The offspring of PopCap and Square Enix -- y'know, the one that sounds an awful lot like something you'd stick in your mouth -- is nearly upon us.
When we last checked in, there was a discussion going around about how the concept of Gyromancer was spawned as somewhat of a joke. Today, we have a meatier talking point: the game's release date.
Wednesday, November 18 is when the magic happens on both Xbox LIVE Arcade and PC. Along with this news, we received a trailer that does a mighty fine job of showing just what the heck the game plays like.
I love me some Bejeweled Twist, and I have little reason to believe I won't feel the same way about Gyromancer. Who's with me?
Jordan Devore is Destructoid's PC gaming manager and founding ginger editor. He is said to be easy to love but difficult to know. When Samit inquired about his curious bio photo Jordan simply replied: "bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

I can't tell: Does anyone know if it's going to be turn based or speed based? I tried to like Puzzle Quest, but I hated that you alternated turns with the enemy. This trailer doesn't show two turns in a row, but in the Japanese version, there's one snippet of a guy going twice in a row without enemy intervention I think.

Also, Cait Sith looks like he got zombified and will probably infest my dreams tonight.
