games for the holidays

Charming puzzle-platformer coming January 5th for 800 Microsoft Points.

December 2, 2010 (Malmö, Sweden) – Southend Interactive is happy to announce that ilomilo (ilomilo.com) is one of the up-coming titles for “Games for the Holidays”, a line-up of three Xbox LIVE Arcade games coming this holiday season. As a part of this trio, ilomilo will be released on January 5th 2011, at the price of 800 MS points.

In ilomilo, the two friends ilo and milo always seem to get separated from each other and it’s your task to help them reunite! It’s a world of cubes out there, where up is down and down is up. Some cubes are friendly and can be picked up, while others are more rebellious and walk about on their own accord. The two friends need to find ways to cooperate to be able to finally unite again!

You can also play ilomilo together with a special someone in cooperative mode. Cozy up on your couch with your friend, girlfriend, mom or someone else that you like and help guide each other through the puzzles! The journey of ilomilo will take you through four unique and twisted worlds filled with strange animals and cube-creatures.

Features
• Singleplayer Story taking you through 4 different environments in the world of ilomilo
• Cooperative Gameplay mode for two players, controlling one character each!
• Unlockable Raskulls and Keflings costumes for ilo and milo
• Two cool Avatar awards, including ilo and milo toys!
• Famous cameo characters from other games are hidden in the world for players to find
• Online Leaderboards: Compare online who has completed the levels in the cleverest way
• Unlockable mini game: Play the ingenious retro 2D mini game “ilomilo shuffle” with its own competitive leaderboard

The featured Games for the Holidays are ilomilo, A World of Keflings and Raskulls. All three games will feature their own unique cross title functionality, meaning if you’ve earned an achievement in more than one of these other games, you get a little extra something in each of the games! In ilomilo, you will be able to unlock awesome Raskulls and Keflings costumes for ilo and milo.

Together, these three games inspire creativity, competition, and collaboration and feature vibrant art styles, dynamic storylines, and unique gameplay for gamers of any level. This is the perfect collection of social and cooperative games to share on the couch with friends and family over the holidays.
