Hands-On Preview Of Aqueduct, Kieffer Bros’ Upcoming iPhone Puzzle Game
June 23, 2010
Kieffer Bros., the creators of hit titles like Abca and Orba, will soon bring you a new puzzle game that will push those neurons to the limits.
Aqueduct is a wonderfully crafted jumble of piping that takes all of your creative mind to put them back together and restore the flow of water. Given a slate of obstacles, straight pipes, corner pipes, T-sections, and cross-junctions, your mission is to restore the flow of water from the faucet(s) to the drain(s).
To play, just use your finger to move around the different pipe pieces, spacer blocks, and bridge sections to properly reconnect the maze of pipes; then you can open the faucet and watch your success literally go down the drain. The addition of tricky conveyor belts, warp holes, locked doors, and bridge components give this title depth and some extra head scratching.
You will be able to work your way through six levels of difficulty totaling a whopping 140 brain popping puzzles. After completing all of the puzzles at a certain difficulty level, you're allowed to step-up to the next.
Aqueduct for iPhone and iPod touch will be available in the App Store next Tuesday, June 29th, for a very reasonable price of $2.99. Check out the official gameplay trailer below.
