the crate pushing game? Think it gets pretty hard? Well if Sokoban is checkers, montana Brown and the beanstalk is Go. The puzzle mechanics are simple - push the boulders, hit the buttons, avoid the spiders. Put the rock in the water to make a stepping stone, but if you do, you won't be getting it back! But simple mechanics don't mean a simple game, and Montana will have to be SUPER SMART to catch the punk kid.

Note: this is NOT a 'Sokoban Clone', though it may seem so on the surface. The mechanics are fundamentally different: you have the ability to push pairs of boulders. No existing sokoban puzzles are contained in this game, and most existing sokoban puzzles would be trivial to solve in this game. If you don't see why this makes the game significantly different in mechanics to sokoban, then I suggest you play the demo :)

Apologies for sound error in the trailer. New one is ON THE WAY. This game has hella sound.


FEATURES:
- 32 (with more to come!) mind-bending puzzles, with treasure to collect for the advanced player.
- Varied puzzle styles: in the Ice world, everything slides, and so you'll need to be more careful!
- Difficult puzzles, but instant restarts so you don't get frustrated.
- NEVER cheap. We HATE cheap puzzles. If you've got the wrong idea you will know for sure.
- Plot that can be best described as a cross between 'Rat Race' and '50 Cent: Blood on the Sand'.

QUESTIONS:
- Why is 'puzzle' not a category on this thing!? I have called it 'adventure strategy' in lieu of this... I have also ticked 'local co-op' because in our tests we have found it is a lot of fun to solve puzzles in teams....

I'm sorry but this is like every other blockpusher game out there in my eyes.
How many blocks i can push all at once doesn't matter one bit....i hate games that use blocks and boring puzzles.

Put this up on a free games site online, not on Steam. Voted No.

I would prefer something with better graphics and sound - The original Zork game for example.
