About
I Wanna Save the Kids (also known as IWSTK) is a freeware indie video game published by Mike "Kayin" O'Reilly, its creator, in late 2007 worldwide on his official website. It is the prequel to I Wanna Be the Guy (despite being released after it) and therefore chronologically the first game in the I Wanna Be the Guy series. The game's mechanics are inspired by the game Lemmings: The Kid must manage to save some children, who advance regardless of the dangers, and bring them to a safe place in a kind of house. To do this he has several tools at his disposal, but most of the time he is forced to obtain these tools by overcoming IWBTG-worthy maps, complete with spikes, falling cherries and more.
