Astraware has announced that its Big Box of Blox puzzler has been released for Symbian Series 60 handsets, joining the existing Windows Mobile and Palm OS versions.

As you may have guessed from the title, it's a block-stacking puzzler, which sees you matching block stacks as they fall to make them disappear.

However, you also get to smash, blast, mutate and explode them by using special blocks (sorry, blox) called things like jokers, bombs, frogs, mushrooms, fireballs and, er, slot machines.

There are five game modes – Flaming Peelout, Block Atak, Groink, Mushroom King and Asylum Cubez – with a special Custom Mode option to create your own mode (presumably Flaming Atack Groink Mushroom Cubez).

All this, with suitably brain-frying visuals. The game costs $9.95 from Astraware's website, although it's also available free to members of the publisher's Club Astraware scheme.
