User guide

The goal is to get Percival the dwarf collect all hearts in each level and reach the open door.

Sounds easy? Well, let 70 Levels teach you the opposite.

Gameplay:

• The numbers in the bottom left of the screen show the required number of hearts and the number of the hearts collected so far.
• The numbers in the bottom center show you how much levels you solved and how much total levels there are.
• The symbol/cross between them shows you if you have already solved the current level.
• The number in the bottom right of the screen show you the current level's number.
• You have infinite lives. Your current progress on the Original Levels is saved anytime you solve a Level.
