About The Crayon Is Mightier

Draw bridges, ramps, blocks, boulders, doo-dads, and the occasional squiggly boy. Discover new magical crayon colors, each with their own special powers and surprising properties.

Six imaginative worlds filled with platforming challenges, oddball enemies, clever puzzles, and secrets waiting to be uncovered.

A single player adventure platformer where you'll explore the world as only a child can see it: bigger, stranger, and far more magical than adults realize.
