Most people particularly the crowd that would gravitate toward something like Pipe Mania have played games like this before. The explosion in popularity of casual games and portal web sites has meant that the familiar Pipe Dream esque gameplay idea of laying pipe (hey, quit snickering) to guide the flow of stuff from one end of the level to the other isnt new. The way Pipe Mania does it, though, is new at least in the sense that they wanted to wrap a story and some side modes around the familiar gameplay.
See, Alfonso Sr. decked out in familiar plumbers garb and inexplicably sporting a cockney esque accent not far removed from Michael Canes turn as Alfred in the new Batman movies is apparently good at his job (good enough to buy himself his own island, anyway). He wants to hand the bidnizz off to his kids, though, which is a problem because of what he calls Cowboy Plumbers, one of which is particularly bad, so he sends the kids off to tackle the islands resident bad guys first to give them some experience.
Okay, so its not much of a story really just there to lend context to a bunch of characters and their resulting special attacks (which Ill get to in a second), and to give the game a reason for having a bunch of different environments like a train yard and internet facilities, but theyre honestly just different skins for the main gameplay; the pieces are more or less the same (though the game does do a good job of constantly introducing new mechanics), which is to say youll be spending plenty of time building snaking lines all over the gridded levels, trying to build faster than the slime (sorry, Flooze) can flow through the pipes.
