CUBIS - RealArcade's #1 Game!

The Java online version of puzzle game CUBIS, designed and developed by :)Smilie, shot straight to #1 on RealArcade and has stayed there ever since ... (update: 25/7/02 ... CUBIS remains #1 browser game on RealArcade! ... that's 3 months now!)

CUBIS was published at the beginning of May 2002 on www.realarcade.com and performance results just released for the first four weeks show that the addictive puzzler shot straight to number 1 and remained unequivocally the favourite game for the following four weeks on Real's gaming speciality site.

Commissioned and published by Fresh Games, a Windows e-tail version of CUBIS will follow shortly to tap into the growing Internet 'buzz'. At present the details we are allowed to release are restricted - what we can say is that the Windows version will encompass all the Java version's great gameplay plus additional game and feature elements which should guarantee a sure fire retail hit.

The game will also be distributed via other online e-tail platforms. RealNetworks, parent company of the RealArcade operation, are said to be delighted with the game and its commercial performance so far.
