In a world where spiders compete for supremacy, you enter the games to become the arachnomonarch. After impressing with your skills, you face Queen Shelob in the finals. The game involves strategic movement across a web, where you must catch Shelob by your tenth move. The web's layout allows Shelob to evade easily, but by using a color pattern strategy, you can trap her. The key is to change the rhythm of moves at a unique intersection point.
