Namco debuts new puzzles for Scene It? TV
Namco Networks has launched four new puzzle types for its Scene It? TV mobile game in the US.

They're part of the game's weekly question packs, which players download over the network. The game originally featured 17 question categories, but now it's got the four new puzzles, too.

They are: Pictogram puzzles; Sketches puzzles, Pixel Bit puzzles; and Child's Play. All involve graphics based on TV show titles or scenes – for example, Pixel Bit involves 8-bit graphics renderings, while Child's Play are children's drawings of shows.

The downloadable content seems to be going down well, too. Namco Networks says that to date, more than 26 million questions have been downloaded for the two Scene It? games: TV and Movie.

It's a further sign of the popularity of such content in the US, where Vivendi Games Mobile has also seen successful take-up of its Surviving High School downloads.
