Eidos announces 'Soul Bubbles' action-puzzler for DS


Though we were seriously hoping for a Soul Calibur, Bubble Bobble mashup, it appears that the new Eidos action-puzzler Soul Bubbles might still be worth our time, promising unique puzzle-solving gameplay and... lots of bubbles.

Developed by Mekensleep, Soul Bubbles has players guiding mystical spirits to safety by transporting them in bubbles. The game features 40 levels of gameplay, with each level focused around delicately guiding the spirits in bubbles, as well as using bubbles to solve environmental puzzles. The microphone will appropriately be used for bubble blowing, and the game will also rely heavily on stylus control.

Already Soul Bubbles is sounding a bit more unique than your standard puzzle title, but let's hope that the game doesn't pull an Elebits and ultimately fail in the execution. Soul Bubbles is currently slated for a summer 2008 release.
