At 9 pixels tall Zwamman is the world's greatest hero who lives under mushrooms in a dark damp forest. As usual he's lost in the dark with many scary monsters lurking about. Using your spotlight you'll need to help him find crystals which he can light up once found. Once a crystal is lit you can use the light to make a path between all the crystals to his home and light up the forest.
The game has infinite puzzle screens, and at any time you can choose to swap to a more or less difficult level. Difficulty ranges very broadly from simple for young children to difficult for adults.
Zwamman is played with mouse and keyboard and also plays well in local co-op with 1 player controlling Zwamman using the arrow keys and player 2 controlling the spotlight using the mouse.
This is a slightly spooky videogame well suited to children. Apart from interfering with the light the monsters cause no harm, there is no penalty and no pressure. The monsters may look scary but are not threatening once interacted with, and the player can use the spotlight to shoo them away from Zwamman.
TL;DR:
Zwamman is a zero pressure single screen puzzle game in which you have to use your light (mouse) to help Zwamman (keyboard) find crystals in dark forests and swamps. Use the crystals to light a path to Zwamman's home and reveal the true nature of the scary monsters! Relaxing puzzles with variable difficulty for all ages.
