his fall Tecmo will deliver an action platformer to the Wii that should be of interest to fans of Zelda-type adventures. SPRay stars a young prince who must use various liquids to solve puzzles and maneuver through a fantasy game world. We recently got our hands wet with the game here in the IGN office.
