Review Art Style: Penta Tentacles (WiiWare)
Tentacular spectacular
The Art Style series certainly stands out as one of the safer bets in Nintendo's stable of downloadable software. These are puzzle games with a minimalist aesthetic and focus on simple gameplay; it's like the Tate Modern of gaming only with content and a price point that's accessible by everyone. Though given an unfortunate...

Nintendo Download 21st June 2010 (North America)
Spin some tentacles, strategize against dinsoaurs, and puzzle puzzle puzzle
Nintendo hopes you like puzzle games, because that's five of the eight games released this week across WiiWare and DSiWare. To nobody's surprise, the Virtual Console has yet again been left out on a hill to die or something. But look, puzzlers! WiiWare: Art Style: Rotozoa...
Nintendo Download 28th May 2010 (Europe)
The Virtual Console returns in style, WiiWare gets arty and DSiWare gets a bunch of random stuff
There's plenty to pick from this time. You can either go with one of Kirby's best outings or a new Art Style game on the Wii, or Picross and God of War knock-offs on DSiWare. The choice is yours! WiiWare: Art Style: Penta Tentacles (600pts - Nintendo)...
About The Game
Take an unusual journey into a microscopic world in this unique action game from the genre-redefining Art Style series.
As a tiny tentacled organism, you have one simple purpose: to grow. Swim through the primordial ooze, using your tentacles to absorb other organisms whose colour matches that of each tentacle. Match the colours correctly and the tentacle grows; mismatch and you lose a life – and some of your tentacle.
Control your organism by simply spinning your way through the ooze; however keep a close eye on your flailing tentacles to avoid absorbing the wrong colour of organisms around you.

Here is a trailer.
This is one that I am definitely interested in picking up. I really enjoyed the first three Art Style games but there were a few things I think that could have made them better. I mean, Rotohex especially just was so empty. They could have at least added online scoreboards.
inspired by Flow, isn't it?.... oh and Digidrive or something like that...
I kinda wished more for this one than Light Trax... oh well, guess I'll just have to wait.
This looks weird.
This reminds me of Orbient: I'm in!
The trailer WhoKnew posted and this one are the same.
I can't wait for North America's Release!!!!
It's coming on June 21, 2010. I thought it would be out a week or two ago, but at least Nintendo got Rotozoa in there on the longest day of the year in the northern hemisphere.
Flow (PS3) ripoff?
