Paddington: Adventures in London and Garfield Kart Arrive on Nintendo 3DS on August 11th

Larkspur, Calif., May 26, 2015 – Iconic children's characters Paddington and Garfield arrive for children of all ages this summer on the portable Nintendo 3DS system as French publisher Anuman Interactive and Koch Media distribution label, Ravenscourt, announce the development of both titles today. The games will be published under the label Kids’ Mania and will be available for $29.99.

In the first of the two games, Paddington Bear arrives in London and tasks players with helping Paddington and the Brown family solve a series of engaging and playful mysteries in order to find explorer Montgomery Hyde. Along the way he interacts with memorable Londoners, works with the police to catch thieves, solves puzzles given by his Aunt Lucy and satisfies his love of marmalade and sandwiches.

In the second of the two titles, the world’s most famous cat, Garfield, hops in the drivers seat alongside well-known characters from the Garfield Show in Garfield Kart, the funniest racing game on Nintendo 3DS. Supporting up to four players via local multiplayer gameplay, this is the first time you can play with friends right next to you in one of 16 different tracks from Garfield’s world. The game also features single-player racing with four modes – Quick Race, Championship, Time Trial and Daily Challenge.

"It is our pleasure to join forces with such a famous distributor as Koch Media. We are convinced that games with strong licenses, such as Garfield, and Paddington, will find their audience on a system as family-oriented as Nintendo 3DS. Koch Media guarantees us the opportunity of selling our titles in many regions around the world," said Alain Milly, VP Publishing Anuman Interactive

“Paddington and Garfield are worldwide established brands and we are very happy to market with our partner Anuman Interactive to extend our portfolio with these kids- and family-friendly games on Nintendo 3DS," said Mario Gerhold, Head of Marketing GSA (Germany, Switzerland, Australia), Koch Media.
