In order to help King Shorty, Archmage Tip has unleashed his magical prowess, and he's been able to cast a powerful spell that was capable of fragmenting time in turns.
In each level of the Tower you must reach the stairs before the turns run out, otherwise there will be a gnome with a crown on his head no more!

The King has many enemies, each one with different patterns and traits that shape the way you move and interact in a level.
Nagas that ignore the holy power of the sunlight.
Evil gnome warlocks that teleport with a lethal beam.
Imps who like to take a nap every other step.
Grumpy dwarves, greedy goblins, and more...
Defend the life of the gnome monarch at all costs!

Find the best path to escape the Tower, and engage yourself with handcrafted levels that are filled with many and varied types of traps, mechanisms and enemies.
Windows and Lights that will stun or purify your enemies.
Teleportation Platforms that help you, and the invaders, move accross a level.
Dangerous Spikes that kill anything that stands on them.
Enchanted Doubloons, Spiked Chests, and more...
Study the levels, be mindful of your steps, choose the right course of action and your escape will be certain!

The Telepaty Spell will allow you to know the advisors of King Shorty during his escape. Expect nothing but extravagant individuals!
Who knows what you might discover?
Someone could be hiding a very unexpected secret...
