Majesco, Cartoon Network Offer Game for Kids
Majesco Entertainment, a video games provider, and Cartoon Network
Enterprises (CNE) say that Cartoon Network Universe: FusionFall for PC
and Mac has shipped to U.S. retail outlets. It’s said to be the first
massively multiplayer online game (MMOG) for kids. As 'Victory Pack
Exclusive,' it’ll be available in stores Jan. 14.
FusionFall is set within a re-imagined Cartoon Network universe where
players must rally together to defend the world from an epic alien
invasion. The Victory Pack Exclusive retail version of FusionFall comes
with extras including: a four month subscription to the online game, a
game guide with details of all "Nanos," monsters and adventure paths,
and codes for two exclusive outfit and weapon sets.
It goes
like this: The intergalactic conqueror Planet Fusion is invading the
Cartoon Network world - warping terrain, corrupting the environment, and
creating evil Cartoon Network character clones!
Players
must team up with the online community and more than 50 characters from
some of Cartoon Network's shows – including Ben 10 Alien Force, Dexter's
Laboratory, Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, Ed, Edd' n Eddy, The
Powerpuff Girls, Kids Next Door, Samurai Jack, and others, to restore
order to the Cartoon Network universe.
After
creating their own unique avatar, players will explore a massive 17-plus
square kilometer area with 60 playable zones including familiar areas
from Cartoon Network shows and fusion "infected" areas.
Created
through a partnership with a Korean MMOG developer Grigon Entertainment,
FusionFall is a mix of 3-D console platform game action and all the
customization, character development and open-ended world exploration of
a MMORPG (massively multi-player online role-playing game).
Players
can collect a variety of items throughout the game, including more than
30 customizable "Nanos" - tiny stylized versions of Cartoon Network's
famous characters that provide special powers and abilities across more
than 600 unique missions.
In
addition, FusionFall's distinctive visual approach combines an all-new
cel-shaded anime style fit within the familiar look and feel of Cartoon
Network.
Rated
E10+ for Everyone 10 and up, the Cartoon Network Universe: FusionFall
Victory Pack Exclusive for PC and Mac will be available in stores
January 14th for the suggested retail price of $19.99.
According to Majesco, the game will also officially launch online the
