New York, NY (October 24, 2006) - D3PA today announced that Flushed Away is now shipping.

From D3PA:

Players will encounter enemies, waterfalls and traps as they thwart the villianous Toad and his evil plans. In Flushed Away, players will relive the movie and discover new environments unique to the game as they assume the roles of one of three characters in the film – Roddy, an adventurous character who is suddenly “flushed” into a bustling world below the streets of London; Rita, a beautiful street-smart scrounger who is also a thief, and the Jammy Dodger, Rita’s boat which has a unique personality of its own.

“We have worked closely with DreamWorks and Aardman to authentically bring the humor of the Flushed Away film and the personalities of its characters to life in our game,” said Careen Yapp, vice president of licensing and business development, D3PA. “Flushed Away offers a gameplay experience that children as well as adults will enjoy.”

Comprised of more than 10 levels and various exciting mini-games, Flushed Away will allow players to use a rat trap catapult, a dashing cocktail sword, pudding mix and other items found in the sewer to defeat enemies and dodge floating debris. Fun mini-games such as Castle Siege and Pathfinder extend the gameplay and offer players a chance to increase their health by collecting and salvaging rare treasures, boosting their energy through power-up items and unlocking exclusive content.
