Mutant Alien Moles of the Dead

Today, EnjoyUp sent a press release to announce a new game for the Nintendo eShop of the Wii U, called Mutant Alien Moles of the Dead. Developed by Pixel Bones Studio (also known for Run Run and Die), it’s basically a whack-a-mole variant with aliens, but also rock-paper-scissors battles, power ups, and more.

Your mission? Stop an alien invasion that comes… from underground (sorry, flying saucers fans!). To do so, you have to whack them on your head with your hammer, before they get to you.

Here’s the main features:

• Fully tactile
• Power-ups
• A colorful, carefree world
• Stage bosses
• Rock-paper-scissors battles
• Game & Watch style platform stage
• A secret level for more experienced players.

Finally, here’s a few screenshots for the game:

Unfortunately, Mutant Alien Moles of the Dead does not have a release date just yet, but it’s already been added to the Upcoming Releases page!
