Our take on Sleepwalker
The defining setup is indirect control: Ralph must steer a sleeping Lee through danger and get him home without waking him.
What is Sleepwalker?
Lee wanders through six large stages while asleep, and Ralph the dog must lead him home without waking him.
Players direct Lee, clear enemies and obstacles from his route, and sometimes kick him upward to reach new areas. The journey crosses rooftops, a zoo, a crypt, and a construction site. Ralph can also take forms such as a bat or become buoyant with helium to solve puzzles. Bonus stages reveal Ralph’s imagined consequences for Lee’s nighttime wandering. Sleepwalker combines platforming with puzzles built around steering a vulnerable character through hazardous environments.
