The game was originally released on Sony’s PSP simply named as Crush. It was a clever platformer puzzler that required you to explore levels and collect marbles to progress to the next stage. What made it unique was that you had to manipulate the environment using the game’s 2D and 3D world switching mechanic called “Crushed.”
