Developed in Vienna, Austria by Sproing Interactive, Panzer Tactics DS is the first turn-based WWII strategy title for the portable console.

ANACONDA Games, a Germany-based publisher of point and click adventure titles has announced Undercover: Dual Motives, a Nintendo DS point and click adventure title which is a prequel to their well-recieved PC title, Undercover: Operation Wintersun. Developed by one of Vienna, Austria’s few remaining game developers after the messy demise of Rockstar Vienna, Sproing, U:DM puts the player in control of physicist and reluctant spy, Dr. John Russell in his early days, investigating a British research facility. Taking advantage of the DS’s unique abilities, Sproing intends to implement novels ideas into the gameplay, one of which will be the player’s ability to control two characters when they wish, independently of the other. Adventure fans have been asking for more point and click titles coming to the Nintendo DS, so now let’s see how the adventure gaming market responds, for Sproing’s sake.

Undercover: Dual Motives will be released worldwide by ANACONDA, starting with the German-language territories at the end of March 2007.
