About Layer Master
One of the most amazing features of the game is how simple it is. All you have to do is collect the hoops scattered all over the track and avoid obstacles in the form of blocks and other stickman in order to defeat the boss at the end! The more hoops you collect, the bigger your head will be, which can give you a nice bonus at the final stage of the level. What are you waiting for? Start playing right now and test your dexterity and concentration skills. Pass all the obstacles in your way and destroy the boss! Whether you are looking for a fun way to pass the time or you are an experienced gamer, this game is sure to provide you with hours of entertainment.
How to play Layer Master
