An ancient relic
It may be early days for download content exclusive to the 3DS, but we can confidently say that it's been a slow start.

That's set to change on 20th October with Pyramids, a puzzler-platformer from Enjoy Gaming and Visual Impact. The publisher has also informed us that it's set to retail for €4, or about £3.60.

Interview Enjoy Gaming - Pyramids (3DS eShop)
We talk about the eShop's first 3D puzzler-platformer
We at Nintendo Life love a good puzzle, and Pyramids looks to provide just that. It originally caught our eye as one of the first announced third-party eShop titles, and it's still only one of less than ten in the running so far.
