Board@Work – Coming Soon!

By

On April 23, 2009

We at Spigot Games are pleased to annouce Board@Work, coming to the App Store very soon!

Board@Work is a unique take on matching games. It’s played on a 5×5 grid which starts out empty with new blocks placed upon at a continually shrinking interval. The player removes blocks by matching the colors or symbols of 3 or more in a row, column, or both. In addition to several single player modes, there are also three online multiplayer modes, enabling players to throw blocks they don’t want at other players. Board@Work isn’t the easiest to describe over email, but think Tetris meets Bejeweled with power-ups and Office Space-style humor.

 

More info on Board@Work, including screenshots and game play video, can be found here – www.spigotgame.com/baw.html  It will go on sale soon at an introductory price of $1.99.

About Ballsy:

Ballsy is a puzzle-action game filled with strategy and classic arcade action. It’s not just your typical ball-and-paddle game – in Ballsy, you’re the ball, attempting to break colored bricks as fast as possible. Solving all 50 levels requires quick thinking and a good strategy, so plan your route through each level carefully!

With Ballsy, we bred an incredibly addicting HP48 and TI-8X graphing calculator game with the look and feel of the arcade classics, giving the game simple, colorful graphics backed up with stellar game play. Ballsy brings you back to math class without homework and to the arcade without the quarters!

The objective is simple – start each level by destroying the light grey bricks, then take out the rest, choosing the color by hitting switch blocks. Destroy diamond plate blocks with lightning bolts, and take out the star blocks once you’ve cleared all the others, but watch out for skull blocks!

Features:
* Classic arcade look and feel
* 50 levels
* Bonus scoring
* Online high scores
* Auto-saves and three save game slots
