Your worst nightmare has come true. The clowns are here and "here" couldn't be further from where you need to be right now.

Plot Synopsis

When things take a serious turn during what was meant to be a simple, playful day, Jimmy finds himself trapped in a circus, with no idea how to get out. There's balloons, laughing enemies around the corners... a gun!? Oh, and a guy that seems to be trying to start a business amongst all this. Just what is this clownery? It's all too much for a young boy to handle which is why YOU are Jimmy's only hope at escape.

Play as our little hero, help him defeat his kidnappers by using unique, colorful ammunition that inflicts different effects upon the enemies to help you get past them, look around the circus for valuable items, make smart decisions while trading with the merchant and bring Jimmy back home safely.

How to Play?

'Spin to Win' is first and foremost represented by Jimmy's revolver. You have 6 slots, and always use the one at the top of the cylinder. Each shot - loaded or not - spins the cylinder. Attacking with the gun makes sound, so if you want to get clowns' attention - try to use that information to your advantage.

Ammo Types

There are 3 (well, four) ammo types in One in the Circlus:

• Blue - a sedative bullet, which slows target Clown. Once affected by the blue projectile, the Clown's speed and perception (vision and hearing) is reduced. Such clown might want to trigger some buttons from time to time.
• Green - this projectile makes Clowns super jolly - even more than usual! Affected patrol totally random locations, and once they get their hands on something interactive, they rarely stop playing with it until they fall unconscious.
• Red - full adrenaline this one. Affected Clowns' speed is increased, and their aggression level is off the charts. They usually target some wooden staff like tables od jester boxes as their prime objective to shatter.
• Golden Ticket - most powerful of all; just one simple shot turns a clown super serious and not so jolly anymore.

Defeating Clowns

While the game's main focus is on stealth, you obviously do not have to defeat all the Clowns in the game. You might, however, be more inclined to use their ranks to do things for you - like activating a massive festive cannon so you can be shot out of the circlus complex!

IF somehow you think real SERIOUSLY about incapacitating your wicked captors, hitting them twice with the same color of bullet gets rid of them indefinitely.
