City Builder
Pipe-connecting, conurbation-constructing puzzler.
Los Angeles, Calif.--October 20, 2009--Collision Studios, a leading developer of entertainment software for next generation consoles and PC, and Virtual Play Games, a global Console and PC video game publisher today announced City Builder for Wii™, a madcap puzzle game for all ages. City Builder combines two classic game mechanics in a fun, bouncy game where players stack water pipes, roads and power lines to form ever-growing cities across the planet's four continents.
"City Builder is an enjoyable pick-up-and-play game for the whole family," said Phillipe Erwin, CEO of Collision Studios. "Virtual Play Games has a great understanding of the family market and this game is a perfect fit for them."
City Builder offers a fresh take on classic pipe puzzle games by expanding the gameplay to three overlapping levels: road, underground (water mains) and sky (power lines). Connect resource pieces together to claim land while racing against the clock and overcoming madcap and hilarious obstacles. Solve each resource puzzle and watch each city grow in wacky and unique ways!
"Collision has an excellent track record of creating fun, playable games from both original and licensed IP," said Cameron Madani, head of business development at Virtual Play Games. "City Builder is a fantastically addicting game."
City Builder is expected to be available at retail in February 2010.
