Yes, Ladies and Gentlemen, Shinings great "Pentomino"!
It might be no surprise and we are proud to announce that a "not so new" game is now available at PolyPlay.xyz, created for CPC enthusiasts, collectors and gamers... :)
You are able to choose between following four formats:

Except the „just a cassette“ version all editions comes with:- Carton box with cardboard slipcase
- MicroSD card incl. Disk images, soundtrack and extras
- an analog pentomino game made of wood
- 4-page instructions (DIN A5, English)
- A3 Poster

(Btw: The wooden version is a strategic feature to distract those who are holding you back from playing on the CPC. Isn't it great!)
Snatch the offer as long as it’s hot! (…spoiler end…)
Cheers.

Yes, PolyPlay shrink-wrapped them yesterday, so I cannot await to get my copy of this. When I was a child, I dreamed about releasing a game for cpc. So finally defence with its self-made personalized edition was the first step and now I've Pentomino with its professional-made editions.
I gave PolyPlay the permission to publish Pentomino free of charge. The reward for me is to see something, I coded, released in such a way. Also again thanks to HAL6128 and MmcM for gfx and music.
I will provide some photos, when I receive my edition.

I just received my copy. I opened the wood puzzle and hmm... Well I can't close it any more 😅
Still haven't tried the videogame haha

Actually just got mine from Polyplay, thought ordered some time ago.. ;D
By the way, I wonder where these 3" discs come from. Is there any factory anywhere actually making new ones?

As far as I know, Poly Play got a big batch of old-new stock. Or at least that's what I know from when Golden Tail and Magica were published.
There's no new production of 3" disks unfortunately.

Wasn't there yesterday, so mine went to the post station.
