LOS ANGELES, California (October 21, 2014) – Silent Legends just announced that the Kickstarter campaign for their all-new digital collectible card game (CCG) NUTTY NATIONS will start on Friday (10/24). The game aims to redefine how learning can be enabled for kids through an entertainment medium like games. NUTTY NATIONS is designed for kids (7–13 yrs), and the game will be available on iOS®, Android®, OUYA, and PC.
NUTTY NATIONS features exciting but intuitive real-time game mechanics that may remind kids of tower defense games like Plants vs. Zombies. “The game is easy to pick up, and the fun is unlimited,” said Nishit Rathod, CEO of Silent Legends
Collectible Card Games are known to help with math and analytical skills. In addition, Nutty Nations features specially designed game mechanics that encourage the player to learn new things and help reinforce the concepts they’ve already learned from various sources including the game. It also acts as an effective practice tool for problem solving and critical thinking skills. Usha Guduri, CTO of Silent Legends, said: “With Nutty Nations, our mission is to finally give kids a game that is equal parts fun and learning, but where learning is such an integral part of the core game mechanics that it’s transparent to the kids.”
Nutty Nations also features an adventurous campaign mode that gets kids curious about a variety of subjects like science, mythology, dance, and so on. These campaigns involve role-playing in guided, goal-oriented missions.
“Nutty Nations explores an intriguing world where a variety of clans coexist, but not by choice,” said Chris Mirosevic, Director of Content & Marketing. Silly Pirates want the waters to themselves, but are drawn to the lands by the treasures they hold. Rowdy Monsters posses unimaginable powers, but have no clue what to do with them. Dancing Angelz secretly fantasize about taking over the world with their art. Mad Scientists are eager to unleash the power of Science and rule the world. All this scheming, plotting, conniving and evading, eventually lead to one thing… battle! You fight… or you perish!
Silent Legends is collaborating with Selen Turkay, a top-notch research fellow at Harvard Initiative for Learning and Teaching (HILT), who specializes in innovations in learning through games. Michael Carter, a games-enabled learning industry veteran, is a consulting advisor on the project.
