Once upon a time, as the legend goes, there was an island. And on this island there lived many pickles, a kingdom of them in fact. They enjoyed a reign of peace under the direction of their leader, King Pickleton.

But the story also tells of one pickle much more intelligent than the rest. He was known simply as Mecha. Tired of the other's absurd ways, he became corrupt and crafted a scheme of villainy and world domination.

Knowing that the Pickles were not very bright, he set up a series of puzzles to keep them from disturbing his plans. But the pickles refused to be defeated! Alas, despite their persistence, the pickles were unable to overcome Mecha on their own.

So, at last, in their despair, they sent a plea for help. And that is where the story comes to life...

"The Pickles" is a game combining puzzles and a little action. The Pickles of Pickle Island are determined to set a stop to Mecha, an ingenious villian who has turned against them. That's where you come in. King Pickleton has sent to you for help. By using the Pickles' skills, you must overcome Mecha's puzzles.

The basic concept is simple. The Pickles can all push the blocks that make up the level a certain number of spaces. But sometimes it takes a bit more. The Pickles can also pick up tools and change professions. Each of the three special professions handles blocks and obstacles differently.

There's also Mecha's minions to deal with! The Pickles must dodge them, and they always seem to be in the way!

Are you up to the challenge? Can this rag-tag team overcome this villain? Probably not, but it's worth a try!
