Our take on Sling Ming
The game’s movement system gives route planning and swing timing a central role, trading broad conventional traversal for more structured puzzle solving. Progression also ties new abilities and story details to advancement through the adventure.
What is Sling Ming?
Sling Ming combines action with physics, timing, and logic puzzles in an intergalactic adventure.
Princess Ming investigates the never-ending earthquakes affecting her kingdom after discovering an old door beneath the castle and star coordinates beside three locks. The Oxylane allows movement through the air, around corners, and against gravity.
