Snap TV & Zoo Digital to Release
I-DVD Game of Wallace and Gromit: Curse of the Were-Rabbit
Los Angeles, CA (November 4, 2005) – Snap TV Inc. announced
today that it has partnered with ZOO Digital Publishing (ZDP)
as its North American publisher of a brand
new Interactive-DVD game featuring its new release, Wallace
and Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit.
Wallace and Gromit are the main characters
in a series of British animated short films and the most recent,
a feature-length film, “Wallace and Gromit: Curse of the
Were-Rabbit.” Since the public discovered their ingenious
antics in the 1980’s, Wallace and Gromit have grown in
popularity and have become highly recognizable characters across
the globe.
To complement the release of the film - The
Curse of the Were-Rabbit – the I-DVD title has the same
name and is designed to take gamers through the same adventures
that the tandem will experience in the movie.
Nicholas Wodtke, Chief Executive Officer of
Snap TV comments, “We are excited about the opportunity
to bring ZDP’s world-class product to North America. We
expect the journey with ZDP into the licensed world of interactive
DVD games to be a long and fruitful partnership.”
Wallace and Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit
I-DVD games hit store shelves just before Thanksgiving with
a SRP of $24.99.
“Snap TV was carefully selected for its
strong distribution, manufacturing and merchandising expertise
in this important territory. The product is a major leap forward
in DVD technology, and is the first I-DVD title to transcend
the quiz-based format. The game uses exclusive CG animation
to create puzzles and skill-based games that allow consumers
to fully interact with their DVD players,” noted ZDP’s
Chief Operating Officer Andy Scrivener.”
