Who said playing in the garden can't be fun? PixelJunk Eden Encore expands on the trippy experience of Eden and throws in new gardens and a few new gameplay tweaks.

The Grimp is back in this expansion pack to 2008's PSN neo-platformer. Like a tiny spider caught in a backyard garden, you twirl on strands of silk and jump higher and higher while collecting pollen and activating seeds. Encore's chief contribution is a clutch of five new, much larger gardens. Other gameplay improvements abound, such as seed-jumping combos and the addition of a much-requested alternate control scheme. But if you loved the original Eden, you?ll be buying Encore for the trippy new music tracks alone.
One of the new features added to Encore is the three-seed smart-bomb, which causes a massive explosion turning Prowlers into a giant cloud of pollen. It was revealed this week at GDC that this bomb will also be patched into the original, making a return visit to the first set of gardens.
