The Game
Read full descriptionHide full description
O "The Game" é um vídeo-jogo baseado nos níveis clássicos de jogos dos anos 80. A ideia do jogo - que nasceu em tom de piada - é apresentar o ambiente descontraído da Mindshaker, alguns membros da equipa, traços das suas personalidades, profissionais e pessoais nos mais variados cenários do dia-a-dia. Após meses de desenvolvimento repletos de riso, discussão, brincadeira, diversão e muito trabalho, temos o orgulho de apresentar o "The Game". O nosso maior desejo é que tenhas tanto prazer a jogar, como nós tivemos a desenvolver o jogo. Junta-te a nós numa viagem ao passado e diverte-te a tentar completar os níveis que criámos para ti.
