Company: Kalani Games
Product: Tiki Gods: Ancient Times - Kumulipo
Kalani Games has just released Tiki Gods: Ancient Times - Kumulipo, a brand new 3D story puzzle-action game for the iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPad 2 and iPad 3. Tiki Gods: Ancient Times - Kumulipo combines puzzle solving and 3D action gameplay and pushes the 3D capabilities of the iPad 3, iPad 2 and iPhone 4 to bring a visually stunning and immersive experience to the puzzle genre.

This casual Hawaiian-themed game follows the story of 3 Tiki Gods - Ku, Kane and Lono - with the task of creating a new island. Each level contains a new 3D puzzle to solve by pushing, aligning and blasting block elements, earning hidden gems. You'll be challenged from the depths of the ocean to the tops of volcanoes.


Tiki Gods is vibrant and humorous, allowing the player to control a Tiki God on a 3D grid in solving the puzzles. Each Tiki God has a unique attitude and powers: Ku - the God of War and Fire, Lono - the God of Nature and Growth, and Kane - the God of Thunder and Lightning. The characters add a personal and emotional connection to the game thru their humorous animations, dances and original gibberish island talk created for the game.

"Tiki Gods has been a longtime game concept that I have had. Born on Maui, Hawaii, I have always wanted to share the beautiful and intriguing Polynesian myths, culture and legends by means of a videogame with the rest of the world. There is no better opportunity to do that than on the mobile, online and social network platforms. ...Tiki Gods is the first of the next generation of 3D puzzle games that is 'easy to play and challenging to master' for all player ages. It is original and innovative, combining the addictive core gameplay elements of alignment, action and collection. Players will fall in love with the hilarious Tiki God characters and be amazed by the most incredible 3D visuals seen on mobile and tablets for a puzzle game"
