The Blitz 1UP label from Blitz Games Studios Ltd has been going through a very active phase of late, with three new titles signed, four more green-lit and new staff appointed all in the last month.
The Gamers Temple writes: "Remode Studios has 'remodeled' Minesweeper into a cutesy, cartoony game that will appeal to puzzle game fans who like things, well, cutesy and cartoony. The game is set in Molar Creek which has a bit of a mole problem. You're the inventor of a riding mower/vacuum cleaner hybrid designed to detect moles and suck them up out of the ground. Each mole-infested yard is overlaid with a grid and you must move from square to square ferreting out the moles. Your invention will tell you how many moles are adjacent to your current square and drop a flag with that number on that square to help you keep track of your readings."
Gaming Trend writes: "What happens when you take an old game and add your own personal spin and graphics to it? You create a game called Mole Control. Taking the old and time tested game of Minesweeper, Remode Studios added some modern flair to an otherwise ancient game. Throwing in a layer of nice graphics, exploding moles, and repair kits, Remode Studios turned a rather drab game into something that is enjoyable for the new and upcoming generation of gamers. The game itself takes place in Molar Creek and a rather generic thief with a popped collar has stolen the mole hunting trophy. What do the citizens of Molar Creek do? They ask Professor Kraft to create a mole catching device in an attempt to catch the thief!"
Mole Control is mind sweeper, except instead of a mouse cursor you ride along in a hover saucer with a massive vacuum and a propeller, and instead of mines you have to find and suck up explosive moles.
