Reading Time: 2 minutes

 

Exciting adventure game packed with suspense for Horse Club™ fans to be released on May 27, 2021

A gripping adventure at the Lakeside Riding Stable full of challenging mystery-solving fun, spirited gallop racing and lots of other thrilling quests for horse and rider awaits horse fans both big and small. The popular horses from Schleich® and the environment they live in come alive in the video game “Horse Club™ Adventures”. Children from the ages of 6 to 12 can romp and roam freely and creatively in this open-world game. In turn, the electrifying story inspires imaginative playing with the characters.

With release for “Horse Club™ Adventures” scheduled for May 2021, video game publisher Wild River Games from Munich is bringing out the first video game based on the popular theme world created by Schleich, the world-renowned toy manufacturer. The lovingly designed open-world game provides a multifaceted blend of adventure, role-playing and racing elements coupled with all sorts of mystery-solving fun.

Eventful vacation at the Lakeside Riding Stable

In the video game the children spend their vacation at Lakeside and become part of the Horse Club™ clique revolving around Hannah, Sarah, Sofia and Lisa. Together they reveal long-guarded secrets, complete exciting quests, and collect objects such as photos and stickers. It goes without saying that the appearance of the player avatars and their horses can be individually customized. While doing so, even the clothing for brand-new game characters is provided that won’t become available at toy retailers until July 2021.

Carrying out quests in a targeted fashion or exploring the open-world game

The single-player game can be played optionally in the storyline or the freestyle mode. The storyline mode is split up into 16 days and has over 40 quests ready and waiting to be completed. They range from getting acquainted with Lakeside to being accepted into the Horse Club™ clique, all the way to participating in the big Lakeside Tournament.

In the freestyle game mode the player explores the extensive terrain on their own. Optional sidequests enable kids to immerse themselves even deeper in the story and, among other activities, attend to daily chores such as grooming horses and scraping hooves, or galloping on one of the numerous race courses while competing with others for high scores and medals. The developers have placed a special focus on the collecting of stickers, photos and new items with which players can individually change their game character and horse.

Long-lasting gaming fun, virtually and physically

Figures from Schleich have stood for quality and educationally worthwhile playing for more than 85 years. The video game from Wild River Games equally orients itself in alignment with these values. The highly diversified virtual world including numerous different quests still has surprises in store, even after playing repeated games. This ensures long-lasting gaming fun for children in a variety of age groups and with different levels of experience. What arises due to the symbiosis of video game and the original Schleich figures is a balance comprised of a digital and tactile game.

“Horse Club™ Adventures” is available as of May 27, 2021 for Nintendo Switch and Playstation 4, and is additionally available as digital download for Xbox One and PC.

Renowned iGaming content provider, TaDa Gaming, is taking players on a deep dive to immersive play in latest Fishing-Shooting release Ocean Hunter. Adding to the thrilling gameplay, multipliers to 1000x and a host of underwater creatures offering significant bonuses are circling the Ocean Hunter and his net.

With Fishing-Shooting games, there are no paylines or reels, the whole screen is the game. Ocean Hunter enables players to play from the position of the Hunter on his boat; and in a change to cannon and ammo fire, a high speed net is cast, ready to capture anything and everything within the vicintity for even bigger rewards. Plus, every cast of the net adds to the Energy Bar Accumulator, building up to activate the Free Electric Net feature.

The ocean floor is a busy place for the Hunter as schools of fish, shivers of sharks and pods of whales race past. Whether Hammerhead or Razor Shark or Killer Whales, net one of these giants and trigger the Rainbow Feature for wins of 2x for sharks and 3x for whales.

Ocean Hunter is a game of strategy and skill. The settings allow for players to single out their chosen creatures by bonus value or multiplier level and fully personalise their experiences.

Multiple choice is offered with three rooms – Newbie, Joy and Honor, each with different volatilities from low, medium to high, different Lucky Wheel rewards from 500x, 750x to a max of 1000x but all offering both solo and multiplayer capabilities for social gaming opportunities.

Every click has the chance to trigger the Lucky Wheel with up to 1000x depending on which room players choose. In addition, between one and four additional multipliers of 2x, 3x and 5x are randomly applied to segments of the wheel to take the rewards even higher.

Each successful catch sees showers of gold coins pour down the screen and stack up in towers on the win counter, creating a magical visual display and recreating the feel of the casino or arcade.

Enhanced with a Sixties style “perfect pop” soundtrack and TaDa’s signature fine detail, high quality graphics and cinematic animations, the underwater hunt is the place to be this November.

Sean Liu, Director of Product Management at TaDa Gaming, said: “Fishing-Shooting games are known for being easy to grasp and getting more strategic the deeper in players get. Ocean Hunter delivers this style of play in a mobile first, fast paced and exciting adventure. It’s a great introduction for those new to Fishing-Shooting and an immersive challenge for more experienced players.”
