"Gel: Set & Match offers brain-busting fun for everyone with its unique take on puzzle gameplay. Match colored blocks together and they melt, but throw a melting block into another one and the chain continues! In Puzzle Mode, blocks are arranged to test your wits. Action mode throws in a side-scrolling twist and challenges you to clear a path. Battle mode puts you up against your friends in fast-paced multiplayer showdowns. Jiggle up, and get ready for fun!"

Gel will be 800MSP and will be available this Wednesday.
