WHAT IS SLIDING HERO
Sliding Hero is a story-driven explorative puzzle game with unique mechanics: the main character will move in a single direction until hitting an obstacle, changing the way to approach each puzzle.

PLOT
Luca Sicomoro is an Italian noble that finds himself stuck inside a strange cavern. Help him find a way out by solving puzzles and revealing the secret behind the maze.
