Find Slimies new houses! Players compete to stack the tallest pillar to gain a high ground — which helps Slimies in spotting new locations for housing. To stack a pillar block, players time their space-bars along with the music beats. There are also phrases or sentences intertwined, that players have to input correctly before pressing space-bar. With these two objectives carried out, Slimies can then jump on the newly stacked pillar block!

What’s more, there are two additional single-player modes, where players strive for stacking the tallest pillar in High-score Mode, as well as surviving as long as possible, in Survival Mode, before the camera catches up!
