Now, the duo has a new company: Monkey Gods. Its focus is on the PC crowd (mostly the casual players), though there really isn't anything on the site at the moment. The first game to come from Monkey Gods will be Snood for the iPhone, available on the iTunes App store June 1.
We've put in word for comment to the two, and will update you all on whatever we hear back just as soon as we receive it.

Snood? SNOOD?!
Look, if I wanted to play Bust-A-Move, I'd play Bust-A-Move. Not an ugly clone.

Hey - Snood was great for those of us who were colorblind. Step off.
I remember everyone playing Snood back in 2001. Wow, what a flashback.

Doesn't stop the fact that Snood's a blatant copy of Bust-A-Move (which predates Snood by about two years).

Agreed. Snood was a hideous, unapologetically blatant dupe of the classic Puzzle Bobble/Bust A Move.

...don't forget bundled with adware!

Eh, don't be too hard on Snood. You can't really blame it for being a dupe of that which is already shit.

blatant copy - more like blatant fix. It made that type of game playable.

LOOKS GOOD. i wish I had an Iphone, as this would be the SECOND game I'd get.

Why is the O in Monkey the "ricefield" character for no apparent reason
