What is On the Peril of Parrots?
Control P.
O. L. L. I, a Procedural Operating Layered Linguistic Intelligence, in a puzzle game framed as a mysterious experiment involving a Scientist, an Assistant, and a Stakeholder. Each challenge asks players to turn all available spaces into a single color. The game offers more than 100 puzzles, along with options to skip a puzzle, undo moves, or reset a challenge; each of these actions costs Cookies. Cookies also serve as a resource to manage: running low can lead to being judged a failure and having the experiment restarted. The store description calls the undo supply unlimited, but qualifies that claim as technical. Planning moves matters because puzzle actions draw on the same resource used for recovery and skipping.
