Politically correct fun for everyone

So far, Buzz! The Ultimate Music Quiz has the Move quiz market all to itself, but that motion-controlled monopoly won't last long, as National Geographic Challenge! is on the way in June.

Taking a leaf out of Buzz!'s fondness for exclamation marks, National Geographic Challenge! is a Risk-style affair with players competing to conquer areas of the globe with their National Geographic-related knowledge. The game boasts over 4,000 questions about photos and videos plucked from the Nat Geo archives.

Somewhat bizarrely, the game was developed by Gusto Games, the team responsible for the rather good John Daly's ProStroke Golf.

National Geographic Challenge!

Enjoy your exploration and rule the world!

International publisher Black Bean Games proudly announced today the upcoming release of the exclusively licensed videogame National Geographic Challenge! for the Xbox 360® videogame and entertainment system from Microsoft, PlayStation®3 and Wii™.

National Geographic Challenge! allows players to explore the planet through its geography and history, and to start a journey through the ages and all the continents of the world to witness the amazing extent of human endeavour.

Developed by experienced Gusto Games studios, and featuring fantastic high quality images and interactive videos from the legendary National Geographic brand, this new family game promotes interactive learning, team competition and challenges, making it the ideal title to be played competitively by the whole family and providing 100% fun.

National Geographic Challenge! includes different game modes such as single player and multiplayer Quiz games, the competitive two player Puzzle Battle, Jigsaws and other classic puzzle games. The core game mode is the challenging Explorer mode. Up to four players compete to claim territories on the globe by answering questions correctly and competing in puzzle based mini-games, and by using tactics to foil their opponents.

Start your journey, enjoy the exploration and get ready to become the ruler of the world!
