Mercury, As Used With Thermometers, Barometers, Diffusion Pumps And Now Your PlayStation 2

LYON, FRANCE – 15 September 2006 – Atari and Ignition Entertainment are today pleased to announce Mercury Meltdown Remix, the popular franchise’s first showing on the PlayStation 2.

Take control of a liquid Mercury ‘blob’, and avoid the various obstacles and hazards to reach the end goal. The Mercury blob itself now has 4 varying ‘states’ – Normal, Solid, Fast and Slow. These states allow for larger more complex levels, which in turn mean a greater challenge and more enjoyment.
