Nintendo DS News | My Little Flufties Announced

Lexicon Entertainment, the rapidly emerging UK independent publisher, is pleased to announce the signing of - My Little Flufties, an original, imaginative and enchanting game aimed at the younger end of the market for PlayStation 2, PC and Nintendo DS.

Developed by a newly formed French team, working under the banner of DK Games, this is the first title from this co-operative which could change as each new title is developed. An experienced and talented team of 8 personnel has worked on My Little Flufties - they have previously worked on a number of top selling titles.

My Little Flufties targeted at 4 to 8 year olds is very different from other games aimed at the 'kiddies' market where here graphics, sound and music have been fused with cute creatures in an enchanting world that will captivate young minds.

My Little Flufties can be billed as 'a life simulator'. The player will take control of their very own creatures - there are 5 different species to choose from - and the game starts by allowing you to choose a creature and then the number of creatures you want to play with. If you choose several creatures, you'll receive a new egg each 30 minutes.

The creature is first an egg, then become a baby creature and starts to walk, then become a youngster and will be able to run. (2 hours and 30 minutes for complete evolution.)

Your creature lives in front of you in a quite standalone way. You will need to ask it to do a number of things such as play, eat, and drink. You can even ask it to take a shower, along with many other tasks and objectives. If you forget to take care of your creature, it will become sad and sick and if the creature needs something an icon will appear above it's head helping you to understand what is required.

5 exciting bonus games are on offer and include: Fish-o-matic, Hopscotch, Mole-o-matic, Shoot-the balloons and Find the Tweet-Tweet. This compendium of simple but challenging games is a delight, as is swimming with the fishes and running with butterflies!

Fun is core to the game and with rewards given for achieving tasks youngsters will become enveloped in the tranquil universe the game is set within, with its colourful and animated graphics, soothing sounds and music and compelling tasks.

Children can be left, unattended, to experience the delights of the peaceful world as controls and commands are intuitive, simple and easy for young minds to understand.

Features of the game include:

My Little Flufties world has been crafted to offer visual variety to keep interest high with its beautiful settings, an engaging cast will allow for a certain amount of resourcefulness so achievement will foster progression further into the game.

My Little Flufties, the perfect interactive game for youngsters between the age of 4 years to 8 years old, will keep them occupied and engrossed for hours on end.

The game is set to launch Q1/Easter 2007 across Europe.
