Oxygen Games has finally announced their enigmatic title, King of Clubs, a highly anticipated mix of absorbing and addictive mini-games, featuring lots of brain tickling situations, never the same game twice, buy, hire or simply outsmart others to achieve your very own piece of property. This one's for gamers who know how to spend their spare time the "smart way."

Here are two of the mini games' descriptions, found in The King of Clubs:

- Off the wall mini-golf-based puzzler: players have to use their ingenuity to play their way to victory and lucrative rewards, whether strategically, tactically or simply by being a jerk! Players must collect, unlock, buy or hire rewards to enable them to complete a variety of puzzles across five themes, on more than 95 holes to build up their equipment and skills. There are endless ways of completing each puzzle.

- Rumor has it that an old nuclear waste site is situated underground of the Nevada desert: Complete with pteranodons on poles, spaceships on string and wobbly waves and more. Each themed world comes complete with its own quirky resident pro/boss. You must beat them in order to advance to the next level. Big Bubba King awaits for you at the end.

Oxygen Interactive's publishing director, Kevin Hassall said: "We've managed to take the mental challenge traditionally associated with puzzle games, and create a fresh, really quirky social experience that's perfect for the way people play games today."

- multiple game modes (matchplay, strokeplay etc.); - up to four players using either a multi-tap or sharing two controllers; - score one-shot wins.

While handheld owners still has to wait for it (PSP and DS), King of Clubs will be available in August for the PC, Wii and PS2 platforms.
