Episode 2: ‘SWAP!’ of the Arkedo series coming to PSN (PSN)

Arkedo and Sanuk Games are proud to announce that “02 – SWAP!”, the second installment of the critically acclaimed ARKEDO SERIES, will be available on PlayStation®3 in Europe on September 21st for only €1.99 / £1.59.
Douse your console in a colorful world and get ready for some serious old-school action! In this Match-4 game, you’ll help King Kat find the way to his castle after a long night drinking milk on the beach. To get this done, you will of course be challenged to clear rising blocks before they reach the top of the screen, by swapping them to form lines and rows!

Combos, bonus blocks, power blocks and time freezers will help you escape critical situations and clear the five castles contained in the game. And once you think you’re done, you’ll find out that there are still a number of things waiting for you in Challenge mode.

Initially published on XBox Live Indy Games as a “one game per month” experiment, the ARKEDO SERIES got scores of enthusiastic reviews. Geoff Gibson from diygamer.com said “02 – SWAP!” has “all the makings of a great casual puzzler at a price that can be easily swallowed”, while Andy Merrill from xblaratings.com said he was “really impressed with the design and polish of the game”.

This enthusiasm didn’t fade for the PlayStation®3 release: to date, “01 – JUMP!”, released on August 24th, got an average score over 8.5/10, and not a single bad review. Curtis Humphrey from pspenguin.net said “nearly everything about JUMP! is nothing short of fantastic”.

The last game of the series, “03 – PIXEL!”, will have its release date announced shortly.
