San Francisco, CA, April 15th , in the year of our Lord 2024: Indie game developer and publisher Middle Man Games has released a major game update to TWISTEX based on user feedback, focused on making it easier for new players and enhancing the overall gameplay experience. Available on PC via STEAM™ in addition to Meta® and Sidequest®, TWISTEX promises to challenge even the most talented of puzzle gamers and combines classic gameplay with original new and innovative mechanics.

TWISTEX was designed and carefully crafted for VR but it is equally enjoyable in standard mode. Falling blocks must be matched up in a classic gameplay adding new unique concepts to the genre. Rather than playing on a flat grid, you navigate shapes around a continuous, cylindrical grid, and fill the spaces to clear rings rather than lines. To do this you need to rotate the ‘tower’ using unique, intuitive controls, based on twisting, and turning the VR controllers. You also have full control over the game area, allowing you to quickly view the tower from any angle.

TWISTEX includes 48 levels that must be completed to win, and the puzzle-enthusiast will enjoy the games endless mode featuring 3 difficulties of play. As levels are completed and cleared, there are new towers that unlock, the environment changes and you can even customize and tailor a variety of settings to suit your personal preference of play. The global Leaderboards match you with other players and you can compete for the top position or beat your friends and online opponents.

TWISTEX is improved with the new major update: The environments from the PC version are now available in the Quest® version and you may choose between them and the original 'Mixed Reality Filters'. A shape guide has been added that visually shows you where the shape will land, and how far it must drop, making it much easier to place shapes where you want them. The new Practice Mode allows you to plan your strategy without any pressure and blocks at the back of the tower become darker and tweaks to custom designs, to improve their visibility in game. A plethora of other cool improvements has been made to the game and a full list is visible on the store landing pages.

TWISTEX can be played in standard mode using a controller, keyboard, or mouse, with plenty of options to suit your playstyle, while the VR version enriches the gameplay with a unique experience, with motion controls designed especially for VR.
