Enkord has announced the release of Inca Tombs. Players find themselves helping a young archeologist outfit herself with some of the greatest jewels that she can find in the prehistoric pyramids. Players will also find a treasure trove of mini-games hidden in the pyramids.

Inca Tombs is one of those casual games that contain a few different types of genres of games all wrapped up in one game. Games that include mulitple genres in one game are usually really fun to play and offer great game play becaues it is always changing. The main campaign challenges players to uncover knick-knacks and expensive baubles by clicking on coins. Players have a time limit and if they don’t get the items in time rocks will come down and block the exit prohibiting them from getting to the next level.

The main campaign includes bonuses that will help players clear the coins away, as well as, teleport them to different realms. Each realm contains a different genre of game play. The realms consist of hidden object, match-three, collapse and marble popper game types. When players beat the realms they open up other pyramids.

Inca Tombs sounds like an interesting game. I like games that contain different genres of casual games because they are a more comprehensive and offer a wide variety of game play. Keeps things interesting.

Press Release Follows:

March 19, 2009 — A lost civilization provides the backdrop for Inca Tomb, a new release from casual game developer Enkord.  While collecting buried riches and outfitting a young but gutsy female archeologist with ancient bling, players will explore five prehistoric pyramids and unlock a treasure trove of fun mini-games. The full version and a demo offering one hour of free gameplay are located at www.enkord.com.

Inca Tomb features five different kinds of casual gameplay wrapped up in a single offering.  In the main campaign, players click on coins to uncover knick-knacks and expensive baubles.  Meanwhile, falling stones slowly cover a door leading to the next level.  Players must fill a satchel with enough items to move on before the door is completely blocked.  Special coins, including one that gathers several coins at once and another that knocks stones away from the exit, aid in this task.

Also buried within each pile of coins are treasure chests that contain either a bonus item or a portal to another realm.  Inca Tomb comes with four alternate realms, each of which contains levels featuring a popular kind of casual gameplay, including hidden object, match-three, collapse and marble popper.  Beating these levels helps to unlock the next pyramid.

“We wanted to pack as much variety as possible into a single product and make the transitions between the different styles of gameplay smooth and logical,” says Enkord CEO Yaroslav Yanovsky.  “We hope people have as much fun playing Inca Tomb as we had making it.”
