Default Henry Hatsworth in the Puzzling Adventure (platform game with unique puzzle elements)

Taken from Wiki:

Henry Hatsworth in the Puzzling Adventure is a Nintendo DS action-adventure and puzzle game developed by EA Tiburon. It involves a British adventurer, the eponymous Henry Hatsworth, who is on a mission to find the "Golden Suit", garb that allows the wearer to control the "Puzzle Realm". The player must solve puzzles on the touch screen to destroy fallen enemies on the top screen.

While the game is an action-platformer on the top screen, once enemies are defeated by Hatsworth, they are sent to the bottom screen as puzzle blocks.[2] As the blocks on the puzzle screen rise, the blocks that touch the upper edge of the screen are revived as enemies.[2] The player can prevent this by swapping blocks to form groups of three or more, causing them to be destroyed.[2] Certain blocks may also power up Hatsworth's attacks.[2] If the "super meter" is filled, Hatsworth will become younger.[3] If it is then filled to double its capacity, a mode called "Tea Time" activates, causing Hatsworth to pilot a mecha and become invincible for a period of time.[3]

The game has recieved a lot of great reviews to boot!
And seems like a solid title due to its unique spin on the platforming genre.



For Europeans on this message board you can preorder this game for 15 british pounds from either Amazon.uk or Play.com. So no excuse to not give it a try!

Actually, it's not made by the World of Goo makers, but the guy behind this game shared the stage at GDC last year with one of the World of Goo guy.

Henry Hatsworth is essentially an indie style game that was pitched and created within EA. It seems like it might be very cool.
