Independent developer The Quantum Astrophysicists Guild, creators of the critically acclaimed The Bridge, launched their second game Tumblestone for Wii U and Steam today in America and Europe. This launch includes the debut of an animated Features Trailer (seen below):
Tumblestone is the first original action-puzzle game of the past fifteen years – designed to completely reinvent the genre into a deep and cerebral puzzle solving experience. Diverging from the staid match-3 formula of Bejeweled, Tumblestone strips out all the random gem flipping junk, and elevates the genre with unique puzzles and intense multiplayer gameplay in the spirit of Tetris Attack and Dr. Mario. This isn’t a game for people who want to lull themselves to sleep, no, Tumblestone is for gamers who love old-school puzzle games!
Brought to life with hand-painted artwork, Tumblestone offers several deep and exciting game modes for both single-player and competitive multiplayer. Help the Sausage King make friends and discover what happened to the Tumblecrown in the 40-hour story campaign featuring twelve worlds, each with a unique twist on the core mechanic. Test your mettle with up to four players in local and online multiplayer, or take on the world with ranked matchmaking and leaderboards. Indulge in multiple arcade modes, including fast-paced Heartbeat mode, brainy Infinipuzzle mode, and relaxing Marathon mode.
Tumblestone is coming to Xbox One as part of Games with Gold on July 16 th and to PlayStation 4 the following week. This title is rated E (Everyone) by the ESRB.
