Namco Networks announces the availability of the hit PC game Atlantis Sky Patrol on mobile. The game is company's first title through its partnership with Big Fish Games. Atlantis Sky Patrol is an original
marble-matching puzzler with hundreds of levels, mini-games and innovative game play mechanics.

In the game, players lead Atlantis Sky Patrol in the fight to destroy Doomsday Devices that have been detected in the skies above the Earth. With a double-tiered game mechanic, there are two game objectives to clear each level. The first is to dismantle the machine's stationary control mechanism. The second is to clear the chain of marbles within each level by shooting matching colored marbles.

"Atlantis Sky Patrol is a fantastic game with a strong following. Namco successfully translated the quick and intuitive play onto the mobile platform," said Patrick Wylie, vice president of Big Fish Games Studios. "We are committed to delivering the best game experiences to our customers and our partnership with Namco for the mobile version of Atlantis Sky Patrol continues that tradition of excellence."

In the game, players can set off chain reaction combos to score big points and obtain one of the 12 power-ups in the game, such as releasing the Rainbow Hammer, harnessing the Soul of Atlantis, and unleashing the Oriphculum Bomb to assist in the destruction of the Doomsday Devices. By collecting coins, players can upgrade the ship, enhancing its firing speed and improving shooting accuracy. Mini-games found throughout the game offer additional opportunities for players to obtain coins.

The game is compatible with a wide range of handsets than feature Java MIDP and can be acquired starting today.
