F Scott. Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby is a timeless novel critiquing the American dream during the 1920s. The book has been adapted into films, plays, operas, and is even getting a Bollywood adaptation. A video game based off of the novel also was released two weeks ago by I-play.
I-play's Classic Adventures is the name of the companies series of novels adapted into hidden object-styled games. The company has also made games based off of Agatha Christie novels and Nora Robert's Bride Quartet series.
The hidden-picture games developed by I-play have allegedly been downloaded sixty-million times and more Classic Adventures are currently in development.
At Casual Connect last week, I spoke with Tony Leamer; VP of Marketing at I-play. He talked about adapting the novel into a game and the challenged behind it. There were allegedly several meeting held about adapting the novels content and how some of the suggestive material should be portrayed. The controversial content currently remains in the game. Look for our review later this week to find out how well implemented the content was.
