Empire Interactive Goes Wild For
Animal Paradise
Venture into the Wild for a Sneak
Peek of the Upcoming Animal Paradise Wild
Empire Interactive, a wholly owned
subsidiary of Silverstar Holdings, today released the first selection of
screenshots for the eagerly anticipated Animal Paradise Wild for Nintendo DS™.
The newest addition to the Animal Paradise family will take players to Animal
Island Park, home to wild animals from all over the world, where they will
explore distinct areas of the island including the Savannah and Jungle, each
boasting their own unique species.
“Animal Paradise Wild will introduce
young gamers and wildlife enthusiasts to some of the most famous wild animals in
the world, from a giant panda to an African lion cub and many more,” said Robert
Lightbody, product manager for Empire Interactive. “We’re really proud of the
way the game is shaping up, it’s a genuinely fun and engaging title, one we’re
sure the whole family will enjoy.”
“We are delighted with the success
of Animal Paradise. Sales of the title across Europe, and more recently in the
US, have given us a great platform to further develop the brand," said James
Spice, vice president of marketing for Empire Interactive. “We are already
receiving a fantastic response to Animal Paradise Wild and will be supporting
the forthcoming launch with an aggressive marketing campaign. The two titles
complement each other nicely and have the potential to sell for a long time to
come.”
While exploring Animal Island Park
with the help of their guide, ranger Natalie, players will come across 18 baby
animals to care for and love. In order to bond with their new friends and gain
their trust, animal lovers will be challenged with a series of mini-games and
animal quizzes. To keep in true Animal Paradise spirit, the new addition to the
franchise will also offer fun facts and photos for all 18 animals.
