Lode Runner, Wonder Blocks, Reversi Come to Click Wheel iPods

Apple on Tuesday continued to stock up the iPod Games section of the iTunes Store with three more click wheel titles: Lode Runner (Hudson Soft), Wonder Blocks (Gameloft), and Reversi (Apple). Like other click wheel games, they sell for US$4.99 each and work with video iPods, iPod classic, and third and fourth generation iPod nano.

Tracing its lineage back to the original 1983 version released for the Apple II and other computers, the latest edition of Lode Runner features 130 levels of action-oriented strategy. Players must collect gold while evading robot. Four modes are available: Standard, Expert, Master, and Gold Rush.

In Wonder Blocks, players use various shaped blocks to rebuild the Egyptian pyramids, the Eiffel Tower, and other well-known landmarks. They must figure out which combination of block colors and shapes will keep a structure's stability; the game features realistic physics and friction. Quick Play, Story Mode, Boss Rush, Time Attack, Tangram, and other modes are included.
