Legacy Interactive and CBS
Consumer Products to Launch ‘Criminal Minds’ Video Game
Legacy Interactive today announced
that they have signed a licensing agreement with CBS Consumer Products to
develop a video game based on the popular crime drama series Criminal Minds. The
videogame, slated to launch in the fourth quarter of 2010 on the PC, will be the
latest addition to their Hollywood Hits game series.
“Legacy Interactive is thrilled to
be collaborating with CBS Consumer Products to expand our Hollywood Hits games,”
said Ariella Lehrer, President and CEO of Legacy Interactive. “Criminal Minds is
an intelligent and sophisticated television series that will translate
wonderfully into an interactive gaming experience.”
In the Criminal Minds game, players
delve into the criminal mind with clever puzzles and immersive hidden object
gameplay. The game will include characters and themes taken directly from the
hit television series. In the game, fans will be able to take on the role of
different members of the Behavioral Analysis Unit (BAU) to solve a series of
five shocking crimes. In order to track down the killers and solve each case,
players will need to examine crime scenes for clues, interview witnesses and
suspects, analyze evidence and build a profile based on real-life criminal
profiling techniques.
