Cardboard Box Entertainment announces that J.U.L.I.A. is now in closed beta testing, so the release of this puzzle game is growing nearer. "This is a really exciting moment for us at CBE. We worked hard for three years to bring players J.U.L.I.A. and we have never been closer to that point. Right now the game is under an extensive scrutiny of our testers as the closed beta test has just started and we are striving to bring you J.U.L.I.A. as polished as possible," said Jan Kavan, director at CBE. Here's a thumbnail of the game: "J.U.L.I.A. is a puzzle video game for PC built upon the story of Rachel Manners, a 35 year old astrobiologist, who was among a close group of scientists chosen to embark upon one of the most critical mission ever conceived on Earth - to encounter alien sentient life forms."
