The screen is split and you must accomplish tasks on both sides of the screen, this alone makes Parallelus  unique and challenging before we even talk about the actual game play.

Catch hearts and avoid bombs. Do you really think this task is simple?

Try it yourself in this original arcade game.

Use your reflexes and brain to complete this double task. Two hands, two brain parts, two game fields. Parallelus it!

Upon loading the iphone game Parallelus you are asked to pick 1 of three different game types: Evade, Target or Combined.  In “Evade” mode you need to “evade” dropping bombs on each side of the screen.  “Target” mode has you catching falling hearts and in “Combined” you need to avoid bombs and get hearts.  I realize all of this sounds a bit silly but when you see the split screen action you’ll realize this is different and challenging.
