About Metaxis
In Metaxis, a minimalist puzzle-platformer, if you stop moving, you die. Descend into a black-and-white underworld to save a lost soul, facing Death’s cruel challenge: succeed or stay trapped forever. Cross dangerous, changing isometric levels with quick reflexes and sharp thinking. Every step is a fight between life and death. Your only chance is to keep moving.
It's a straightforward puzzle game that gets out of your way and lets you play. Pick it up for a short break or settle in for a while — it runs well on phone, tablet, and desktop alike.
Two quick pointers before you dive deep: Slow down on the first level — the early stages teach mechanics you will need at the end. Watch for combos: clearing pieces in chains usually scores more than chasing the timer.
Metaxis is part of the hand-checked Glaze Games puzzle collection. Press Play to start instantly — no account, no download, just the game.
