Company description:: Quebec-Based Sarbakan is showcasing three new online game properties at the 2004 E3. The creators of STEPPENWOLF, ARCANE, GOOD NIGHT MR. SNOOZLEBERG and FIRECHILD (recently picked up by America Online) are presenting THE BUG FACTOR, OBSCURA and THE BLACK SQUIRREL, three PC downloadables geared toward the tween/teen market that will be launched in the second half of 2004.
THE BUG FACTOR is a 3d 3rd person tongue-in-cheek sci-fi adventure where the player takes assumes the role of one of the five Debuggers, a team of unlikely mercenaries that have sworn to rid Louisiana of an aggressive breed of space invaders with the help of their homemade armed-to-the-teeth robotic armors.
OBSCURA is 3D 3rd person stealth-style story-driven game in which the player must help Zephira, a young girl who has recently become an immortal, in her quest to free a friend from the clutches of the Sorcerer-Painter, an evil mastermind whose power is more than a match for hers.
THE BLACK SQUIRREL is a frenzied over-the-top 2D action fest starring a lone ninja squirrel trying to reclaim his homeland from the furry paws of the Bunnies, a tribe of pitiless plush conquerors.
This trio of exciting and original properties will prove once more that Sarbakan is serious about triggering new gaming trends with its clients!
Sarbakan is exhibiting at the Canada Pavilion, Booth # 6001, Kentia Hall.
2004 E3 Expo is taking place at the Los Angeles Convention Center from May 12th to 14th.
