There are lots of things that this little mandrake will have to hide from, and these huge scary eyes are certainly one of them! Use one of the unique game mechanics by pressing SHIFT to hide yourself as a plant. You may hide for as long as you wish, but you cannot move the player while hiding.
As you make your way through the dark mental cave, you will have to use items to complete this puzzle platformer. You can pick up items and store them in your inventory, ready for you to place back down for when you need them!
