Yuke's digital distribution division brings a follow-up to the DS puzzle game.

Akinai Games, Yuke's recently formed digital distribution division, announced NEVES Plus, a follow-up to their DS title that was released in 2007. NEVES Plus is a puzzle game that involves tangram-style puzzles, and trying to fit various pieces into a silhouette to complete the puzzle.

Talkback

I actually hav e the first one... it's very pleasant and claming and makes me feel peaceful! ^_^

I was vaguely interested in the DS version, but this kind of game makes a lot more sense on WiiWare, as the value proposition is hard to understand with DS game prices.
