PR Newswire HAMBURG, Germany, October 22, 2012

HAMBURG, Germany,October 22, 2012/PRNewswire/ --

A classic in new format - the Krakout HD mobile gam e from Playa Games is now available from AppleStore and Google Play

Let the games begin! The new Krakout HD mobile app is now available for download from the iOS and Android markets. Successful games developer Playa Games GmbH (http://www.playa-games.com) has put a classic retro game with simple quality gameplay into a whole new format. "Basically, it's all about busting through a wall of blocks with a bat and a ball - it's easy to learn but hard to master. That's what makes the game so addictive," said Playa Games CEO Hannes Beuck. Krakout HD is now available for the full range of Apple and Android devices after its successful launch at this year's gamescom.

Krakout HD is based on the original version, but still has a surprise or two in store - up to two players can play on one device, which promises to be a lot of fun on tablets, and different levels of difficulty together with new levels randomly designed each time to keep the gameplay fresh and exciting. "Krakout HD is a game for the whole family - it's free of ads and violence," said Playa CEO Beuck; "The C64-style retro music is also sure to bring back fun memories for the more seasoned gamers out there."

Playa Games intends to build on its previous success with Bloodmoon, SoccerStar and Shakes & Fidget browser- based games; another major update is in the pipeline for Shakes & Fidget - "We've put in a few innovations into Shakes & Fidget for gamers to look forward to - I'll give you a hint, there'll be a very high tower and fairytale characters," said Beuck. A brand new blockbuster browser-based game is also planned for the first quarter of 2013, a game that will combine Playa Games' signature com ic style with an entirely new game concept. Playa G ames aims to expand its strong position on the competitive browser-based gaming market with high quality and continuous development.

The newKrakout HDgame by Playa Games (http://www.playa-games.com)will be the first to be specifically developed for smartphones, reinforcing the company's market position even further. At more than thirty million players since its inception, Playa Games is already one of the fastest growing browser-based game manufacturers and publishers; the Hamburg-based game maker began on its expansion into the mobile market segment with an Android app version of its successfulShakes & Fidget browser-basedgame.TheShakes & Fidgetrole-playing game,SoccerStarfootball simulation andBloodmoonhorror adventure have long since reached iconic status on the browser-based games market, which is not only due to the excellent quality that has already won several awards.
