Picnic Panic

December 3rd 2009, Middlesbrough, UK, – Indie game developer Assyria Game Studio are excited to announce Picnic Panic for the iPhone and iPod Touch is now available on the App Store, set in picturesque picnic settings, this fast, frantic defence game needs a set of delicious picnic food to be protected from an onslaught of hungry insects!

Using the touch screen, points in Picnic Panic are scored for each bug you can splat, while splatting bugs of the same type in a row will provide an ever-increasing bonus until a different bug gets hit. Earn the highest scores by chaining together bugs of the same variety, while defending as much of the picnic as possible – it's game over when all the precious food is devoured.

Priced at 0.59GBP/$0.99, Picnic Panic features four unique locations, introducing different creepy-crawlie adversaries that will stop at nothing, albeit some frantic poking, before they can reach your food!

Features

– An array of bugs varying in size, speed, and strength

– Worldwide online high scoreboard for each level, including scoreboards for friends and local players

– Progressively tougher bugs that grow more resistant to poking

– Fast and frantic game play with satisfying, gunk-filled bug-splatting!
