Mercury Meltdown gets release date & new screens

A sequel to Mercury, the inventive puzzle game released when the PSP launched last year was announced a while ago, now Ignition Entertainment has given Mercury Meltdown a release date: In Europe, you can officially get your hands on the game this September.

In Mercury Meltdown, now featuring an all-new visual style, players once again take the role of the liquid “blob”, and avoid lots of obstacles and hazards on the way to the goal. The sequel has expanded on this unique premise with the introduction of 4 states the blob can have – Normal, Solid, Fast and Slow. With those new states, more complex levels and new challenges are possible, making the game even more fun.

Besides this, the developers have doubled the number of levels to a total of more than 160. The added Downloadable Content feature promises even more levels, and when players have finally come around to beating all these challenges the new Wireless 2-player modes provide 5 sub games to play against a friend or the computer.

Vijay Chadha, Managing Director, Ignition Entertainment Ltd, said: “For Mercury Meltdown, we have listened to the feedback received from the first title and have also added many new additional ideas – while remaining true to the first game, Mercury Meltdown has a more accessible look and feel designed to appeal to everyone.”
