Gameloft Announces The Adventures of Tintin Game for Mobile Phones, Smartphones and Tablets

I’ve heard great things about TinTIn but I’ve never actually watched or read any of it which is odd for me as I quite like animation.

Gameloft, a leading global publisher of digital and social games, announced plans to launch a game based on the movie The Adventures of Tintin directed by Steven Spielberg. The game will be distributed on mobile phones, smartphones and tablets. The game is scheduled to launch timed to the movie’s release in October 2011.

“Tintin is one of the most popular comics of the 20th century,” said Gonzague de Vallois, Senior Vice-President of Publishing at Gameloft. “We’re particularly pleased to be bringing such a beloved and iconic character as Tintin to fans on their mobile phone, smartphone or tablet.”

The action-adventure game recreates one of the most famous episodes in Herge’s comic strip for the first time on mobile platforms. Combining mystery, exploration and humor, the game follows intrepid reporter Tintin, his faithful companion Snowy, and his inseparable friend Captain Haddock in search of treasure lost in the wreckage of “The Unicorn”. Players will find familiar characters and environments in an authentic adaptation of the cutting-edge technology used in the film.

Gameloft has licensed The Adventures of Tintin from Paramount Digital Entertainment.
