Macrospace, the global provider of mobile games and mobile gaming services, last night won the coveted "best mobile game" crown at the 4th annual Mobile Choice Consumer Awards in London for its flagship title 'Fatal Force: Earth Assault'.

Fatal Force was one of 10 mobile games nominated for the award. The shortlisted titles comprised the best mobile games launched in 2004 including 'Balloon Headed Boy' from Morpheme, 'Lemonade Tycoon' from Jamdat, Gameloft's 'Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow', and the new Bluetooth multiplayer game 'Pat Cash Pro Tennis' from Kuju.

'Fatal Force: Earth Assault' is a side-scrolling action game, inspired by classic games like 'Metal Slug' and 'Contra'. In the game you have to battle your way through multiple levels across deserts, arctic tundra and even an underground cave complex, with the obligatory boss battles and surprises along the way. Every level of the game is packed with the attention to detail Macrospace is known for. Fatal Force is also the first mobile game to allow cross-device Bluetooth multiplayer gaming, allowing gamers with compatible handsets to play deathmatch-style against each other, with a selection of CPU bots that can be selected to fight with or against you.

"This award is a real tribute to everyone at Macrospace and a great reward for all the hard work over the past year," said John Ozimek, Head of Marketing and Communications at Macrospace. "It's great to see our investment into quality, innovation and original IP be recognised by the rest of the industry. Mobile games is a really exciting business to be in right now."
