Pullblox™ Comes To Nintendo eShop To Tax Your Brain And Unleash Your Creative Side Submitted by: Mediaedge CIA UK Wednesday, 7 December 2011

6th December 2011: With over 200 stages to test your wits plus the ability to share your own creations with friends, the platforming puzzler Pullblox brings plenty of challenging and inspiring fun to Nintendo eShop this Thursday. Pullblox is a unique game that utilises the 3D effect of the Nintendo 3DS (http://www.nintendo.co.uk/NOE/en_GB/nintendo_3ds_info_45424.html) system to perfectly blend a 3D puzzle mechanic with platform action. You play as Mallo, a young boy exploring the nearby Pullblox Park. He discovers that children have been trapped inside the giant block puzzles – ‘Pullblox’. So it's up to our tiny hero Mallo to rescue them! Climb the structures in order to solve the puzzle, pushing and pulling blocks to use as steps in full 3D. It’s up to Mallo to rescue the children by climbing to the top and collecting the flag. If a mistake is made, simply rewind time and try again! The Pullblox come in an array of different designs, including some based on popular Nintendo characters, as well as varying in difficulty, ranging from one to five stars, testing even the sharpest of minds. In Pullblox Studio you are able to unleash your creative juices to make and design your very own innovative puzzles. Simply follow the step by step instructions and let your imagination run wild. Once you successfully complete your Pullblox, you’ll be able to save it as a QR Code and share with your friends.
