Another day, another batch of games shipped to stores. Instead of giving them all their own posts, we grouped them, and so far there are announcements for:

Neopets Puzzle Adventure (NDS/PC)

A perfect game for any member of the family this holiday, Neopets Puzzle Adventure combines the hugely popular virtual world of Neopets with a variety of favorite puzzles based on the classic games of Reversi and Go. For Neopets fans, this game is the perfect extension of the world of Neopia as players will be able to earn codes throughout the DS and PC game that connect back to the Neopets website. Neopets Puzzle Adventure is a must-have game with its intuitive “pick up and play” game play, new never-before-seen areas in the Neopets universe to explore and the opportunity to redeem codes for exclusive virtual items at Neopets.com. Neopets Puzzle Adventure will incorporate several different mini-games, tons of petpets, as well as more than 100 items to equip various Neopet characters, recipes, treasures, awards and more.

In the fun and addictive game, players can either battle a friend or the enemy character to take control of the board by surrounding and flipping opponents tokens in their favor.

Based on the deep storylines of Neopets, Neopets Puzzle Adventure takes puzzles to the next level as its development is being handled by Capcom and Infinite Interactive, creators of the very popular Puzzle Quest. Set to launch this holiday season, Neopets Puzzle Adventure will appeal to both puzzle fans and the Neopets devotee as players will be able to earn codes throughout the DS and PC game that connect back to the Neopets website. Up to 10 codes per platform can be unlocked by achieving certain goals and completing quests related to the story. These unique codes will allow players to unlock exclusive items back in their virtual world on neopets.com.

For gamers that prefer their puzzles portable, the DS version, developed by Griptonite Games, will also include an additional quick draw mini game utilizing the Nintendo DS stylus and local wireless connection so players can grab a friend for the ultimate Neopets showdown!

Neopets Puzzle Adventure, rated E for Everyone, carries a suggested retail price of $29.99 for NDS and the PC.
