Sabarasa’s Save the Turtles Now Available for Nintendo DSiWare
BUENOS AIRES, Argentina, March 29 — Sabarasa announced today that Save the Turtles, an entertaining and challenging puzzle game, is available exclusively for Nintendo DSiWare™ for 500 Nintendo points. Set in real world beach locations, Save the Turtles allows players to provide baby sea turtles with safe passage to the ocean by navigating the treacherous costal settings filled with unforgiving predators like the ever-resourceful seagull and the crafty pincer crab as well as other perilous dangers including the harmful sun’s powerful rays and manmade hazards such as oils spills and refuse.
Boasting addictive gameplay modes for continuous hours of mind-bending fun, Save the Turtles possesses an animated flare reminiscent of Saturday morning cartoons overflowing with cheerfully bright colors, real life environmental issues and puzzles that increase in complexity. Save the Turtles features four addictively captivating gameplay modes that include “Save the World,” “Tidal Wave,” “Turtles Forever” and “Quick Play.”
“Save the Turtles allows puzzle solving fans to test their mental abilities by aiding endangered sea turtles as they burst forth from their shells and embark on a life or death trek to the safety of the cooling ocean water,” said Javier Otaegui, CEO and founder of Sabarasa. “Save the Turtles offers fans four exciting gameplay modes making this DSiWare™ game into an entertaining and challenging experience that is both visually pleasing and mentally stimulating.”
“Save the World” presents 32 levels of fun puzzles that increase in complexity as players endeavor to rescue all seven species of baby sea turtles using the Nintendo DSi™’s stylus to hatch uncovered eggs from beneath the warm sand. Players arrange as many lines of hatched turtles as possible while keeping aware of their environmental surroundings before a wave sweeps them safely into the ocean, as a result players build up combos and accumulate more points.
Additional game modes include the exciting “Tidal Wave” where players must keep their wits about them and use strategic tactics in order to meet the demands of multiple waves hitting the shore at random intervals. “Turtles Forever” provides the ultimate puzzle solving contest by tasking players to achieve almost impossible scores by saving as many turtles as possible while facing increasingly difficult challenges. “Quick Play” allows fans to instantly jump into the action and enjoy the satisfaction of immediate gameplay.
Developed and published by Sabarasa, Save the Turtles is the first of several upcoming titles exclusively for Nintendo platforms. Upcoming projects for Sabarasa include two DSiWare titles, the puzzle game Primrose and Alt-Play: Jason Rohrer Anthology which is a compilation of games created by the award-winning game auteur. In addition, consumers can expect Horizon, a Balance-Board powered action game, and Protocol, a local and online team-based first-person shooter, to be available on WiiWare™.
