Blokus: Steambot Championship Bricks PSP in 2008
Irem Software Engineering's PSP version of Sekkoia's renowned board game Blokus is on its way to North America in early 2008, publisher Majesco announced today.
Titled Blokus Portable: Steambot Championship, it combines characters from Irem's Steambot Chronicles--a mech-and-music-focused PlayStation 2 action-adventure game published domestically by Atlus--with the simple-though-strategic gameplay of Blokus.
The concept behind Blokus has players placing colored squares on a board, with the goal to have have the corners, but not the sides, touching blocks of the same color. Though the board game only supports up to 4 players, the PSP version will allow up to 16 players to go head-to-head via local wireless multiplayer.
"Blokus is a really fun game. There was a PS2 version, think it only got a Japanese release."7 Comments
