Ebene, Mauritius — Oso Games is pleased to officially announce Game of Cubes, a fun, challenging, and highly addictive arcade puzzle game. Game of Cubes is currently on schedule to be released in early November.

The objective in Game of Cubes is to clear each level of cubes. Pairs of cubes are removed by placing them next to their matching counterpart. The player can roll cubes around the level to place them next to their respective partners. Pairs of similarly coloured cubes are matched when the patterns on their top faces join to create a single symmetrical shape.

With six different cube colours, seven different shapes marked on the cubes, three different game modes, four difficulty levels, and randomly generated levels, the possible combinations of games are virtually infinite. Additionally, every game has a unique key so the exact same game can be played over and over again – perfect for trying to beat previous times/scores. Try it for a minute, and you’ll play for hours.

The first release of Game of Cubes will be for iPhone and iPad, with support for other platforms to follow in the future. The initial version of Game of Cubes will support 14 languages: Danish, English, French, German, Italian, Korean, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, Ukranian.  A web-based demo version is available now on the Oso Games website at http://www.osogames.com

Berlin, Germany – The international multiplatform publisher Immanitas Entertainment has released Fouring Cursed Diamonds – an exciting puzzle game for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch is now available on the App Store for free.

In order to recover the legendary treasure of Isla Bonita, players must break the treasure’s curse by removing jewels in a very specific order.

At the beginning, players receive up to 15 lives, depending on the type of registration (via e-mail or Facebook). Whenever the time expires in a level, the player will lose a life. The higher the level, the more difficult it will be to steal the jewels and escape to the next level before time runs out.

• Over 100 levels full of puzzle fun
• Valuable special abilities, such as bombs and fireworks

Successful mobile app publisher, Focus Multimedia, has announced a charming and unique new action-puzzle game, Squashies World, for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad. Developed by award-winning studio The Game Creators, Squashies World asks players to rescue the stranded Squashies – a collection of cute, cool and colourful characters – after their world is turned upside down by a tornado.

The Squashies are desperate to return to the world where they live. Players must work out how to save the Squashies by squashing together characters of the same type until there are none left in the level. The game uses intuitive squashy touch controls to aim the characters around the playing field. The quicker the player clears a level, the more points they are awarded.

Each of the hand-crafted levels offers a different challenge, and a variety of obstacles stands in the player’s way. Barriers, force fields, windmills, sticky walls and other devious devices all conspire to thwart the Squashies on their journey home. Fortunately, easy-to-learn controls allow the player to concentrate on honing their skills and steadily progressing through the vividly coloured levels.

“We wanted to put out an action-puzzle game that really makes the most of the touch screen,” said Rick Vanner, Business Development Director for The Game Creators. “We’ve found that players really enjoy the elasticity involved in pinging the Squashies across the screen.”

“Squashies World is ideal for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch gamers seeking a blast of fun,” said Grant Hughes, Director of Focus Multimedia’s fdigital mobile label. “It’s a very addictive game with intuitive controls, vibrant visuals and sneaky puzzles, and it will quickly hook casual players.”

Squashies World relies on skill, accuracy and speed. The characters’ actions are accurately physically modelled to create an unlimited variety of bouncy movements. With a specially-commissioned soundtrack and cartoon-quality sound effects, Squashies World is a rich gaming experience that will bring a smile to players’ faces.

Squashies World is available now for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch, via Apple’s iTunes App Store. Android users can download the app from the Google Play store.

A new Squashies World video trailer and first screenshots are available for press to download and post online now at: http://www.fdigital.com/app/squashies-world/.

Squashies World is a unique partnership with Swizzels Matlow Ltd., the UK’s largest family-owned independent confectionery business, to mark the launch of their new range of gums. Squashies Sweet shop favourites – Love Hearts, Drumstick Lollies, Double Lollies and New Refresher chew bars – have been given a soft makeover by Swizzels Matlow and transformed into the new Squashies range.

A brave kid looking for troubles + fun Panda costume  = the nicest game “PandaBoy” for your iDevice. “PandaBoy” is a cute platform game with an adorable main character whose goal is to bring an eternal flame to people who have no more light to brighten up their days. Pretty heroic if we take into account all the enemies that pop out on his way. Go PandaBoy, go.

This family-friendly game is to play on the go. One finger touch and you make the “PandaBoy” experience extraordinary. Why is he wearing a Panda suit? Where did he get this torch? Why is he running from one country to another? What is his destination? Who cares when you’ve already dived into the unusual gameplay.

“Once, when I and my bro were hanging out, we bumped into the NES console and were glued to Chip’n'Dale for a few hours,” says Mark Sheguy, Entropy Project’s team leader. “Then we thought there’s almost no similar experience on our mobile devices. At that point we had already decided to create an old school game with well-designed graphics that we would love to play ourselves”.

“Pandaboy” is an unusual platformer. At least because there are not so many platforms and most of the time our hero is in flight, which is actually cool. It may seem at first that it’s a piece of cake, but in a while the game gets a twist and reaches some real hardcore.

Game levels allow you to use different playing techniques like taps and tilt so after a while you acquire your own unique style. The game doesn’t forgive your failures and praises those ones who are patient enough. Just don’t let “PandaBoy” fall and die.

So, will you accept this challenge?

Nom Nation is a new platform adventure game from Playerthree, in which the player takes on the role of Chef, journeying through five nutritious worlds on a mission to rescue the Book of Nom from Jabber the Gut, head of the McFatass Corporation.

Nom Nation was developed simultaneously for the web, iPhone, iPad and as a downloadable Minis game on PlayStation Network – a first for Channel 4. It is available now for public consumption.

Nom Nation was developed to help 14-19 year olds learn more about food, nutrition, a balanced diet and the effects that food can have on the body. The Noms represent real foods with energy, fats, vitamins and mineral content based upon accurate data.

The food Chef eats in the game directly affects his body shape – the player must use this knowledge to complete each level. Sometimes it’s best to be fat to weigh down platforms, at other times it’s good to be thin so he can float on air streams, but a good balance is always best. There is plenty of food around to eat, but choosing wisely will help Chef succeed in his quest.

Nom Nation allows the player to experiment with different food types to see what effects they will have on Chef’s body and discover the results for themselves. There are healthy and fast foods and drinks available in the game, including combinations which will give Chef side effects: Rage mode, Power Punch, Fart Jet, and Turbo Run are just some of the power ups in the game to help chef progress, some more beneficial than others.

David Streek, Creative Director at Playerthree says, “Nom Nation encourages gamers to consume different food and drink in the form of Noms and discover the benefits and dangers of each. Some trigger power ups and side effects, some make you fat and some damage your heart but all help illustrate how the right foods, or lack of them, affect the body and its functions.

Understanding nutrition helps the player complete the game with the educational ‘take-out’ being that a balance of foods is the best path to success in your quest and of course in real life.”

To ensure the accuracy of the dietary information in the game, Playerthree worked closely with Dr Rebecca Lang from the Medical Research Council who helped shape the gameplay so that it provides clear messaging relating to the properties of foods and their consumption.
