PopCap releasing Zuma's Revenge Sept. 15th!


Recommended Posts

Originally released in 2003, "Zuma" quickly became one of PopCap's most popular titles. Like most of PopCap's titles, the game was easy-to-learn, hard-to-master, requiring you to fire clay balls from the mouth of a frog, matching colors and preventing a stream of balls from reaching an end-point. People have been expecting/anticipating a sequel for some time now, and they'd be surprised to learn that it's practically upon us! "Zuma's Revenge" is preparing to launch on September 15th for PCs, with a Mac version coming shortly thereafter.

The principles in "Zuma's Revenge" are the same as in the first game. You're still trying to match colored balls from the mouth of a stone frog, but they've gone and introduced several new power-ups (such as laser frog eyes and a shotgun-like blast of balls) as well as new modes which help mix things up a bit.

In an exclusive interview, Jason Kapalka, co-founder and chief creative officer at PopCap, was able to shed some light on these modes for us:

"Boss battles against evil Tiki spirits punctuate the regular Adventure game, and advanced players can have their skills tested by the all-new Heroic Frog and Iron Frog modes. In addition there?s the Challenge mode...where players compete to get a top score in a limited time, much like our 'Bejeweled Blitz' game on Facebook."

Other features that have been improved this time around include support for widescreen monitors and graphical resolution which is nearly 3 times as detailed as the original "Zuma."

For now, check out these screens that PopCap sent over...they should give you a taste of what to expect from the future of "Zuma."

Freaking awesome. I LOVE Zuma. I've beaten it on the PC, but not quite yet on the 360. I sure as hell can't wait now for a sequel finally, yay!

I love Zuma myself, I have it at home and on my cellphone and even though I have beaten the game, I continue to go back and play it for its fun factor.

I must say this new one, kinda adds the Abracadaball factor to it.

Its just like Zuma except for it adds boss fights, power ups, etc. Sounds just like what Zuma is doing with the new version. Can't wait
