Casual Game Price War!

Posted by admin on February 3, 2009 under Found on the Net, Game Giants, New Games | View Comments

Over the last several months a price war has started behind the scenes between the major vendors supplying casual games. The larger game companies such as Big Fish Games and Playfirst have been quietly lowering casual game prices to extremely low prices if you agree to join a game club. Once enrolled in a game club you agree to a contract where you would be obligated to purchase a given number of games in a certain time period at reduced cost. In many cases your credit card would be billed monthly for up to one year.

Today Gamegiants.net has decided to also enter the battle and we are planning on fighting! Today we have drastically cut prices on many of your favorite titles. Top notch games such as Cake Mania 3 and Farm Frenzy 2 can now be purchased for $9.99. These prices are 50% of the previous $19.99 price. But even better deals can be found such as  Janes’ Hotel which has been reduced to only $6.99 with many games now offered for under $10.00 from the normal $19.99!

But we are not only lowering prices. On all games found on gamegiantsworld.net and on the Game Giants branded games here on gamegiants.net the low prices are available without enrolling in any game club and without agreeing to any future purchases! The price you see is the price you pay!

Jigsaw Deluxe Makes Jigsaw Puzzles Fun Again!

Jigsaw Deluxe really does make jigsaw puzzles fun! The game combines the classic jigsaw puzzle with casual game elements found in marble popping games such as Luxor.  The combination really brings new life into a classic pastime!

Upon starting Jigsaw Deluxe you are presented with a choice of options. You can choose the picture on the puzzle you wish to play and the shape of the puzzle pieces. When you first start you see that only the first picture and shape options are available, the rest are locked. To unlock the other pictures and shapes you must enable them by spending a certain number of points that you earn by solving puzzles. The points needed can by seen by rolling over the option’s icon. In addition to the pictures in the puzzle and the shape of the pieces you can set the number of the pieces as well. The higher the number of pieces the more difficult the puzzle is to solve. The harder puzzles offer more points.

Once you start a puzzle, you will notice the pieces are released and travel around the puzzle toward an exit similar to the marble popping games. If even one piece reaches the exit you lose! As you remove pieces and place them on the puzzle, the chain shortens and you gain points. The faster you solve the puzzle the more bonus points you receive.

The gameplay is great! There are many special powerups that can help you solve the puzzle, the background shows a slightly darkened version of the puzzle so it is easier to match the pieces to their position and if you do not want to rush the game it has a relax mode that is not timed!
