See these small yellow fellows? They love running. They are ready to do it every day, all day. And they aren’t scared by the obstacles awaiting them. And if you are not afraid of challenges, you can join them. The race will continue for several rounds, at the end of each part of the players will be dropped out. Thus, the number of runners will diminish with every round. Your chances of winning the crown of the champion will get tighter and tighter. Are you willing to try and prove yourself?
Pico Park: Classic Edition
The gameplay is extremely addictive and requires calculations and a well-cooperated effort. A group of at least 2 and up to 10 players play the game. Characters look like cats and have cute sounding names like Speedy, Slack, Sidearms, etc. (for some reason the developers favor the letter s). Game antagonists are ghosts, green crawling things and many more. However, because of the unusual graphics design, you cannot make out a lot of details, just the colour and what this figure does.
In order to reach success, you need to pay attention to time. When the red light is on, nobody should move, unless you want to ruin the round. The highest obstacles need to be climbed as a team by stacking players on top of each other. Jumping over bridges and gaps requires participants to follow some order to jump in a particular succession. Some of the characters need to be avoided, like malicious ghosts, for example. As the ghost hovers up there, just make a run for it but do it slowly and one by one. If you run all at once the ghost will detect the commotion and attack you.
Another challenge is facing a line of springs. They work like jumping boards but be careful not to stand on them once the red light hits. Once in mid-air, it becomes very difficult not to move as the light switch is on, so you have to plan ahead as a group on what you’re going to do next. Finally, if you encounter a massive block, join your efforts and push. Usually, these blocks are found near the end, so that’s a good sign if you see one.
The most important thing, however, is obtaining the green key which can be placed higher up in some impossible-to-reach locations. Don’t be afraid to jump off the cliff to get the key, the physics of the game is calculated by the developers, so you’re most likely to get out of there after several attempts. Be sure to try out this wildly popular game if you are up for the challenge.
