Phelios – Puzzle Game and Trailer
Released
Atlanta, GA – September 29, 2003 –
Phelios, Inc. announced the release of their newest puzzle game called SWAP. In
conjunction with the release, Phelios has released a trailer for Swap. Although
rare to see a trailer for a puzzle, Phelios feels it is a convenient and
efficient way for people to view and assess the action of the game via a video,
particularly if they do not want to download it.
Gearing the game toward a wide range
of people with various amounts of free time, Swap incorporates 4 modes of game
play ranging from 60 seconds to forever. Players must match a minimum row of 3
or more similar color bubbles. Unlike other games of this family of puzzle
games, Swap does not run out of matches, thus automatically ending the game.
Instead, Phelios integrates a "Zap Attack," automatically reshuffling the game
and rewarding the player, in place of penalizing the player by ending the game
abruptly.
Description of Swap
Play Swap F-O-R-E-V-E-R…or for 60
seconds. Or something in between. It’s your choice – though you may want to play
in Relax Mode, sit back and play without getting that knot in your neck. With
Swap, work your mental agility to the umpteenth degree and match similar
bubbles. Your score can skyrocket to exponential potential if you explode the
loads of bonuses. Choose your many options and game style then match it with
your personality:
RUSH Mode: Want to play but in a
hurry? Push your agility and mind to the minute. It’s timed play and you have
exactly sixty seconds to haul…butt. CLASSIC Mode: Gives you a bit more leeway
with a whole 5 minutes of play. That’s 300 seconds to earn heaps of points!
MILLION Mode: Who wants to reach a million points? But more importantly, how
speedy can you be? Flex your brain muscle (and fast!) to make that million.
RELAX Mode: Why meditate when you can play Swap? Take a deep breath and exhale.
Simply take your time in this game version of ultimate relaxation. Relax Mode
embraces the thrill of chill and let’s you play as long as you like. Consider it
even, a form of stress management.
Swap is a puzzle game for everyone,
from small kids to the brainiest adults, from busy professionals with a minute
of free time, to the dedicated game enthusiast who creates extra hours to
challenge their personal best scores. The player is in complete control to
choose easy, normal and hard settings, as well as choosing the game that fits
his/her own personal style or mood. Take a peak at the Swap Trailer here:
