Sony Pictures Home Entertainment (SPHE) today announced the company's
latest slate of mobile games to be released through the first quarter
of 2010. Moe Larry and Curly, however will not be found on your mobile any time soon. All SPHE mobile games are available on Blackberry, BREW, J2ME, iPhone and Windows Mobile devices. Beginning with the release of Wheel of Fortune, SPHE titles will also be available on Android.
Current and upcoming titles include Voltron, Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy!
Voltron (December) - Mobile gamers will play out their own Voltron adventures,
through 30 levels and 6 acts, all in the palm of their hands. Featuring
isometric gameplay, gamers command robot lions to traverse the galaxy
and take on King Zarkon's evil droid armies. As players travel through
the game, they form their lions into the giant robot Voltron to
take on the more menacing Robeasts in traditional 2D fighting style
using game weapons such as the Lion Saber, Blazing Sword or Argon Force
Field. For gamers who want the most-enhanced Voltron experience,
the iPhone version of the game features touchscreen controls,
additional Robeasts and visual effects, streaming video and audio from
the television series and a Facebook Achievement System, where gamers
can post their conquests directly to Facebook.
Wheel of Fortune (February) - Spin the wheel, buy a vowel or solve the puzzle. The most up-to-date and feature-rich version of the Wheel of Fortune
mobile game hits mobile phones in early 2010, including leaderboards,
pass-n-play multiplay and an unlockable achievement system.
JEOPARDY! (March) - This...is...JEOPARDY!
One of the most successful mobile games in history is now being
updated. Players experience the fast-paced fun of the classic
television game show by answering clues, wagering on daily doubles or
risking it all in Final JEOPARDY! Wireless users can also challenge
friends and interact with other JEOPARDY! fans by posting their best scores on leaderboards.
Sony Pictures Home Entertainment will not be distributing the previously-announced Three Stooges iPhone game.
