Today Ubisoft announces it will bring publishing phenomenon
Where's Waldo? to life in a new interactive adventure video game titled
"Where's Waldo? The Fantastic Journey." Created by Ludia Inc., "Where's
Waldo? The Fantastic Journey" is an original interactive adventure for
the whole family, as players scour the virtual globe in search of
Waldo, his friends and other hidden objects. The game will be available
for the Wii system from Nintendo, the Nintendo DS system, Windows-based
PC and Mac and sold at North American retailers in September 2009.
"Where's
Waldo? has been a cultural phenomenon for more than 20 years, with fans
of all ages on the hunt for the elusive world traveler in the
red-and-white striped shirt. We are looking forward to bringing an
interactive Where's Waldo? adventure to fans of the highly-acclaimed
book series and introducing an entirely new generation to the pop
culture icon," said Tony Key, senior vice president of sales and
marketing at Ubisoft.
"Waldo is one of the most recognizable
characters in the world, and his adventurous spirit is exactly what
inspired Ludia to create this dynamic hidden object game series for the
whole family to enjoy," said Alex Thabet, Founder and CEO of Ludia Inc.
In the game, players look for Waldo and friends, in addition to
hundreds of hidden items in twelve different magical worlds. "Where's
Waldo? The Fantastic Journey" can be played in single- or multiplayer
mode. In the multiplayer mode, gameplay is enhanced through a variety
of power-up features where players unleash different special effects to
gain an advantage over opponents or enhance their own search
capabilities.
Power-ups include:
Wacky Paint: Splatter colorful paint onto your opponent's screen to obscure the view.
Thunder Clap: Cast thunder onto your opponent and make the screen shake.
Frosty: Freeze the search window by encasing it in ice.
Sparkly: Keep your eyes on the twinkle and glitter effects to detect items.
And many more!
