3rd World Kickstarter Project Launch to Give Other App Games a Run for their Money…

Sept. 24, 2012 - PRLog -- From the vaults of Activision and the mind of Blizzard genius Ron Millar, comes the revival and release of the groundbreaking title, 3rd World (Third World). With the original design team joining forces once again in combining their talents to bring you the most advanced Massive-Multiplayer Online Tactical Strategy game ever imagined for the CyberPunk Audience, 3rd World is set to make history.

When 3rd World was first incepted and displayed at E3, PC Gamer Magazine dubbed it “One of the few truly original games shown at E3!” and “Mixes X-Com, Syndicate Wars, Jagged Alliance and Gamma World to create a fresh look and feel!”

This game was set to make video game history until Corporate Bureaucrats intervened, putting the game on the back burner for good – or so they thought! Out of the ashes of poor judgment and Corporation juggernaut egos, rises the game that was meant to be.

Ahead of its time in 1997, 3rd World’s assets were retrieved and salvaged by the original core team. With the game and team no longer under the grasp of the Corporate overlords, these seasoned video game veterans intend on keeping it that way.

It is now 2012 and much has changed in the way video games are played. Atari, Nintendo and even X-box and Wii systems are being set aside for easier and faster smart phone app games that can be quickly and inexpensively loaded to be played anywhere, anytime. 3rd World will be a part of the smartphone app genre, making itself available for both the i-Phone, i-Pad, Android phone and pad platforms.

For the CyberPunk fan, this is an electric wet dream come true. With its isometric 3D turn-based combat game setting, it focuses on small squad tactics. Players take on roles of Lead Mercenary amidst the haggard, rundown cyberpunk metropolis known as The Sprawl. You don’t go out after dark or ever, not without your gun. Watch your back for hired guns from Corporations (seems like we can’t ever get away from these guys, doesn’t it?) who are the ruling elite of the Sprawl. Reminds me of earth, if you ask me. Like any new recruit, whether you’ve played Mafia Wars or Warcraft II, you start with nothing and gain assets as you complete missions.
