A Zoë Mode production for the video game charity initiative OneBigGame, Chime pits gamers against the melody in an all-new puzzle experience. Place blocks against the clock, complete solid quads and try to cover the whole playing surface, all the while remixing and embellishing pieces by musicians from across the planet. And you get to feel good about yourself, too: The console version of Chime was originally developed for OneBigGame with all the developers royalties going to Charity for sales up to June 2010, and Zoe Mode will continue to donate a proportion of its royalties (equivalent to 5% of purchase price) for sales of the Steam version. OneBigGame always aims to donate a minimum of 80% of all donations to its charity partners Save the Children and the Starlight Children's foundation.

Updates to Puzzle Quest 2 have been released. The updates will be applied automatically when your Steam client is restarted. The major changes include:
- Hero selection - the first hero that appears in the hero select screen is now the hero you were last using in quest mode
- Chasm spell text updated
- Extra hero info in inventory - when you mouse over the portrait in the inventory, a tooltip appears to show you the stats you can't normally see
- 1600x900 & 1024x600 resolution support added
- Steam button - selecting the Steam button on the main menu gives you the option to view achievements, stats, the official group, and the PQ2 steam forum (must have Steam Community In-Game enabled)
- Treasure Grab! minigame loot drops have increased. Gives extra loot for matching 4/5 chests, extra loot on higher difficulty
- Mod support added
- Fix for the "Royal Door" quest door - the pathfinding sent the player to the wrong door, this is now fixed
- Gem dragging ability - added the ability to drag gems to move them
- Updated directx web installer - fixes issues on windows 7, the game wouldn't install correctly with the old directx installer
- Fixed issues with hint arrow - the hint arrow would appear in some cases when it was turned off mid-battle
- Balanced the Assassin spell 'Weaken' - gave it a two turn cooldown and increased the cost from 5 Yellow to 5 Yellow and 4 Green
- 'Completionist' achievement counter fix - the achievement was working, but the counter displayed on the user's achievements page wasn't updating
- 'You're doing it wrong' achievement fixed - it was counting the molten metal and hammer of the righteous weapons when it shouldn't have
- 'Hold the Line' spell fixed - it wasn't correctly giving immunity to Fear
- Poisons of the same kind (but with varying rarity and/or race) were stacking - poisons stacking with two varieties of the same base type was never intended and was removed. eg. You can now stack Wyvern with Manticore, or Manticore with Arachna, but not Wyvern with Wyvern, or Manticore with Manticore.
- Updated FMOD version
- Item drop tables tweaked - players will see less Normal, Fine and Masterwork grade items as they get deeper into the game. They'll see more Legendary and Epic items instead

Hard Eight, Whose Back Story?, Favorite Survivor?
Hard Eight
Double the specials, quadruple the fun!
Face eight Special Infected at one time, this is double the standard number! And if that wasnt trouble enough, we also increase the spawning frequency so it is raining Specials.
During its first release, this Mutation gained popularity through the week as people realized how much of a challenge this Mutation really was. So if you didnt try it the first time around, give it a shot.
Whose Backstory?
Last week we asked whose back story you were most interested in for the upcoming comic. We love them all, so no one is going to be disappointed but here is how you voted. I dont think we can attribute this split to the controller!
Votes by platform:
Xbox 360
30% Bill
28% Zoey
24% Francis
13% Louis
5% None
PC
34% Zoey 27% Bill
21% Francis
13% Louis
5% None
Favorite Survivor?
Many Left 4 Dead 2 players have played Left 4 Dead 1. For those that didnt, you met 3 of the Left 4 Dead 1 survivors in The Passing. Bill is normally a bit more active? You are about to get to play all 4 of them in the upcoming DLC The Sacrifice. Out of all 8 Survivors, who is your favorite?
Next week's mutation: Developers Choice!

Cossacks: Back to War is now available on Steam and 20% off until 9/8/2010.
To stand alone in war is extremely unpleasant. Extremely pleasant, on the other hand, is the stand-alone version Cossacks: Back to War. Containing all of the gameplay features of Cossacks: European Wars and Cossacks: The Art of War, this is a complete care package for all current and future Cossacks fans. This add-on contains 100 captivating missions taking place between the 16th and 18th centuries. In addition, two new nations, Switzerland and Hungary, are included. These countries waged war in the late Middle Ages and essentially influenced the development of European military strategies. This addition causes the second add-on of Cossacks to pass the threshold of allowed gaming fun.
