• Crush 3D demo available for 3DS this week

  Nintendo has revealed that a demo of Sega's platform game Crush 3D will be available to download for Nintendo 3DS this week.

  The trial version can be downloaded for free via the Nintendo eShop and will let players get a taste of its innovative blend of 2D and 3D gameplay, which challenges them to use all their wits and spacial awareness to reach the goal.

  Crush 3D is a remake of the acclaimed PSP game Crush and centres on Danny, a young man who is trapped in a dream world created from his own worries and must escape his own labyrinthine, tangled imagination.

  Gamers can "crush" the visuals from 3D to 2D at any point, allowing them to progress through more than 50 levels in different head-scratching ways.

  The 3DS version of the game includes all sorts of bonus content, including new collectibles and unlockable artwork, as well as the ability to swap gifts using StreetPass.

  Other demos already available for 3DS include Resident Evil: Revelations and Cooking Mama 4.
