GARFILED’S WILD RIDE : LE PREMIER RUNNER AU MONDE QUI CARBURE AUX LASAGNES !
Attachez vos ceintures et décollez avec le jeu de NAMCO BANDAI Games Europe, disponible sur smartphones et tablettes
CERGY-PONTOISE, FRANCE Non, vous ne rêvez pas, il est de retour ! Le seigneur de la paresse, le fana des lasagnes Garfield a enfin trouvé un moyen pour griller toutes ses calories avec le jeu Garfield’s Wild Ride, un runner endiablé à défilement horizontal. Le jeu est disponible à partir d’aujourd’hui sur smartphones et tablettes pour le prix de 0.89€. Les joueurs pourront retrouver dès maintenant Garfield’s Wild Ride sur l’App Store, Android market et Amazon .
Malheureusement pour la ligne de Garfield, ses aventures se passent dans ses songes. Toutes ces courses infernales ne vont pas lui faire perdre beaucoup de poids. Il n’y a que dans ses fantasmes que Garfield est capable de défier la gravité. Lorsqu’il ne rêve pas de lasagnes, le gros matou s’imagine en train de foncer dans les airs, léger comme une plume. Le héro orange fait sa gymnastique pour chat, planant de haut en bas pour recevoir le plus possible de cadeaux et de bonus complètement barrés.
Dans Garfield’s Wild Ride, les joueurs pourront guider d’un seul doigt le félin agile à travers 45 missions variées et semées d’obstacles périlleux, le tout baigné dans 3 environnements radicalement différents. Pendant leurs parties, les joueurs récolteront des cadeaux bonus invraisemblables. Ils pourront, par exemple, chevaucher le gentil chien baveux Odie en version géante ou enfiler leur casque pour un petit tour en skate.
Ils auront aussi l’occasion de ramasser un maximum de pièces pour se procurer des objets supplémentaires dans le jeu. Garfield se laisse bien volontiers personnaliser de pleins de manières différentes, allant d’un élégant chapeau à la tenue du chat de l’espace. D’autres costumes sont à découvrir et à acheter dans le jeu. Larguez les lasagnes, c’est le moment de décoller !
Co-édtité par NAMCO BANDAI Games Europe et Anuman Interactive (sous la bannière Microïds – Games for All), Garfield’s Wild Ride est disponible dès maintenant sur iPhone, iPad et Androids. Une version PC et Mac est prévue pour bientôt.

About GARFIELD GARFIELD was born on the comics pages on June 19, 1978. The mastermind of cartoonist Jim Davis, GARFIELD is a humorous strip centered on the lives of a quick-witted orange cat who loves lasagna, coffee, and his remote control; Jon Arbuckle, his owner; and Odie, a sweet but dumb dog. GARFIELD was introduced to the world in just 41 newspapers and is now the most widely syndicated comic strip ever, appearing in 2400 newspapers. The success of the comic strip spawned a popular animated TV show, Garfield and Friends, which appeared on CBS-TV from 1988 to 1995, and is currently in worldwide syndication. In 2009, The Garfield Show debuted on Cartoon Network USA and now airs in 135 countries. PEOPLE magazine called the show, « One of the Year’s Best New Kids’ Shows » in 2009. In 2004, Twentieth Century Fox invited Garfield to star in his first-ever full-length feature film, Garfield: The Movie. A sequel, Garfield: A Tail of Two Kitties was released in June 2006. The movies earned over $340 million at the box office. Garfield has also starred in three CGI animated movies, all penned by Jim Davis. Fox released Garfield Gets Real (2007), Garfield’s Fun Fest (2008), and Garfield’s Pet Force (2009) on DVD and in limited theatrical release. Garfield also entertains his fans on a popular web site, garfield.com, and engages kids in interesting and pedagogically sound activities to promote literacy at professorgarfield.org. English, Science and Life Skills are among the topics Garfield and his pals address at learninglab.org, a public service of the Virginia Department of Education. Garfield has long been considered a “classic” or “evergreen” property because he has not only endured, but continues to be fresh and funny after nearly 35 years in the limelight.
