Additionally, DNA features a unique storyline and a stylishly detailed setting that lay the groundwork for experimental gameplay in three different modes.

“DNA is a fantastic game that is perfect for our customers,” said Lloyd Melnick, Director for Merscom. “It is the ideal casual game—fun and accessible, but unique, which is consistent with what we strive to create with all our games.”

Players choose from Eternal, Puzzle and Action modes to add variety to their DNA experiences. Simple, intuitive point-and-click play helps players master the game within minutes. With 67 levels to complete, DNA provide hours of original, addictive gameplay. When finished, players can save their scores and compare with other high-scoring DNA fans.

“DNA is the next evolution of casual gaming,” said Joseph M. Tringali, General Manager at 5TH Cell. “We set out to create an innovative and engaging casual action-puzzle game, and are quite thrilled with how it turned out. DNA is more than just ‘match three’; the unique ‘shape combo’ game mechanic is fun and accessible to users of all ages.”

DNA, developed by 5TH Cell Media, will be available for online distribution in early October for $19.99.
