Blokus Portable: Steambot Championship launches early 2008


Long-time readers of PSP Fanboy have already tried Blokus Portable. We offered a Japanese demo months ago. Now, Majesco is ready to bring this anime-infused puzzle game to the States. "With three million units sold and credit as the most acclaimed game of the century, the Blokus board game is clearly an international sensation," said Gui Karyo, Executive Vice President of Operations, Majesco in a recent press release. "Based on this incredibly successful property, Blokus Portable combines strategic gameplay with 16 player support to make it the perfect social puzzle game that's easy to pick-up, yet hard to put down."

Up to 16 players can compete in Ad Hoc wireless mode. More exciting, however, is the addition of Game Sharing. Up to four players can compete using a single UMD. This rarely used feature is ideal for puzzle games. Best of all, Majesco plans on releasing the title at a budget price -- $19.99.
