Our take on Axolotl is Dry
The adventure framing centers on the axolotl's journey home, while the actual play described is tightly focused on precision movement, hazards, and water loss. The oasis provides recovery between levels, but the route itself is governed by platforming challenges and speed.
What is Axolotl is Dry?
Guide a small axolotl back to its lake after an eagle carries it far away.
Cross desert obstacle courses with jumps, dashes, and wall slides, avoiding spikes and blades while navigating bouncy palms, coconuts, and portals between dimensions. Magical crystals replenish the dash ability along the route. In the desert heat, the axolotl’s water supply dwindles, so continued movement is necessary to keep going. At each level’s end, an oasis gives the axolotl a chance to recover before the journey continues. Reaching home involves combining obstacle navigation with fast, sustained movement.
