'Math Blaster in the Prime Adventure' (NDS) - 6 New Screens

by Rainier on Sept. 8, 2008 @ 8:52 a.m. PDT

Developed by Knowledge Adventure and inspired by the original hit PC game, Math Blaster makes learning fun by combining a variety of adventure-based learning games with challenging mathematic puzzles and the unique capabilities of NDS.

Knowledge Adventure is the leader in adventure-based 3D virtual worlds for 3-to-10 year old kids. With its JumpStart and Math Blaster products, kids learn through endless gaming adventures in 3D virtual worlds. By blending learning and entertainment, Knowledge Adventure’s adventure-based learning inspires kids’ minds through immersed play.

Robots control the galaxy and the fate of the universe lies in question. Armed with an experimental spaceship, players must put their math skills to the ultimate test as they blast through space to defend the human race and defeat the robotic rulers. Players master math skills in a variety of brain-busting categories including addition, subtraction and multiplication. Whether competing with a friend in Four Player Battle Mode, or testing their computation abilities in Challenge or Adventure modes, players multiply, add and subtract their way through three difficulty levels.

“This partnership is part of our strategic vision to transition the company from educational software to a multi-faceted kid’s entertainment company,” said Knowledge Adventure president & CEO David Lord. “Expanding our product footprint into this new category will enable us to create a market for future products—including our leading JumpStartĀ® brand—on console and handheld platforms and capitalize on the increasing popularity of these platforms.”

The Majesco partnership is the next strategic step in establishing Knowledge Adventure as a market leader. The launch of Knowledge Adventure’s popular Math Blaster games on the Nintendo DS platform creates a significant opportunity for Knowledge Adventure to capitalize on a growing market and increase market share for all of its leading brands within their product categories.

Math Blaster in the Prime Adventure for NDS is expected to release this Fall.
