An explosive underwater adventure puzzle game, Big Kahuna Reef 2 lets players match marine-themed tiles in over 750 explosively charged levels, including new power-ups and the ability to create your own levels. Mosaic: Tomb of Mystery is a mystery puzzle quest in which players venture into ancient Egypt to place shapes and decrypt hieroglyphs in order to uncover the truth behind the mysterious death of King Tut. It can be played in Relaxed or Challenge modes. MumboJumbo expects to make Reflexive's games available at retail late 2006 and into early 2007.
