You’re at the bottom of an impossibly enormous wall. Your village is at the top. To get there you’re going to have to manipulate the blocky surface of the wall (and beat some bad guys and other random stuff).
All of civilisation clings to a giant omnipresent wall, your village is miles above where you start the game. What do you do? Against the Wall is a game in which you manipulate the walls around you to access new parts of “The Wall”. All with the one goal of just getting home.
