Atari Announces Forthcoming Release of Asterix Brain Training Game for Nintendo DS
Atari today announced the forthcoming release of Asterix Brain Trainer
for Nintendo DS™, scheduled for 27 June release throughout Europe
except France and the Benelux region where the game will launch in
October. Asterix Brain Trainer is packed with entertaining mini-games
led by everyone’s favorite Gallic hero, Asterix, which make puzzles,
memory games and problem solving more fun than ever.
Developed
by Little Worlds Studio in close collaboration with Asterix licensor
Les Editions Albert René, the game follows Justforkix’s journey to
becoming a great warrior from Gaul. School may be out for summer, but
there’s no rest for Justforkix who is sent to his Uncle
Vitalstatistix’s village for extra-curricular training. Asterix,
notorious throughout the Roman Empire for his wit and cunning, is put
in charge of Justforkix’s apprenticeship and guides him through a host
of activities in the little Gallic village we know so well. Exams are
held in the village school to go over what has been learned, get graded
and track progress as the player heads towards the final challenge to
ultimately reach warrior status.
“With Asterix Brain Trainer, we
are pleased to add the first brain training game to our extensive
Asterix line up,” said Cyril Voiron, VP Brand Management, Worldwide
Publishing, Atari. “ A summer release is perfect timing so that kids
can keep their minds active and stay entertained with their favorite
characters throughout the holidays and back to school period.”
Justforkix
will join Asterix’s village companions for lessons in music and the
arts with Cacofonix the tone-deaf musician, food and beverage with
Unhygienix the smelly fishmonger, combat and women with Geriatrix the
former Gergovian warrior and ageing lothario, and potions for common
remedies with Getafix the respected druid (although the recipe for the
magic potion shall forever remain secret!) As well as playing with
Asterix and his cohorts, players can bring their own friends to the fun
with up to four playing from a single cartridge in Wi-Fi multiplayer
mode.
Asterix Brain Trainer for Nintendo DS is scheduled for 27 June release
throughout Europe except France and the Benelux region where the game
will launch in October.
