Thumb ItIf your thumb's not already sore from all the mobile text messages you send out each day, you should give Orange Pixel's new game a try - Thumb-It. Heavily reminiscent of arcade and console rhythm games, the title transfers this gameplay to mobile phones with a unique two-thumb control system. Starting out easy, Thumb-It will put thumbs all over the world to heavy use as players try to complete the harder challenges with their reflexes.

It's also possible to upload the player's high scores to rumbleX.com, which offers global rankings for the game. Additionally, players can unlock a host of new characters and earn special bonus rewards.

Thumb-It is available now for a variety of mobile phones, either from Orange Pixel's RumbleX service or your local mobile carrier.

MechanicsMechanics is a unique puzzle game by Orange Pixel that can be controlled with just one thumb. Arguably having some similarities to Lemmings, the game lets you take control of "tools" scattered throughout a level. Using those, you must keep your Mechanics away from harm. These little guys are happily walking through the levels without knowledge of the dangers that await them at every corner.

Your task is to figure out how and when to use the tools so that all your mechanics are safe. Later levels get more complicated, with multiple tools and different solutions to problems.

At the beginning of every level, you get four mechanics. You are bound to lose some of them as you progress, but as long as there's at least one left alive, you won't lose. Once the last one dies, the game will restart from the point where you last had all your four mechanics alive.

The unique charm of the graphics combined with the challenging gameplay make Mechanics a must-have for your cell phone. The game will be released in late August.
