GAMEVIL has announced that they have signed a distribution deal with developer HandyGames, and as part of it they will be bringing Bulldozer Inc. to the US.

Bulldozer Inc. is an action game where you must knock down row upon row of condemned buildings. It’s not just that simple, however: falling debris can damage your dozer, and you have to make sure that no construction workers get missed in the shuffle.

“Many developers share a similar mission as GAMEVIL; creating mobile games with that ‘it’ element of game play which delineates an exceptional mobile game from a common one,” said Allen G. Lee, Vice President of Business Development at GAMEVIL USA. “We saw this in particular with HandyGames, and Bulldozer Inc. is a fantastic compliment to our portfolio.”
