Encleverment Experiment begins on XBLA Nov. 11
Aside from being a pretty cool name for a band, Encleverment Experiment is a new Xbox Live Arcade game from Blitz Arcade. Debuting on Wednesday, November 11th, the Avatar-supporting bout of brainage offers 16 different minigames and puzzles, including word searches, mathematical exercises and odd-one-out type things. Thankfully, the difficulty can be toned down from difficult (for adults) to something quite a bit easier (for children or bloggers).If you're keen to enroll in "Professor Ivor Question's mental faculty," it'll cost you 800 points ($10). As an early test of your skill, see if you can count how many puns there were between the quotation marks.Highlight for solution: 19. Look closely. %Gallery-77503%
Blitz Arcade introduces five games probably headed to WiiWare
Blitz Arcade, the casual component of Blitz Games (and the company behind the wonderfully ridiculous Burger King games), will display five new games designed for download services at this month's Casual Connect Conference. It isn't explicitly stated which services these games will be sold through, but they have been "developed to work across PC and console digital distribution platforms." The games include: KrissX: A collection of word games starring Wordsworth the Owl. Encleverment Experiment: A minigame collection that tests "reflexes, memory, visual acuity and mental dexterity." Buccaneer -- The Pursuit of Infamy: A pirate ship combat game for up to twelve players. Droplitz: A puzzle game involving rotating dials to create paths. Similar to Pipe Dream. CodaChain: A musical adventure game starring a DJ who must gather people with various skills to help solve puzzles, with online multiplayer. CodaChain and Buccaneer sound like standouts, and we have absolutely no problem with more titles on WiiWare. The screens in our gallery are clearly from other platforms, but they at least demonstrate what each game looks like.%Gallery-27305%
