SIERRA SPRING BREAK ’08: Sierra Online

Sierra is to release a new range of Xbox Live Arcade casual titles online this ummer.

The news was revealed at the publisher’s 2008 Spring Break event in Mallorca last week, which was attended by over 350 people from 22 nations.

The three titles on show from Sierra Online were prime examples of the kind of simple, fun games that are driving the rise of casual gaming.

Assault Heroes 2 is the second title in the old-school top down shooter series, while Zombie Wranglers is a fun take on the third person action genre involving, you guessed it, the wrangling of some zombies.

There’s also Sealife Safari, a cute Pokemon Snap-style title set in several cartoony underwater environments.
