New To Playfirst.Com: Ice Cream CrazeLeading Publisher Picks up Cool New Casual GameSAN FRANCISCO - January 23, 2008 - PlayFirst, Inc., the leading publisher focused exclusively on casual games, today announced that Ice Cream Craze, a new assembly management game developed by GameFools, is now available for PC download on www.playfirst.com. Ice Cream Craze sparks sweet nostalgia for casual gamers young and old, bringing back the classic age of bobby-sockers and flat tops, while treating players to the rapid-pace fun of running their own ice cream parlor. In the game, players assist 1950s teeny-bopper Jan in her quest to keep her retiring parents' ice cream shop in the family. Begging them not to sell, Jan is granted two months (which translate into 60 action-packed levels of gameplay) to prove that she can manage, fix up, and turn a profit. Set in a classic 1950s creamery - complete with a juke box upgrade and a dynamic, mid-century pop soundtrack - Ice Cream Craze introduces players to dozens of archetypal American "beats" and "hipsters," from square nerds to prom queens. Each customer has unique demands and to succeed, players must help Jan stack, top, and serve fancy frozen treats before the customers lose their cool. Faster service means bigger tips, and bigger tips mean better upgrades for the shop. Ice Cream Craze is now available for a free 60 minute trial or full-purchase for $19.95 from www.playfirst.com/game/icecreamcraze.
