StoryToys, a leading publisher of kids’ games, books and educational software for tablets and phones, today released Leonardo’s Cat for iOS devices. Developed by Savage Studios, this original title stars Leonardo da Vinci – and his trusted cat, Scungilli – in a lighthearted puzzle adventure that draws from the legendary Renaissance inventor’s many profoundly influential works. The game features the voice of Sir Patrick Stewart (Star Trek, the X-Men film series) as da Vinci, as well as writing by Bob Tedeschi (The New York Times) and design by award-winning creator and illustrator Michael Frith (The Muppets, Fraggle Rock).
“Watching Leonardo come to life through the imaginations of Michael Frith and the many incredibly talented writers, actors and designers on this project has been such a wonderful gift,” said Barry O’Neill, CEO of StoryToys. “We look forward to seeing how children and adults alike engage with the exciting world of da Vinci and the Renaissance through this clever puzzler.”
Leonardo’s Cat takes players on an imaginative adventure filled with challenges, storytelling and artwork inspired by 16th-century France and the Renaissance. When Leonardo da Vinci’s latest invention, the Automaton, the world’s first robot, is stolen by his devious archrival, Michelangelo, Scungilli must embark on a quest to recover its scattered pieces. To do so, players will have to use the ingenious creations of da Vinci himself to outwit and overcome the many obstacles, traps and dangers of the ancient town of Amboise.
