PlayFirst Orders Up Two More Mac Games

Tags:

Aug. 8 /PRNewswire/ -- She's back ... on the Mac. Flo, the loveable stockbroker turned entrepreneur and the sweetheart of the casual games revolution, returns in the sequel, Diner Dash 2: Restaurant Rescue -- one of the two latest downloadable titles now available for the Macintosh from leading publisher, PlayFirst. Launching today, Diner Dash 2 and the innovative Egg vs. Chicken, developed by Gamelab, are free to try on PlayFirst.com.

"We're excited to announce that with these two games, fifty percent of our popular casual games portfolio has now been ported to the Mac, with several more titles on the way," said Brad Edelman, chief technology officer, PlayFirst. "With the help of our Playground SDK technology platform, porting games to the Mac is easier than ever. We're particularly proud of Diner Dash 2, the latest edition of the ever-popular Diner Dash franchise, because it's a Universal Binary that provides full native support for both PowerPC Macs and new Macs featuring the Intel Core Duo Processor."

PlayFirst's new games for the Mac are:

  • Diner Dash 2: Restaurant Rescue: Flo's story continues as she returns from restaurant Nirvana to save four friends from the nefarious Mr. Big Corp. In this sequel, players must manage a stream of new customer types like the Family, Bookworm, Fitness Fanatic, and Cell Phone Addict. Diner Dash 2 also introduces new obstacles on the restaurant floor and fun options to personalize the decor of each restaurant. To download the game, please visit www.playfirst.com/game/dinerdash2.
  • Egg vs. Chicken: It's "three-in-a-row" meets "protect the castle" in this hilariously clever, cracked-up combination of strategy and action puzzle. In Egg vs. Chicken a small team of runaway eggs takes on a mighty army of marauding chickens as it travels through time to resolve the ultimate riddle, "Which came first?" Like a traditional slide puzzle, players must deftly slip their eggs into position, and then launch attacks against ruthless roosters and harrowing hens.

Both games are free to try for 60 minutes or purchase for $19.95. For more information on Mac games by PlayFirst, please visit www.playfirst.com/category/mac.
