Story

The players will play as the character "Mister Slime" in his adventure to protect the Slime Village from the evil enemy Axons.[2]

Gameplay

Gameplay of the game is based largely around the stylus and touch-screen capabilities of the Nintendo DS. The stylus is primarily used to pull Mister Slime's four elastic arms to different anchor points spread throughout the levels. On top of that, players are able to send Mister Slime flying on a gust of wind and provide him air bubbles underwater.[3] Both functions are executed by the player blowing into the system's built-in microphone.[4]

Graphics and Sound

The presentation is comparable to Loco Roco or World of Goo with physics that feature and bouncing characters. Also similar to both games is the characteristic elasticity playing an important role in the core gameplay.[3]
