Nimbus is a unique combination of racing & puzzling. The player controls a craft with no means of directly propelling itself and needs to use whatever is scattered around the levels to acquire thrust and reach the goal. Traverse a world map with several distinct islands in order to recover your lost love. Light on story, but heavy on gameplay Nimbus offers several hours of increasingly harder challenges.

The gameplay itself is fun until you get to the point puzzles become very hard to beat, not due to the difficulty of normal movement, but the difficulty of trying to use a poorly designed contorl scheme.
