In La Mulana you play a whip toting archaeologist by the name of Professor Lemeza who is chasing after his father in the name of exploration and adventure. Set in a 2D platformer style, this puzzler will challenge your timing and problem solving as you scour the ruins and try to solve the mysteries of La Mulana."
The motion-controlled maverick of a console that had everyone from age 9 to 99 swing a TV remote to bowl and painstakingly recreating themselves as Miis, had its share of hits, but even so, some titles didn’t quite get their due.
LA-MULANA is a game that is going to take gamers back to a simpler time. Games in the late 80s and into the early 90s were challenging and relentless. LA-MULANA takes this challenge and combines a few things, mystery, platforming, and something which feels like Lode Runner. While this isnt a game for everyone, for the right fan this is a great game.
