LEAF RUNNERS — THE LONG WAY HOME

Your friend is waiting on the porch. Collect cannabis leaves, dodge a fictional cartoon drug squad, and take down three different bosses on your way home. A single-player side-scrolling adventure for adults.

• Three neighborhoods: Mossy Outskirts, Sunset Block, and Rooftop Garden.

• Double jump, throw attacks, duck, and dash through danger.

• Sergeant Shield rushes with a riot shield. Captain Skyraid attacks with a jetpack. The giant Commissioner unleashes ground slams and shockwaves.

• Gold lightning gives 10 seconds of rapid fire. Blue shields protect you for 8 seconds. Hearts restore health.

• Boss checkpoints let you retry with full health and restored arena power-ups, while keeping your leaves.

• Collect at least 12 leaves and reach your friend for a cartoon smoke-break ending.
