The Stolen Son
A downloadable game for Windows

They hid your egg in the royal treasury. Guarded, sealed, untouchable.
Sure.
Play as a very determined mama dragon breaking into a palace to get her baby back.
Move through five escalating areas—from the courtyard to the throne room—smashing walls and making a mess of everything in your path.
Eat mooncakes to grow longer, stronger, and harder to stop.
Nothing in this palace was built with you in mind.
Good thing you don’t plan on stopping.

Movement
Use the arrow keys to move.
The dragon can move in any direction except directly backwards.
After breaking a wall or entering a new room, you have a short moment to choose your next direction.
If no input is given, the dragon continues forward.
Mooncakes
Eat mooncakes to gain power.
Each one increases your length and strength.
Walls
After a few seconds, a wall in the room will flash and begin closing in.
Breaking Walls
To progress, break walls at their weak point once you have enough power.
Your current strength vs. required strength is shown.
Levels
Break enough walls to open a path to the next room.
The dragon will rush forward automatically—after that, you can choose a new direction.
Failure
You fail if:
- a wall hits you
- you collide with yourself
But the dragon won’t give up—you’ll try again.
Victory
Reach the treasury and reclaim your egg.
Mission complete… for now.
