Hyderabad-based gaming company, 7Seas, has launched 7 3D mobile games across genres across the globe.

The seven games include "3D Sudoku" and "Planets of Sudoku 3D" (puzzle genre), "Neetu The Alien Killer" and "Great Elude" (action), "Treasure Trove" (adventure), and "Derby3D" and "Kraze" (racing) titles.

"Derby3D" and "Kraze" come as both single- and multi- player. "Great Elude", "Planets of Sudoku 3D", and "Derby3D" are multi-lingual and come in English, French, Dutch, Italian, Spanish, and German.

Of the seven 3D games launched, "Neetu The Alien Killer" sounds most interesting partly because of the disconnect between such a common-sounding name and the fact that lady in question is described as an 'Alien Killer'. Actually, Neetu has much to do with Bollywood actor Neetu Chandra who plays the protagonist. The story revolves around Neetu's adventures as she slays the various aliens trying to eliminate the human race.
