Jump to launch Hanuman Returns mobile game

MUMBAI: Jump Games has joined hands with Percept Picture Company (PPC) to launch a series of mobile games based on their forthcoming animated feature Hanuman Returns.

Jump Games signed a two-year exclusive worldwide contract with Percept Picture Company to create and distribute mobile game titles based on Hanuman Returns. The first game of the Hanuman series is titled “Hanuman Returns” and features Hanuman in his human avatar who is reborn on earth with the blessings of Lord Brahma. This game will be released in December 2007 in India.

Fast-paced and packed with smashing animation, Hanuman Returns takes the player on Hanuman’s journey across jungles, outer space and far-fetched cities. Hanuman’s mission in the game is to rid the world of evil forces of Guru Shukracharya and Rahuketu. Zipping past wacky obstacles like meteors and demons, Hanuman’s character is shown to brave enemies with his mighty weapon ‘The Gadda’.

Jump is also planning to launch a contest around the mobile game Hanuman Returns as a part of the promotional activity for the game. In addition to that, the game will also be made available to consumers via Game Kiosks placed at various locations across the country.

Jump Games CEO Salil Bhargava said, “Hanuman Returns is a brilliant game that will definitely appeal to audiences globally. This was a novel initiative for us and we’ve created a game that rightfully recreates the experience of the animated film Hanuman Returns on to the mobile platform.
