• Gorilla Tag gives players a special fusion of thrilling gameplay and thought-provoking story in a world where technology is supreme. Take on the role of a brave gorilla and explore a beautiful but terrifying cyberpunk environment where the distinction between exploitation and evolution is hazy. You're not just going on an adventure when you jump through the chaotic terrain; you're on a mission to seek justice and destroy the oppressive powers that endanger the world and other living things.
  
  In order to overcome difficult hurdles, players in gorilla tag must use their dexterity and smart thinking. Here, you have to make your way through craggy platforms and floating towns; every jump is a step closer to recovering the natural beauty of a once-vibrant Earth. With a strong sledgehammer at your disposal, every push and pull brings you one step closer to the truth that lies behind the layers of pollution and steel.
