In addition to pushing and pulling colorful blocks, the active verb in Stretchmo is right there in the game’s name: stretching. Players make their way through multiple puzzling levels by moving around blocks to reach the goal – even stretching certain blocks to extend them from every side. Players can even stretch the limits of their own imaginations and create levels in Stretchmo Studio, save them and share via a QR Code with friends and family members who also own the game! Stretchmo Studio is unlocked by purchasing any attraction pass. Additionally, different features are unlocked as players complete more levels throughout the attractions.
Stretchmo is now available exclusively in the Nintendo eShop on Nintendo 3DS. For more information about the game, visit http://stretchmo.nintendo.com.

My Thoughts
I am a big fan of the original game Pushmo game and the Crashmo game is cool too but is way too hard, this seems more like am advancement of the pushmo game so I am interested. It's odd how Nintendo is selling this game with the player picking and choosing the content of the game. This game announcement and release is totally out of nowhere so so it's a nice surprise and I'm not sure why this wasn't included in the regular press release for eshop downloads or mentioned before today.
