Both games are now available for free on Square Enix’s Core Online website.
Back in 2009, Square Enix and casual game makers PopCap worked together to create Gyromancer, a Puzzle Quest style game made with Bejeweled Twist’s backbone.
Akitoshi Kawazu would like to continue the Super Famicom SaGa series with a fourth title.
Gyro, from modern Greek gyros, a circle, or to turn. This is the main mechanic behind Square Enix and Pop Cap’s RPG-slash-puzzle game. Their brain-child is part Pokemon, part Puzzle Quest, and all a force to be reckoned with.
We asked Yuichi Murasawa, Director, and Yoshinori Kamei, Producer, how the project got started and what they think about the comparisons to Puzzle Quest.
Square Enix + Peggle. This potentially awesome combination was on the table when Square Enix decided to work with casual games creator PopCap.
Gyromancer, Square Enix’s take on Puzzle Quest, wasn’t developed by Square Enix. Leading casual games developer PopCap Games designed Gyromancer which borrows Bejeweled Twist’s “twist”.
A few weeks ago, we discovered a trademark for Gyromancer. Thanks to another leak we know a lot more about Square Enix’s upcoming title.
Square Enix has been rolling in dough from remakes and spin offs, but Gyromancer sounds totally unrelated to Final Fantasy.
