Today's Xbox Live Arcade release is a new action puzzle game, TiQal. Fans of games like Tetris or Lumines should check out this game, which follows similar gameplay. TiQal throws in 14 power-ups to bring variety to the otherwise standard block clearing. Local and online co-op play is also supported. Download the demo and check it out! TiQal goes for 800 Microsoft Points ($10). See more here on Xbox.com.

In addition to the release of TiQal, a game update is available for another XBLA game, Switchball. The free update for Switchball offers "enhanced graphics for a smoother gameplay experience and the possibility of even higher scores." Sounds like a similar update that was done to Crystal Quest last February.
