PopCap Launches Bejeweled Twist for DSiWare

PopCap Games today announced the launch of Bejeweled Twist™ for DSiWare. Derived from the latest installment in the Bejeweled® franchise, this new adaptation of the revolutionary, top-selling PC game marks the first time Bejeweled Twist has been offered on any video game console. Bejeweled Twist is PopCap’s second DSiWare™ title following Bookworm™, which launched earlier this month. Both games feature unusually deep gameplay in a downloadable title for the NintendoDSiWare platform. Bejeweled Twist is available now at Nintendo’s online shop for only 500 DSi Points (U.S. $5.00).

“Bejeweled Twist is a novel take on the match-3 puzzler, and this adaptation of the game for DSiWare was a superb opportunity to simultaneously retain the ‘fun’ element of Bejeweled Twist and to take the game into a new direction that is perfect for the DSiWare system,” said Ed Allard, vice president of strategic development at PopCap. “Players are going to love the depth of this strategic game, the price point, immediate availability over the air, and the challenging new multiplayer capabilities.”
