For its new Iron & Steel pinball pack, Zen Studios is delivering a western-themed table along with one based on the studio's action/strategy hybrid CastleStorm.

The CastleStorm table brings back Ser Gareth from the original game as he fights through Chief Ramhorn's viking stronghold. The table includes single and multi-ball modes, a fire-breathing dragon, and an armored troll. For the western themed original, a bounty hunter named Cindy takes center stage on a table that features a rolling train, swinging saloon doors, a six-shooter ball locker, and duels with a corrupt sheriff's thugs.

The new tables are bundled as a $4.99 pack for Zen Pinball 2 on PS3, PS4, and Vita $4.99 and become available for download on February 24. Mac users can download the individual users for $2.99 apiece on February 25. Pinball FX 2 players on Xbox One, Xbox 360, and Steam can download the $4.99 pack on February 25. If you're a Zen Pinball and Zen Pinball HD player on iOS or Android, you can pick up the tables for $0.99 apiece on February 26.

Zen Studios has unveiled two more original tablets in its Iron & Steel Pack coming later this month.

The pack consists of a table based on Zens action-strategy-RPG CastleStorm, as well as the Wild West-themed table Wild West Rampage. In CastleStorm, players team up with the knight Sir Gareth as he defends the Kingdom from the Viking hordes. The table features both single and multiball game modes in a Viking stronghold, including a dragon or two.

Wild West Rampage stars Cindy the bounty hunter in the western town of Rackton Point. The Western-inspired playfield comes complete with a rolling 3D steam engine, six-shooter ball locker and battles with the local officers of the town. The Iron & Steel Pack launches the week of February 24, and will be available on PS4, PS3, PS Vita, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Steam, Mac, iOS, Android and Amazon platforms.

Zen Studios Announces Two New Tables for Zen Pinball

Helsinki, Finland (PRWEB UK) 10 February 2015

Imagine this: Diabetic kids with ideal blood glucose levels. Parents informed of their results automatically in real-time. All results stored on secure cloud service, connecting the family with the healthcare team. How?

With the worlds first motivational and Angry Birds themed Modz blood glucose meter. With Modz, children will finally want to measure consistently and thus achieve improved blood glucose (BG) values. Points and rewards make measuring exciting and reminders help them to be consistent. Parents stay up-to-date with both e-mail and text message notifications and a web-based monitoring and analytics system.

Diabetes is caused by a hormone (insulin) deficiency in your body. Without the hormone you cannot survive. Diabetics need to inject the hormone daily. The right amount of insulin is determined by monitoring blood glucose level on a regular basis (4-12 times/day).

The UK has the worlds fifth highest rate of Type 1 diabetes (T1D) in children aged up to 14 and over 29,000 children in the UK have T1D. Fortunately, the future of diabetes self-care is now here: Modz is finally available in the UK and throughout Europe.

As studies show, the more frequently the BG is measured, the easier it is for diabetics to reach and maintain a good HbA1c value.

We're extremely excited to help motivate diabetic children and young adults to live healthier lives. Modz makes the link between frequent measuring and feeling good very concrete. The meter fosters self-care and helps juveniles become independent, says Modz CEO Vesa Kemppainen.

Take for example thirteen year old Max with a HbA1c of 75 (9%). Within just two months Max was able to lower the level to 56 (7.3%). The most exciting thing, for Max, was achieving higher game levels with the Angry Birds themed game-like monitoring system.

The Company Modz A Finnish health technology company, Modz develops products and services to motivate self-care in close co-operation with users and specialists. Our work has received a great deal of international recognition and awards such as the Red Dot design award.
