Snark Busters: Welcome to the Club

ALEXANDRIA, Va., July 29 – Do you have what it takes to find the Snark? Find out today in Snark Busters: Welcome to the Club, a new PC game from leading casual game publisher Alawar Entertainment. In this imaginative hidden object adventure, players help heroine Kira Robinson secure a spot in the elite Snark Busting Club by hunting down the elusive Snark, a creature few have seen—and no one has caught. The game can be downloaded from http://www.alawar.com for $9.95. A trial version offering one hour of free gameplay is available as well.

In this colorful game, traveling through mirrors and into inside-out and upside-down worlds is commonplace, and every object you discover has a hidden use. Diligent players will decipher the clues, solve the puzzles, and piece together the tools needed to track the stealthy Snark. The game's seven chapters feature dozens of puzzles, over a dozen mini-games, 30 animated locations, and a light, comical storyline that ends with an unexpected twist.

"Snark Busters is bright, colorful, humorous, and full of surprises," says Kirill Plotnikov, vice-president of publishing of Alawar Entertainment. "It's also packed with unique puzzle-solving challenges, as the actions of the player on one side of a mirror can affect how things appear on the other side. We believed the market was ready for something innovative and fun, and we've delivered it."
