About This Game

A perfect place. A city without traffic. A dog that doesn't poop. All products of the brilliant mind of Dr. X, but hell hath no fury like a mad scientist fired by a giant corporation. In this unique action-puzzler you take control of TOM, a virus created for one purpose: revenge.

Hack your way through brain scrambling puzzles while maneuvering through a thumb cramping maze of enemies. Team up through over 50 cooperative levels in what MMGN is calling "The most addictive co-op game we've played since Portal 2." And if the over 100 levels aren't enough, you and your friends can destroy each other again and again in battle mode to determine just who is the supreme virus.

Key Features:

Single Player mode with over 50 levels across 6 distinct areas
Cooperative mode (for up to 4 players) with over 50 additional levels in which "friendships will be destroyed"
Battle for supreme virus-itude by battling your friends in Battle Mode
Evolving mechanics which ratchet up the difficulty from lollipop to soul crushing
An animated tale full of dark humor, malfunctioning robots, and little girl screams
