| THQ Wireless announces launch of Top Trumps for mobile THQ Wireless Inc. announced a collection of Top Trumps branded games for multiple handsets for worldwide release. THQ Wireless and Winning Moves UK Ltd have teamed up to bring Top Trumps to JAVA enabled phones for a unique game-play experience. All four games are developed by Humagade, based in Canada. Top Trumps for mobile phones is designed for fast and enjoyable fun. Top Trumps is very simple with amazingly wide appeal. The game's premise is that each card has a picture of its character or vehicle, along with statistics on the relevant topic such as Jedi powers, top speed, acceleration and International Goals. Players pick one statistic to compare with the other player's card; the player with the highest value card wins and keeps the card. The winner chooses the category in the next round. The player with all the cards at the end is the winner. As competition is the essence of Top Trumps, multi-player gaming is a key part of the mobile versions. The built-in wireless connectivity of Bluetooth-enabled handsets, lends itself to the multi-player options, where two players can play against each other via a Bluetooth connection. Also up to four players can play on the same phone, passing the phone to the player whose turn it is next.
