Majesco signs new Daring book deal
Jul 6th 2009 at 12:32 by Tim Ingham

Majesco has signed a deal with HarperCollins subsidiary William Morrow to create a game based on the bestselling book series The Daring Book For Girls. The title will reach Wii and Nintendo DS later this year and lets players ‘virtually experience activities straight from the popular book’.
“The Daring Book for Girls series is the ultimate can-do, how-to ‘manual’ that celebrates the female spirit and guides adventurous girls in a range of daring and practical activities,” said Gui Karyo, executive vice president of operations for Majesco.
“This game captures that content and is the perfect interactive complement for fans of the books and other girls interested in a game designed specifically for them.”
Players can pick from one of several character models with a wide range of ethnicities and features. As they play, girls will earn gear and collectibles while having fun in spy missions, cave exploration, freeze tag, double dutch, basketball, arts and crafts, making friends, and more.
“The Daring Book for Girls series, including the new book, The Double Daring Book for Girls, has entertained and inspired millions of girls, and we look forward to the game furthering the reach of this well-loved property,” said SVP and publisher of HarperCollins imprint William Morrow Liate Stelhik.
Players will also learn educational facts about famous women in history and attempt to earn six Daring Girl Badges, such as Girl Lore, World Knowledge and Life Skills.
