Got Game Entertainment Brings
Enki Bilal’s Graphic Novels to Interactive Life with “Nikopol:
Secrets of the Immortals”
The stories and art of famed graphic
novelist and filmmaker Enki Bilal adapted for an immersive, richly
detailed adventure game for the PC
Weston, CT
– May 13, 2008 - Got Game Entertainment today announced a
North American publishing deal for “Nikopol: Secrets of the
Immortals” (PC), adapted from the famed “Nikopol Trilogy” graphic
novel series, and major film release “Immortal”, by Enki Bilal.
“Nikopol: Secrets of the Immortals” is a visually striking, richly
detailed point and click adventure game developed by Benoît Sokal’s
White Birds Productions. The game immerses players in a futuristic
Paris and the tale of a son’s search for his father and ultimate
journey into the perilous world of political intrigue.
As Nikopol, players must use
cunning and puzzle-solving logic to thwart a dark conspiracy.
“Nikopol: Secrets of the Immortals” is scheduled for release in
August 2008 and will retail for $29.99 (USD).
“Nikopol: Secrets
of the Immortals” opens in the Paris of 2023, now ruled by a
power-hungry dictator, a place where the fascist rich and the
abandoned poor are separated by both a literal and figurative wall.
As we join our hero Nikopol, the son of an astronaut frozen in space
decades ago, we find that a floating pyramid inhabited by Egyptian
Gods hovers above the city. As one of their leaders plots to take
control of Paris and its people, word reaches Nikopol that his
father may be alive and hidden in the city's underground, a possible
pawn in a looming battle. In the search for his father, Nikopol's
journey finds him entangled in political intrigue, caught between
two worlds, one of anarchy and one of immortality.
The game’s official
website will launch later this spring.
