Don’t worry about the game title. Punishment is definitely not a punishment because it is really a unique experience. One of those games that does not look good but makes it up with incredible gameplay. Another one of those games that prove that graphics mean crap if the gameplay rocks.
Punishment is a jump and run game with a twist. All the levels are stacked on top of each other and your task is always to reach the plattform in the current level that gets you in the next area. The difficulty is of course that if you miss a plattform you fall and if you are unlucky you could fall all the way down to level 1.
Not a nice feeling if you ask me. To make things worse several objects in the game change key game elements. The eye for instance rotates the complete level clockwise while the animals swap left and right movement. This is a big challenge but real fun as well.
The game can be played from any location even from usb devices because it does not have to be installed at all.
Punishment 2 is the sequel of the game created by the same author. It adds several new game elements which add even more excitement. A main switch has to be switched whenever you enter a level to open the exit. It remains open until you happen to fall down again.
This in turn means that you have to climb back down again to switch it again to be able to process into the next level. A two player mode has been integrated as well making it a tad easier at the beginning because both players do play simultaneously which means that one player could operate the switch while the second tries to reach the exit.
If the exit is reached both players will be teleported into the next level. If one player falls both players fall. This is a nice twist in gameplay that really makes this game worthwhile.
