Gaming News - February 2006
San Francisco, CA (February 7, 2006) - SEGA today announced the
release of The Rub Rabbits! for the Nintendo DS.
From SEGA:
The Rub Rabbits! delivers an all new "rub comedy" adventure that leverages
the unique touch-screen and voice recognition interface on the DS hardware by
delivering quirky original music, stylized art, and many new features and
multiplayer modes.
Developed by the creators of Feel the Magic, The Rub Rabbits! challenges gamers
to switch from tapping and rubbing to screaming and blowing as a means of
controlling character actions. Four brand new multiplayer modes are available
including the Hullabaloo Mode in which you and multiple friends get finger-tied
in rounds of "Twister," the Baby Making Mode in which you and a friend can cut a
cake to test your compatibility, and the Connect Mode where you can play any of
six downloadable multiplayer games with up to four friends.
"SEGA delivers on the innovative gameplay and robust content that DS owners
love, inspiring gamers to get creative and hands-on with The Rub Rabbits!" said
Scott A. Steinberg, Vice President of Marketing, SEGA of America, Inc. "This
game pushes the limits of the DS technology by fully integrating all of the DS's
features into the gameplay -- stylus, touch pad, microphone, and dual screens."
Getting the girl is never easy, especially when competing against 12 other
rivals. The hero must not only battle his rivals but also win the affection of
his love interest, and that's just the beginning of his troubles! The Rub
Rabbits! offers over 35 chapters in Story Mode; a newly expanded Memories Mode,
which tests your skills at clearing all stages for added bonuses; and Maniac
Mode which is packed with character customization options.
