All Gilbert wants to do is attend a birthday party, but his mean old aunt Doris is having none of it. You must use Gilbert’s extreme allergy to eggs for good and help him survive a world of zaniness in order to get to the party. Tap either side of the screen to project vomit and coast over obstacles. Collect all of the egg and egg pieces along the way in order to earn a perfect rating. The game includes 21 levels with a cartoonish art style.

You’re into cartoons and platform games. It’s actually based on the movie Gilbert’s Cruel Revenge.

The concept seems sickening.
