Nickelodeon has teamed with Dallas, Texas-based online video game developer and publisher MumboJumbo to create a line of casual games based on Nickelodeon and MTVN Kids and Family Group brands including the animated series Avatar: The Last Airbender and popular youth website Neopets. The companies plan to publish three titles in the coming year, and have already released Charlotte’s Web: Word Rescue in conjunction with the debut of the new film from Nickelodeon Movies/Walden Media/Paramount Pictures.
Charlotte’s Web: Word Rescue is a word puzzle game that revolves around the beloved characters created by children’s author E.B. White. Gamers are charged with the task of weaving letters, constructing words and solving phrases to help Charlotte spin her wise remarks in order to advance Wilbur the pig in his journey from the Zuckerman Farm to the County Fair.
The Charlotte’s Web game is available through MumboJumbo’s extensive network of online game portals, including MumboJumbo.com, and on NickArcade.com. The Avatar and Neopets titles will be released sometime in second quarter of this year.
