Vancouver, BC, April 25, 2013--(T-Net)--Setting sail today on iOS, Android and Kindle Fire devices, Max's Pirate Planet - A Board Game Adventure™, a game for children of all ages developed and published by Galactic Reign and The Bowling Dead developer Slant Six Games. Set on a thrilling pirate-themed interactive spinning globe, Max's Pirate Planet - A Boardgame Adventure™ allows children aged four and up to play as one of five colourful characters in an exciting race to find Barnacle Bill's lost treasure.
Along the way, players will challenge each other in swashbuckling sword fights, cacophonic cannon battles and frantic fights with sea monsters that guard hidden treasure chests across the globe. Brian Thalken, Managing Director at Slant Six Games, said “We focused on pure ‘family fun' for this title. Our goal was to create a high quality interactive game, based on traditional board game values that children and families would love to play.”
In this pass and play pirate themed children's game, players develop skills in digital interaction as they sail the high seas in an exciting hunt for pieces of the map to the Fabled Sunken City. Players must find these pieces, hidden in treasure chests which are guarded by denizens of the briny deep such as surly sea monsters and wreckful whales. Once the map has been completed, players will journey to the secret hideout of Barnacle Bill, where they must defeat him in a penultimate battle to win the game and the gold!
Max's Pirate Planet - A Board Game Adventure™ is available now for $2.99 from the Apple App Store, Google Play and Amazon App Store. This pass and play multi-player game does not contain advertising or require in-app purchases and is suitable for children ages four and up.
