From Kemco:
In the Egg Mania series, players strive to be the quickest to build a tower
out of falling blocks. While facing challenges such as rising moat water,
wobbling towers and harmful enemies, players must keep building to prevent from
drowning. Players must also maintain stability on the towers to avoid falling
while using quickness and efficiency to advance towards the top of the board.
The original animation action spans more than five different backdrops,
including a haunted house, jungle, fairground, prehistoric volcanoes and beneath
the skies of Arabian nights. Egg Mania: Eggstreme Madness can be played as a
single player game and support up to eight players via tournament mode, while
handheld version can be played with two players via a GBA cable link.
Egg Mania: Eggstreme Madness is a game that evolves around the concept of
racing to build towers from randomly falling blocks while avoiding nasty foes
and rising moat water. The game delivers an amazing array of customisable
options for balanced gameplay and optimum challenge and includes dozens of new
characters and modes that offer puzzle game depth and replay value. Egg Mania:
Eggstreme Madness will ship in September 2002 for the PlayStation 2, Xbox and
