Runestone Games and GlobalFun announce winter sequel to award winning game Pico Pix.
For Immediate Release
London & Karlskrona (Sweden), 30th October 2007 - Runestone Games and GlobalFun announce the sequel to Runestone Games' award-winning PicoPix mobile game. It's the PicoPix Winter Edition! The seasons change, but the fun remains!
PicoPix Winter Edition is a mobile game for people that enjoy brainteasers. The player has to use the clues provided to solve the puzzle and reveal the hidden picture. With over 40 challenging puzzles, the game provides hours of entertainment as the player tries to collect all the pictures for their gallery. All the puzzles are set at several locations near the frosty North Pole, each with their own villain. The amusing and colorful pictures that are revealed are sure to chase away the winter blues.
The original PicoPix game was extremely well received by both reviewers and game players gaining high review scores and winning several mobile game awards (mobilegamefaqs.com - 85% & Gold Award; pocketgamer.co.uk - 8/10 & Silver Award)
Julian Wolter, Managing Director of Runestone Games said, "The brainteasers in PicoPix and PicoPix Winter Edition are perfect for casual gamers, as they are easy to pick-up, challenging and engaging for several minutes, and ultimately rewarding, when the player has revealed the new picture for their gallery."
Bertil Krumnack, COO of GlobalFun said "To publish the Winter Edition of PicoPix was an easy decision for us, having seen the initial uptake on PicoPix that we also publish for Runestone Games. Seasonal games are much more interesting than games solely targeted towards one specific date, such as Christmas."
In PicoPix, the puzzles that the player needs to solve are directly linked to the picture they reveal, making every new puzzle solved a satisfying and fresh experience.
PicoPix Winter Edition has an extremely large compatibility, with over 400+ mobile handsets being supported.
PicoPix Winter Edition will be available through quality operators and portals.
