Online Wii Puzzler Octomania Hits March 11

5
Idea Factory's color-matching puzzler Octomania (Wii) is headed to North America, courtesy of publisher Conspiracy Entertainment and distributor Atlus. It will ship to stores on March 11 and sell for the budget price of $19.99.

Along with the news of the game's impending release, the companies sent over several screenshots of the title in action.

Developed under the supervision of Puyo Puyo creator Masamitsu Niitani, Octomania has players rotating squares to match up octopi of the same color and features two-person online multiplayer via the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. The game employs a hyper-saccharine visual style to weave the epic tale of a magician who must rid the land of the excess octopi created by a wayward spell.

      Personally, I can't wait for the new Dr. Mario on WiiWare

        Same. I'd love to see a gimmicky tetris where you turn your remote to turn pieces. :D

          that would be a fun, especially as a party game! So many people would whiny bitch-moan though, they'd have to make + pad controls optional.

            Fuck em ;) In fact make it so that pieces can land on an angle, just to make d-pad play impossible.
