PSP Minis: Widgets Odyssey 2

Kris Erickson • Jul 30, 2010 • Comments ()

Widgets Odyssey 2 arrives this week on the PlayStation Store in North America for the price of $1.99 USD. As a PlayStation Minis title, playable on both the PS3 and PSP systems, Widgets Odyssey II will conclude the intergalactic platforming exploits of Spad, Cosmo, Bruce, Helmet and Monk who we met in the first game.

Widgets Odyssey 2 is a puzzle-platformer game in which players lead a group of robots to rescue kidnapped robot children. Players can kick or punch robots, and throw explosive barrels to defeat the enemy creatures while traversing through side-scrolling levels. In one part of the game, players pilot a giant robot head to shoot and defeat walking enemy turrets and flying mechanical robots.

"What a summer! I think with the release of Widgets Odyssey and Young Thor, we have shown the gaming world at large that the PlayStation Minis platform is one worth paying attention to," said Steve Couture, CEO and co-founder of Frima Studio. "We're proud to continue that tradition with Widgets Odyssey II, and we can't wait to see the reaction from gamers looking to play the next great Mini."

In the Widgets Odyssey saga, five robots aboard their space vessel have just one simple mission... to save the universe from the tyrannical Yagor and his evil henchmen. Armed with the abilities of Spad, Cosmo, Bruce, Helmut, and Monk, players will guide each robot along their exciting adventures filled with puzzles, mazes and minigames.
