Fun online game to tide Snake fans over until the long-awaited release of Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker for PSP.
Series creators, Kojima Productions, have created METAL GEAR SOLID: PIECE WALKER, a dedicated online game available via www.konami.jp/pw_game/ (Age gate). Taking the form of an isometric puzzle game, the users are given a mission to place a series of jigsaw pieces into a picture grid.
One of many monochromatic images from METAL GEAR SOLID: PEACE WALKER acts as a centre to the play area, and players must place the correct piece on to the image in order to complete the picture.
Points are awarded by placing the coloured blocks correctly, and METAL GEAR SOLID: PIECE WALKER also allows players to compete with rival puzzlers from all over the globe via its multi-player options, with the addition of bombs for the player to use against their rival for a more strategized game. The very best players will then be recorded for prosperity within the game’s online Ranking system, and the game can also be shared with friends via social networking sites, such as Twitter and Facebook.
The game is currently available in both Japanese and English language. Kojima Productions will also be adding a constant stream of new levels for players to enjoy in the run up to METAL GEAR SOLID: PEACE WALKER’s release.
