Killer Queen Black:

Two teams face off in this strategic team platformer with three ways to win: wipe out the enemy’s queen, hoard berries, or hop on the snail (yep…there’s a snail). Each of these victories may sound simple, but it will take cooperation and coordination among your teammates to win it all.
