Namco Networks and Big Fish have decided to join forces for bringing their game titles to mobile phone users in North America. Both companies are well known developers and providers of mobile game content.

"Big Fish's games have been hugely successful in the online gaming market, and we believe this popularity will continue on mobile phones", said Scott Rubin, Vice President of Sales and Marketing, Namco Networks. This being the case, "Partnering with Big Fish Games is a testament to Namco Networks unremitting commitment to bring superior mobile games to consumers", he further added. This agreement will lead to several family-friendly games for mobile phones, just to fill your time when any other entertainment is out of reach. As a result of the partnership, "Atlantis Sky Patrol" will be released. This is a casual puzzle game, meant to provide enough entertainment at any time and anywhere.

In the game, players must knock out doomsday devices as accurate and fast as possible. For this, they use colored marbles which they shoot in chains according to their color. In order to move on to the next round, the player must destroy all the cleverly-placed static marbles which regenerate the moving chains for filling the track. The concept is similar to the PC game of Zuma Deluxe and has high chances of proving to be just as addictive in its mobile version too.

"As an industry-recognized leader in mobile gaming, Namco Networks provides fun, successful casual games for wireless devices and is the ideal partner to launch Atlantis Sky Patrol in the mobile market", considers Paul Handelman, Vice President of Business Development for Big Fish Games.

"Atlantis Sky Patrol" will be launched for North American mobile phone users towards the end of this year and will be the first game resulting from the partnership between Namco Networks and Big Fish.
