The premise revolves around being trapped in a prison hell, where a desperate orange will play a deadly game in the hopes of getting shipped home. The player would have to choose carefully and they might just get out of this without making the floor all sticky.
The games music was composed by Amon26, Jerad H. and Tony Guziel. The webgame was originally released on Newgrounds before making its Android port. Surprisingly, Amon26 goes uncredited in the Android port for currently unknown reasons.
