Copenhagen, Denmark - July 29, 2011 – Nordisk Film Games Publishing and Progressive Media/OSAO has announced today that The Marbians, a retro marble-themed puzzle game for iOS devices, will launch on the App Store and Android marketplace this Friday, July 29.

A free demo of The Marbians will be available on iOS and Android devices and will include the first eight levels of the game. Players who want more will be able to unlock an additional 64 levels for 99¢ and $1.99 on iPad.

• The Marbians is a physics-based puzzler where players must fling and flick Marbians across increasingly challenging courses to collect moon rocks and find a way back to their UFO.
• Simple yet addictive gameplay that will keep players coming back to solve the next puzzle.
• Take a trip back to the 1940's with retro rock 'n roll tunes and aesthetics!
• Players will find The Marbians easy to jump right into, but can expect many surprising challenges in this off-the-wall, retro 40's universe meets modern day gameplay.
