Babel no Tou

Rearrange stair-shaped stones to build a route to each floor’s exit. Every lift costs power, so a workable staircase also has to fit your remaining moves.

About this game

Indy climbs a tower by rearranging its unusual stair-shaped stones. Carry one at a time, place it to extend a route and reach a supported, unblocked exit. Stones keep their orientation, and carrying one limits movement across drops and vines. Each lift consumes power, making unnecessary moves costly. Mural rooms also contain pictures needed for the summit. If a floor becomes impossible, restarting lets you rethink the sequence at the cost of a mistake.
