Kojima Productions Unveil Online
MGS Puzzle Game
Title geared to tide fans over
until May release of Peace Walker
Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc. has released a fun online game to tide Solid
Snake fans over until the long-awaited May release of Metal Gear Solid: Peace
Walker for PSP (PlayStation Portable).
Series creators, Kojima Productions, have created Metal Gear Solid: Piece
Walker, a dedicated online game available
here. Taking the
form of an isometric puzzle game, users are charged with placing a series of
jigsaw pieces into a picture grid. One of many monochromatic images from Metal
Gear Solid: Peace Walker acts as a center to the play area, and players must
place the correct colored version on to the image in order to complete the
picture.
Points are awarded by placing the colored blocks correctly, and Metal Gear
Solid: Piece Walker also allows players to compete with rival puzzlers from all
over the globe via its multi-player options, with later levels also adding bombs
and traps for the player to use against their rival. The very best players will
then be recorded for prosperity within the game’s online Ranking system, and the
game can also be shared with friends via social networking sites, such as
Twitter and Facebook.
The game is currently available in both Japanese and English language, with
localized versions to follow. Kojima Productions will also be adding a constant
stream of new levels on a weekly basis in the run up to Metal Gear Solid: Peace
Walker’s release on May 25th.
