Amazon Game Studios Reveals Exclusive Fire Phone Titles
Amazon is throwing its hat into the smartphone ring, and it's bringing exclusive games with it to entice consumers. Today, Amazon Game Studios announced Saber's Edge and To-Fu Fury will come to Amazon's Fire Phone, both of which implement the phone's Dynamic Perspective 3D effect.
Saber's Edge is a match-3 style puzzle game in which players clear gems to power their pirate characters' attacks in battle. By tilting one's head or the device itself, players can rotate the four-sided game board cube to connect more pieces and land combos on their enemies.
To-Fu Fury is a puzzle-platforming game that also uses the Dynamic Perspective feature to survey the stage. The player guides To-Fu, a tofu cube, through perilous mazes swarming with enemies by flicking his adhesive body onto the next safe surface.
Amazon's Fire Phone ships July 25. For more on Amazon and gaming, check out our take on Amazon Fire TV and what it offers for gaming.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
