Play Overview
Annalynn (2023) is a running, jumping, and collecting game that recreates a classic arcade challenge with more expansive levels. You work to collect every coin on the stage while avoiding enemies. While it appears easy, getting a perfect score requires detailed learning of how enemies move around each stage.
You jump from platform to platform, aiming to collect every coin. Simultaneously, you need to avoid the snakes that chase you, like the ghosts in Pac-Man, although here they can use tunnels to catch you out. Again, like Pac-Man, you can use a gem power-up to temporarily defeat the snakes for bonus points. However, here, if you get hit you can keep going but with a score penalty.
The result is an arcade-looking game where you can't die. This makes the challenge all about achieving the highest score by the final stage. The ultimate goal is to get a perfect score, but to do this requires deep knowledge of each stage and enemy strategy.
Our examiner, Ben Kendall, first checked Annalynn 15 months ago. It was re-examined by Ellen Robertson and updated 7 weeks ago.
