Gameblyr, an indie-focused video game publishing partner, today announced the launch of Birnam Wood Games’ Pathogen, a boardgame-style strategy title for iOS, with a PC launch planned for a later date. The award-winning game (Strasbourg European Film Festival Award Winner: Best Indie Game, MassDigI Game Challenge Award Winner: Best Online Game) challenges players to compete with computer-controlled or human opponents in a struggle to control a game map through strategically placing and upgrading cells, which spread across the map and can convert enemy cells.
“We are tremendously proud of the job Birnam Wood Games did with Pathogen,” said Marco Mereu, CEO of Gameblyr. “Our mission is to continue to identify creative, independent developers like Birnam Wood Games and help bring fresh, innovative games to market across all major platforms.”
Like traditional strategy games such as chess and Go, Pathogen is designed to be easy to learn but hard to master. Visually intuitive gameplay and a full tutorial guide entry-level players to quickly compete against AI-controlled or human opponents of similar skill, while advanced players will discover additional challenges through a ranking system, custom maps and deeper strategic options that can result in the reversal of an entire map if a player is unwary.
