REDWOOD CITY, Calif., May 8 /PRNewswire/ — Secret Stash Games, a sub-brand of Eidos, Inc., one of the world’s leading publishers and developers of entertainment software, is pleased to announce Nervous Brickdown, an incredibly fun and highly addictive new arcade puzzle game designed exclusively for the Nintendo DS. This arcade brick-breaking classic hits store shelves in North America this summer 2007.

Nervous Brickdown allows players to revisit old school roots with a twist to the classic breakout game. Revamped, restyled and stepping into the next generation of handheld gaming, Nervous Brickdown refreshes the player’s skills in paddle and ball gameplay while introducing new gameplay elements across 135 levels, like controlling spaceships to blast away bricks or even drawing a custom paddle.

Nervous Brickdown is one of the best choices for a Nintendo DS game for just about everyone.”

Featuring 135 diverse levels spanning over 10 unique modes, Nervous Brickdown turns classic brick-breaking gameplay on its head by taking players into other retro gaming worlds such as intense space shooters, action platforms, and scary haunted houses. Do everything from controlling submarines or blowing the ball into bricks to taking on boss monsters.

Designed especially for the Nintendo DS, Nervous Brickdown takes full advantage of the DS’ hardware utilizing the dual screen, stylus, and microphone to present a wonderful visual style, charming soundtrack, and unique gameplay features which breathes new life into the brick-breaking genre.

Nervous Brickdown is developed by Arkedo Studios, and will be available this summer 2007.
