Puzzler Roogoo slides onto XBLA on June 4

If you've got Microsoft Points burning a hole in your pocket, and are left wanting for yet another Xbox Live Arcade puzzler, next Wednesday's release of Roogoo may be just up your alley. Publisher SouthPeak has announced that it will drop the puzzle game onto the service for 800 MS Points ($10), promising all the fun you and up to three other players can have by sliding pegs of different shapes into their appropriate holes ... all while trying to save an alien race.

While the game draws more than a little influence from toys aimed at toddlers, our recent hands-on time with Roogoo still managed to keep us entertained, though you can judge for yourself when the puzzler drops onto XBLA on June 4.

I think some regular posters here at Joystiq are gonna have a hard time figuring out how to play this game...

I kid I kid, mostly.

I was interested until I saw SouthPeak was behind it. No thank you.

They need to stop overcharging for these games.. $10 is way to much money for a casual game like this. $5 is a little high too, but more where they should be.

Maybe all those delisted games would have sold better if they didn't rape us for $10-$15 each?.. duh.
