More On: Pop 'Em Drop 'Em Samegame
Hudson announced Friday that their upcoming puzzle play game Pop 'Em Drop 'Em Samegame will be hitting WiiWare in the near future. The game is a simple puzzler, where players are tasked with simply matching up two blocks and hitting a button. Of course, there are bonuses and the blocks shift, so it looks to be fun to play, but possibly hard to become skilled at. It will feature three game modes, including Fame Game, Shame Game and Blame Game and up to four players. Limited game customization is also available by adjusting the backgrounds and block designs. No date or price were provided in the release, but we have some lovely screen shots to tide everyone over.

Casual Gamers Can Enjoy This Classic Puzzle Game With Up To Four
Players At Home In Three Fast-Paced Multiplayer Modes

REDWOOD CITY, CA - January 16, 2009 - Hudson Entertainment, the North
American publishing arm for HUDSON SOFT, today announced that it will
launch Pop 'Em Drop 'Em Samegame, a new puzzle game available for
WiiWare. Designed for casual players, the game is simple to play but
hard to master and has multiplayer fun for up to four players.

Pop 'Em Drop 'Em Samegame features classic puzzle gameplay in which
players match two or more colored blocks to clear them. As blocks are
cleared, the remaining blocks will shift. If players are skilled
enough, bonus points are awarded when all blocks are cleared. The game
allows for play with up to four friends at home in three fast-paced
multiplayer modes: Fame Game, Shame Game and Blame Game. Players can
also customize the game by changing the block design and backgrounds.

The game features simple, easy to understand puzzle elements that
casual gamers will love. It is easy and addictive to play but
challenging to master. Players simply need to match two or more
colored blocks and hit a button. It's that easy! The challenge comes
when players advance and try to maximize their score.

"Pop 'Em Drop 'Em Samegame is the most accessible casual puzzle game
available on WiiWare," said Sabine Duvall, Vice President of Product
Development at Hudson Entertainment. "This game is for casual game
fans who enjoy the simplicity and addictive fun of classic puzzle
gameplay."

Software Rating Board (ESRB).
