14th October 2005 - Nokia today announced Shadow-Born for
the N-Gage platform. Developed by Backbone Entertainment,
Shadow-Born is set to change the way gamers use their mobile
phones for gaming by integrating smartphone functionalities
into the game. Imagine a game where characters leave text
messages, schedule calendar appointments or set alarms in
your smartphone. Shadow-Born promises a genuinely immersive
and interactive experience, taking game play to a new level
of involvement.
"We are really pushing the envelope with this game,"
says Gregg Sauter, Director, Games Publishing, Nokia. "Whether
it's the smartphone functions such as text messaging or your
to-do list, or the very fact that your mobile phone is with
you wherever you go. No other platform could offer this type
of gaming experience."
As a Shadow-Born, you are gifted with the rare ability to
see the dark truth of the world. It is a world where supernatural
beings from your dreams and nightmares surround you, and where
vampires control corporations and werewolf gangs roam the
streets at night. Shadow-Born offers a rich storyline and
is set in the hidden realms within the urban cityscape.
