AGETEC RELEASES PUZZLE GUZZLE FOR PSP® SYSTEM

Press Release PROVIDED BY GAMES PRESS

SUNNYVALE, CA - March 3, 2008 - Agetec, Inc. today announced Puzzle Guzzle for the PSP® (PlayStation®Portable) system has shipped in North America. In the game, players try to create complete shapes, but at diagonal angles and with either a human or computer player always trying to foil you.

"Puzzle Guzzle is a game that's sure to challenge even the most experienced puzzle players," said Mark Johnson, producer for Agetec, Inc. "It has a classically simple concept, but makes you think in ways that no other game does. On top of all that, it's just plain fun."

The premise of Puzzle Guzzle is simple: players attempt to turn different shaped pieces into shapes with 90 degree angles on each side. However, as the pieces appear faster and faster, and your opponents get more devious, this simple challenge soon becomes a maddeningly fun experience. As players defeat opponents, they steal their character's appearance, features and special abilities, so the more you play, the more the game changes!

Puzzle Guzzle features hundreds of challenges that will tie players' brains in knots, and it also features a wealth of downloadable puzzles to keep things fresh. Over 50 challenges are now available for free download. Puzzle Guzzle owners simply need to select "Launch Website" from the game's title screen to access these new puzzles.

Puzzle Guzzle is rated E for Everyone, and is available now for only $19.99.
