Here is an overview of the game:

Travel to the remote planet of Bazoik to free galactic citizens from the evil cereal-eating Flemoids!

Chex Quest HD is a modern, multiplayer remake of the classic 1996 first-person shooter advergame of the same name.

The Intergalactic Federation of Snacks’ outpost on the remote planet of Bazoik has been overrun by evil cereal-eating creatures from another dimension! These slimy “Flemoids” have taken the citizens of Bazoik captive, and it is up to you and the Chex Mix Squadron to free them. Thankfully, you have a handy array of “zorching” devices that can send these invaders back to their home dimension to succeed in your mission.

Key Features:

• Play as one of six members of Chex Mix Squadron!
• In single-player or split-screen multiplayer mode!
• Save the galaxy from the nefarious Flemoid menace!
• Challenge your friends in Player-versus-Player mode.

Ok. Thank you. I thought I was going crazy and made it up that it was free on PC.

And I probably would have played it on switch if it was free.

I'm guessing the original game was also free with the purchase of a box of Chex cereal haha

Correct. "Free". Hell, give me a code for the switch game and I'll buy a box. Haha.

Lol good point! They should put codes for the game in the cereal instead of selling it.
