Millie

Meet Millie the millipede, probably the only one of its kind that wants to become a pilot. Be a friend and help him on his adventure and guide him through tens of mazes in order to reach his destination and fulfill his dream.

From the first few seconds it’s really easy to figure out from where Millie gets its gameplay roots. As far as casual arcade games go, Millie looks great, and just so as to get it out of the way, in a sense it actually honors the two games from which it was inspired.

From a difficulty point of view, Millie upgrades the tough factor from Snake. This time, you don’t get a simple and obstacle-free arena, you have to manage through tens of challenging mazes and some are built in a way that if you don’t plot a pellet collection strategy, they will be impossible to complete.

Moreover, to make things more difficult, while the millipede is in motion, you can’t see the entire maze, only a small part. There is the option to zoom out for a couple of seconds to have a look at the entire thing but after that, you’ll have to rely on memory to get things done.

Millie is by all means a fun to play game. It’s got the classic amusement park theme songs to listen to and to bring a cheerful mood, animations are smooth, level design is really nice and as you play new types of mazes come your way.

Stepping on your own feet is something that will happen a lot. If you’ve played Snake, you should be used to the idea or at least prepared for it. In Millie you get a few power ups and helpers that really come in handy at times. You can reduce the length of the millipede, speed it up so you can finish the level faster to get all the gold stars and more.

To sum things up, Millie is a cute game with simple gameplay that has plenty of challenges instored for you. At the end of your adventure, one thing is sure, Millie will need a really really really long plane to pilot.
