Our take on Transmogrify
The premise gives substantial space to the strange laboratory setting, retro presentation, and transformation weapon. The stated structure is a 75-level 2D platformer where converted monsters serve environmental puzzle and navigation functions.
What is Transmogrify?
Play as Chris, a janitor trapped inside Future Perfect Labs after its specimens escape.
The Transmogrify cannon changes monsters into tools and objects that alter the environment, supporting puzzle-solving and platforming. Progress through 75 levels arranged across four worlds, combining exploration, action, and environmental manipulation. Chris investigates the emergency laboratory lockdown with help from an AI companion named Grace. The game is a surreal 2D platformer with a retro-inspired presentation, graphics, and soundtrack. Its story follows Chris as he navigates laboratory hazards and searches for an exit. The store description says players can begin the action without long tutorials.
