Power Solenoid

Power Solenoid is an action-adventure game in which you control Rockhound, an interdimensional punk who loves cool sunglasses. You bounce through pinball-like worlds, collecting valuable Gems and exploring Grand Palace, a place of doors, secrets and friends. The game combines stylized pixel art with 3D cinematics, live footage and a soundtrack of more than 40 loop songs.

Worlds and levels

The game has three worlds, with 18 levels featuring different gravities, dangers, collectibles and secrets. Some levels include friends who offer rewards. You can also find six harder secret levels and three hidden bonus levels with special rewards. Seven boss fights—divided into MiniBosses, BigBosses and a Final Battle—have distinct patterns to uncover and master.

Items and tools

At the Astral Mirror, you can equip a new face, Cosmic Glasses and Cosmic Tools. Rockhound can receive, buy or discover six pairs of Cosmic Glasses throughout Grand Palace. Three Cosmic Tools help him navigate levels and find secret paths.

Grand Palace activities

You can pilot Rockhound’s GlideHawk starship through classic-style shoot-'em-up levels. Two friendly Goblins ask for unusual Earthly items they are curious about, while Bankula runs a Gems exchange and Lion hopes to become a millionaire. You can help Lion pursue his goal and level up the Rockbowl minigame to farm Golden Coins, a strange and valuable earthly metal.

Benny, a charming little plasticine character, aspires to reach the heights of the universe and needs Rockhound’s help. The Goblins also take part in Smog, a friendly reflex-based mind game that tests your sight. You can strengthen your bond with a Goblin to change its appearance, and Goblins sell valued collectibles that aid Rockhound on his journey.

Secrets and daily trade

Grand Palace has days that affect the Goblins’ shops: they sell different things on different days and may sometimes be unavailable. Keep an eye on spending with the Cosmic Card, a credit card from the outer dimensions. You can also investigate the mysterious tomb of someone called Herman and search for the strange parts missing from it.
