Transmogrify is set in a sci-fi world with comics-like modern graphics, and features a peculiar, non-lethal weapon that transforms enemies into tools and structures needed to solve the levels.
It all started while you were routinely cleaning storage room 2b in section 6. First the loud sound of a breaker tripping and then… pitch darkness, the facility locked down and the emergency lights switched on.
After a system reset, GRACE the research AI comes to your rescue. She has no memory of the events leading up the failure and informs you the specimens have all gotten free. She urges you to escape and gives you a device only labeled as Project Transmogrfiy, that turns living matter into usable tools and structures.

You play as Chris, a janitor working at Perfect Future Laboratories. This high-tech and secretive research facility has suffered catastrophic damage. Now your only way out is through several radioactively colorful worlds infested with cute but lethal monsters. Armed only with your gun and the help of GRACE, you must transmogrify these enemies into the tools you need to solve the puzzles and escape.
Refreshingly different in its genre, Transmogrify does not shy away from cranking up the difficulty level where most puzzle platformers remain mechanically simple. It’s a puzzle game where you need to react quickly, and an action platformer game where you have to think!
Over 75 levels are packed with fast-paced action, tons of enemies and powerups, all set to an exciting soundtrack. The player’s ability to manipulate the environment through transforming monsters into blocks, springs, floating platforms and other tools, is an innovative mechanic that is as fun as the name Transmogrify makes it sound.
