Hoard is Half-Price on PlayStation Network This Week

Big Sandwich Games’ Critically Acclaimed Action-Strategy Game only $7.49 for 1 Week Only.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia — January 26, 2010 — The PlayStation®Network today announced an “11 for 11” sale featuring 11 critically acclaimed titles reduced to half-price for one week only.  Included in this mix is Big Sandwich’s thrilling dragon-themed game HOARD™, where 1 to 4 players compete or co-operate to gather the most gold possible in a limited amount of time.

HOARD™ combines action and strategy elements to create an innovative gameplay mix unlike anything else on the store.  The game features over 35 levels, 4 game modes, 100+ badges to earn, trophy support, leaderboards, and any combination of couch and online players.  Best of all, HOARD™ puts the dragon in the hero’s role, where he must strive against cruel knights, fierce wizards, conniving burglars, and even rampaging giants.

Critics and consumers alike have appreciated HOARD’s unique design.  IGN recently honored HOARD™ with the “Best Quick Fix” Best of 2010 award, and the game was also nominated in the “Best Competitive Multiplayer” category.  Joystiq says “HOARD’s gameplay shines,” and 1UP reports “the game hides a surprising layer of complexity and strategy.”

“If you’ve been keeping an eye on HOARD™ but have been waiting for the right time to try it, now’s officially that time,” says Glenn Barnes, Big Sandwich’s Creative Director.  “For less than 8 bucks you get a proven, acclaimed game with over 20 hours of gameplay.  It’s a no-brainer.”

Gamers can purchase HOARD™ on the PlayStation®Network for the half-price discount through January 31, 2011.
