Lonpos is a puzzle video game by Genki for the Wii, based on the logic puzzle of the same name. Released via WiiWare, it costs 1000 Wii Points, with additional downloadable content costing 500 Points for each pack consisting of 25 puzzles and a new visual theme.[1]
The object of the game is to fit a fixed number of beaded puzzle pieces of various shapes, called pentominoes, into the remaining empty spaces on a rectangular game board. The game features a number of puzzles of increasing difficulty, and co-operative and competitive multiplayer.[2]
[edit] Reception
Western commentators were disappointed by the high purchase price of the game, which totals to 5500 Wii Points if all additional content is purchased, as well as the lack of widescreen support and clunky controls.[3][2]
