This post is part of a series on The Pirate Bay Bundle.

When loading up 45 Guys 1 Brain for the first time I was certain it had to do with zombies. Not only does it have “brain” in the title, but the color scheme is various shades of green and there are tiny little people wandering about! As it turns out, it’s not about zombies at all.

In the game you have to guide a group of 45 pixel people through a stage, starting from the top left to reach the bottom right. Of course, there are various walls, gaping holes in the floor, and electric gates that impede the otherwise simple trip.

Each character is controlled at  the same time too. Using the four directional buttons for group movement you must find the best way to keep the majority safe on their trek through stages. The first stage isn’t too bad but by the time you get to the last, it’s likely that most of the tiny characters will end up dead.

There are only four stages in total but that’s all you need to see that the idea behind 45 Guys 1 Brain is quite solid. Even though you only need to keep 10 alive to pass a stage, there’s fun to be had retrying a few times to increase your best score.
