 D3Publisher of America and Infinite Interactive Announce a Captivating New Odyssey to Conquer With Brand New Videogame Puzzle Quest: Galactrix!    


LOS ANGELES--Thrilling casual and hardcore gamers alike with the announcement, D3Publisher of America, Inc. and Infinite Interactive Pty. Ltd. today confirmed their partnership for the development of brand new videogame Puzzle Quest: Galactrix, a rich new addition to the beloved Puzzle Quest universe. The game incorporates a powerful blend of casual and hardcore gameplay elements, similar to those adored by fans of the critically acclaimed Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords, into an all-new futuristic, science-fiction setting. Puzzle Quest: Galactrix is scheduled for release in Fall 2008.    


"This extension of the Puzzle Quest brand establishes D3Publisher of America's first franchise, and exploring science fiction adventures in the Puzzle Quest universe is a natural extension of the product," said Bill Anker, vice president, business development and licensing, D3Publisher. "Infinite Interactive made magic in a classic fantasy setting with Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords, so D3Publisher is excited to be on board for a sci-fi odyssey into the future with Puzzle Quest: Galactrix."    


"D3’s support of our inventive experiment to create compelling gameplay based on a combination of puzzles, strategy and role-playing reaped fantastic rewards for us and for game fans of multiple genres," said Steve Fawkner, President and Lead Designer of Infinite Interactive. "For Puzzle Quest: Galactrix, our development team will persist in that vein and introduce an innovative hexagonal puzzle board to the mix, along with a deeply immersive new science-fiction setting and storyline that gamers will find irresistible."    


In Puzzle Quest: Galactrix a horrifying scientific accident has provoked another race to attempt extermination of humankind; players will create a persistent pilot who gains skills, crafts items, maneuvers among the universe’s political factions, and upgrades the ultimate space fleet as they attempt to end the genocide. An innovative hexagonal puzzle board allows for a wide range of strategic depth as it heeds to gravity according to a player’s location in the game universe. A rich and detailed storyline and fresh gameplay elements make the world of Puzzle Quest: Galactrix a captivating new adventure to explore and conquer.

Not on Wii? Not on WiiWare?

URGH!!!
Carmine Red, Associate Editor

A glooming peace this morning with it brings;
The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head:
Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;
Some shall be pardon'd, and some punished:
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Sega and her Mashiro.
