About Gem Twins
Two brothers, one pair of pixel-art boots to fill, and a clever trick up their sleeves: each can petrify himself to give the other a hand. Gem Twins blends puzzles with platforming and takes its inspiration from classic 8-bit console games.
You control both characters, swapping between them to solve each stage, so the real puzzle is working out who should do what and when. The platforming is solid and the colorful retro graphics give the whole thing a nostalgic feel. On a computer you play from the keyboard, steering left and right with A and D or the arrows, while on mobile there are on-screen controls. Fans of old platformers will feel right at home.
