Freeverse has revealed plans to release more than a dozen game titles for the iPhone and iPod touch. Available immediately with the opening of the iTunes App Store will be Wingnuts Moto Racer (shown), Big Bang Sudoku and the infamous, Jared: Butcher of Song.
In Wingnuts Moto Racer (US$9.99) the player will chase evil cat-napping bikers through Andean mountains, desert highways and dangerous underground passages. You steer with the accelerometer and hit the “Punch!” button to fend-off the bad guys as the player races from checkpoint to checkpoint.
Big Bang Sudoku ($4.99) is the first game in the “Big Bang” series to come to the iPhone. It sports over 10,000 puzzles, four levels of difficulty and “crazy” pyrotechnic.
Jared: Butcher of Song (free) may have the distinction of being the only app to be available for Mac OS 7, 8, 9, OS X, the Apple Newton and now, the iPhone. This poorly drawn smiley face sings off-key in the worst Spanish ever recorded.
Moto Racer and Big Bang Sudoku will be available localized in German, French, Spanish, Chinese and Japanese. Freeverse also announced that the following games are in development for iPhone and iPod touch and should be available by September: Big Bang Chess, Flick Baseball, Flick Soccer, Flick Bowling, Flick Golf, Bridge, Spades, Hearts, Euchre, Pitch-Setback, and Crazy 8’s: These classic card games come with fun characters, beautiful graphics and support for all of the most popular rule variations. These games will make real cards obsolete.
In addition to these titles, Freeverse has stated that they have several other unannounced games and applications in active development. For more information about Freeverse’s iPhone titles, including conceptual art and videos, go here.
