Be wary of tentacles in Octomania!

It's just another day in Lonropia and Kari, an apprentice magician, decides to summon up some of her favorite treat: Takoyaki! But instead of delicious Takoyaki appearing, a shower of colored Ocotpi rain down from the sky.

A guardian angel appears and informs Kari that she must rid Lonropia of the Octopi. Now she must embark on a journey to find the prince Exaultus. Surely he will know what to do!

Hurry up and rid your screen of Octopi before your enemy beats you to it! Line up your Octopi in groups under the Octo-nets and watch them disappear! Line up as as you can and create a massive chain.

Pull off a giant chain and cripple your opponent with a nasty Sea Urchin attack! Clear your screen of Octopi as quickly as you can to win the game!

    * Arcade, Multiplayer and Wi-Fi Network play modes!
    * Easy to learn but fast moving puzzle-like game play!
    * Cute and loveable characters like Gobu the pig and Kanizaemon, the samurai crab! 

The game Octomania, seems to be full of the kind of craziness. A shower of Octopi attacking the kingdom of Lonropia must be stopped, and what better way is there to do that than in puzzle fashion?

Along with arcade, endless, and multiplayer modes, the game will also support Wi-Fi play. That factor, along with the silly concept and cheap $19.99 price tag, might make this game more than worthwhile for puzzle fans.

Of course, the game's release date of March 11th might end up hurting it. If Octomania is as fun as it sounds, let's hope that it doesn't get drowned out by Nintendo's big-name fighter.
