Independent publisher Wadjet Eye Games is celebrating Puzzle Bots’ selection for the PAX 10 independent game showcase by offering the game for half price (that’s just $4.99) from Puzzle-Bots.com this weekend only! Just enter the coupon code PUZZLEPAX at checkout.

Puzzle Bots is a light-hearted adventure that kicks off when absent minded, quirky inventor, Zander and his colleagues abandon a metal box found outside of Dr. Hugo’s Factory for Making Robots. Their “offspring” — five tiny robots, each with their own, unique puzzle-solving ability find it and try to open it on their own, unleashing a mysterious adventure taking them back to the founding of the factory.

Puzzle Bots is one of ten indie games to be recognized at this year’s Penny Arcade Expo, which begins tomorrow at the Washington State Convention Center. “Being accepted into the PAX showcase is a huge honor,” says Dave Gilbert, Wadjet Eye Games’ founder and CEO. “We’re excited that so many gamers will be able to check out Puzzle Bots on the show floor and see how fun and creative it is. Who knew those little bots would take us this far?”

If you are attending PAX this year, be sure to stop by the Puzzle Bots Booth in the PAX 10 area and check out the game for yourself! If not, go and download it today!

A Free pay racing game

August 12, 2010 :: Posted by - admin :: Category - Latest Game

Recently i landed on the 24.com/games website, and decided to give a racing game a go. I have a driving license and thus decided to test out the driving test game on this game website… There is a parallel parking game on here which i thought matched the test criteria as this was one of the tests i had to to in order of attaining my license.

Now i wouldn’t exactly class this in the racing games category as its not really racing, but it does draw parallel to the control needed to be a tip top racing driver… Often as drivers we feel that speed is the most important part of going fast. But a due it isn’t – driving fast and intern racing is all about control and finesse, nothing is fast paced in the driving seat of a race car – its all measured and planned before the driver even enters the race. For this very reason i would say that playing racing games is one sure fire way to get some experience at car control.
