Square Enix has announced that
Quantum Conundrum, the newest game from
Portal co-creator Kim Swift and developer
Airtight Games, is now available on PC for £9.99 / €14.99. Players can also purchase a Season Pass through Steam for £13.99 / €19.99, and get a downloadable Quantum Conundrum soundtrack and two future downloadable puzzle packs.
In Quantum Conundrum, players take on the role of a young boy dropped off on his uncle’s doorstep for the weekend; his uncle just so happens to be the brilliant, eccentric inventor, Professor Fitz Quadwrangle. Upon entering the Professor's vast manor home, retrofitted with crazy technology to test his latest hypotheses, players quickly realize their uncle has gone missing. Fortunately, players immediately find Professor Quadwrangle's latest invention, the Inter-Dimensional Shift (IDS) Device, which, at the press of a button, can shift the world around them to a different dimension. In order to find their uncle, players use the IDS to dynamically alter between five dimensions and progress through bizarre and challenging rooms in the labyrinthine Quadwrangle Manor. Becoming adept at using the various dimensions - sometimes in combination - will be critical to solving puzzles and moving on to the next room.
Quantum Conundrum will be available for PS3 via PlayStation Network and for Xbox 360 via Xbox LIVE Arcade on July 11th across Europe and PAL territories. Nine
screenshots and a trailer have been added in our download section.
