Pipemania tasks players with laying down a pre-ordained set of pipes on a tiled grid to create a steady flow of liquid through the pipes for as long as possible. Empire Interactive's remake will feature five different game modes featuring more than 70 levels, as well as a multiplayer mode.

Gamers who have never played the original 1989 Pipemania or its 1991 follow-up Pipe Dreams may be familiar with the hacking minigame from 2K Boston's BioShock (PC, X360), which features a similar style of puzzle gameplay.
