ideo game publisher Zoo Games today revealed that the award-winning music puzzle game, Auditorium, coming to PlayStation Network on November 23, 2010 will feature twice the content as the original game, as well as new 3D and PlayStation Move support.

Originally a popular online and iPhone game from developer Cipher Prime, Auditorium is a captivating game of discovery and play that takes players on a visual and audio journey as they guide a constant stream of tiny moving light and sound particles into Audio Containers that create harmony as they build an orchestrated soundtrack. Seamlessly mixing enchanting audio layers and iridescent graphics with creative and challenging gameplay, Auditorium invites players to explore and use their intuition.

Auditorium now offers two game modes: Auditorium Classic, the original playlist of 72 levels, and the all-new Auditorium Modern, an exclusive playlist for the PSN game that offers 78 brand new levels and music, providing players with double the amount of creative musical puzzles.

For those with 3D televisions, Auditorium includes subtle stereoscopic 3D support to add a whole new dimension to the visual experience of the game.

Funky Lab Rat is a puzzle platformer where you play as a rat who has decided to escape the lab and be free. there are 81 different challenges, across 10 worlds, to complete with your super powers.



Press Release

FRANCE – 15 NOVEMBER, 2010 – Hydravision Entertainment announced today its super-challenging action and puzzle platformer Funky Lab Rat will scamper to PlayStation 3 system on November 24th in Europe and on November 30th in America.

Funky Lab Rat is an exclusive to PlayStation 3 system at launch and will be available for download on the PlayStation®Store in both America and Europe.

Thanks to its original and energizing gameplay players will manipulate time, space and gravity!

Using a PlayStation®Move motion controller or a DUALSHOCK®3 wireless controller: freeze time, stop the action and even rewind to re-arrange and place the available items to facilitate your fast escape.

Think it’s easy to be a running rat? It’s because you haven’t been exploring yet one of the 10 worlds yet with an increasing level of difficulty! Just check out the first Funky Lab Rat trailer here and you'll fall for it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5hW5xeht62M.


Connect on the official website to discover more about what awaits you in Diego’s world atwww.funkylabrat.com.

The Funky Lab Rat challenge:  Get out! Stop time, organize, synchronize, and re-start time!
The action is set in a lab, where players become Diego, a very cool, super-powered funky lab rat who decides it’s time to break free! Player’s mission is to make it through the final lab gate by crossing over pits and overcoming obstacles! All the items must be carefully placed and synchronized for the escape to work.  If your synchronization doesn’t work, you can try again by rewinding time so you don’t have to re-start the level every time.

One of the 81 challenges in Funky Lab Rat is figuring out how to stand on end three columns in the pit and put boxes on top of each column to create an escape bridge across the deadly pit.  Once you have it figured out, stop the action (gravity, too!), then re-start the action and make your escape!

But, it’s one thing to create an escape bridge, but it’s quite another challenge to cross that bridge when the columns are teetering and the boxes are moving.  It’s not so easy!  Getting through 81 levels will keep your little rat busy for hours!  So, how resourceful a rat are you?

Funky Lab Rat is rated PEGI 3+,  ESRB “E”, and USK 0.
The game will be available in English, Spanish, German, French and Italian at launch.
