Zeptolabs To Release Non-Puzzle Title Called King Of Thieves

The creators of popular puzzle game series Cut The Rope are set to come out with a new game in the future called King Of Thieves, and unlike any of their Cut The Rope games this won’t be a puzzle based title. Zeptolabs hasn’t given too much detail on the game just yet, but the official King Of Thieves website states the game is a mix of platformer and massive multiplayer, so that immediately makes it sound pretty interesting. The game will contain elements like PvP multiplayer where you can steal gold from other players, design your own dungeon with unique traps which you can upgrade, and you’ll be able to use boosts to breakdown defenses of other player’s dungeons. Zeptolabs says the game is coming soon but hasn’t listed a definitive time frame yet.

Rovio Stars Set To Publish Upcoming Game Called Sky Punks

Rovio Stars will be publishing a new game soon called Sky Punks with development studio Fathom Interactive. The game will be somewhat of a racer where you’ll be flying around on these vehicles called GlideWings, in an endless runner style of gameplay where you’ll attempt to whiz off as far as you can go while trying to collect items along the way. Endless runners are usually good fun so this one game to watch. It’s out on a soft launch on iOS at the moment, but look for this to drop on Android sometime in the near future probably.
