Prelusion was founded in 1996 with its
primary objective to create high quality games for a world-wide market. The
company’s first in-house developed product,
Gilbert Goodmate,
was finished in late 2000 and has since been published in a dozen
countries world-wide.
Between 2001 and 2003 the company worked on several
different pilot projects such as No Man's Land, Resistance, Hautings,
and the more progressed
We Come In Peace.
The company's second in-house developed title,
Jack Murphy NYPD, was also released
and a number of corporate games such as
Wild West Christmas
was developed.
The company's third in-house developed title,
Timmy the Ghost and the Treasure
Hunt, was finished in late 2003 and has so far been published in half
a dozen countries. This product was designed from start to be part
of a series of products featuring Timmy the Ghost. Prelusion are
planning to develop and release sequel titles in the
years to come.
During the first half of 2004 the company went into the publishing
industry for a brief period of time. The idea was to publish both
its own titles as well as third party titles.
In mid 2004 Prelusion started work on their first
localization projects consisting of
6
Reader Rabbit
titles and 3
Garfield
titles, in 4 languages each. This rendered in a
total of 36 new titles for the Scandinavian market in early 2006.
The company then started its fourth in-house project, the production of
a brand-new Moomin game entitled
Moomin and the Mysterious Howling.
The game was finished in time for christmas 2006, with localized versions being
released early 2007. This is the first out of 6 titles
to be developed in the new
Moomin
series. Each title will be developed in
4 languages making it a total of 24 new titles.
In 2007 the company released two more in-house developed titles. The
first being
Snutten followed by the second title
in the
Moomin series
Moomin and the Great Autumn Party. In
addition 6 more titles were localized into several of the Nordic
languages. A new addition to the
Reader Rabbit
series was localized:
Reader Rabbit English. Three new
series was started with the first being
Clifford Musical Memory Games
followed by
Freddi Fish and the Case of the Missing Kelp
Seeds. Finally a new series
aimed towards mainly girls was started with the two titles
Wendy Tournament with Trouble
and
Wendy Saving Star
being the first to hit the market. The final product
localized in 2007 was the title
Cluefinders 5th grade.
2008 holds several promising in-house projects as well as 3rd party
productions and localizations. This will further strengthen the company's aim to work
only with high quality children's titles. |
