Ideaworks3D Reinvents the Classic Platform Game for 3D BREW Handsets

Eidos Interactive today announced that it will publish the classic platform game, Pandemonium for mobile phones, making it available for download exclusively on 3D BREW Handsets this fall 2006.

Originally developed and published by Crystal Dynamics, Pandemonium has already become a successful title on gaming platforms such as the PlayStation® game console, SEGA Saturn, PC, and Nokia N-Gage, with combined sales to date of 1.7 million units. Featuring a freestyle 3D camera and brilliantly detailed 3D worlds, this new iteration captures the essence of what made Pandemonium a classic platform game, allowing mobile phone gamers to have a brand new experience with the acrobatic team of Nikki, Fargus, and demented puppet-on-a-stick, Sid.

“This version of Pandemonium is really pushing the boundaries of what can be done with mobile phone gaming,” said Tom Marx, US Senior Business Development Manager, Eidos. “The graphics remain strikingly faithful to the original formats and the ability to have levels load while you play the game allows gamers to have a seamless gaming experience. Pandemonium truly shines on the mobile phone and will be a must have title for owners of 3D BREW Handsets.”

Developed by Ideaworks3D, Pandemonium will be available for download exclusively on 3D BREW Handsets this fall 2006.
