Hamburg, April 6, 2011For the first time ever, Mister X is now available in a browser near you! Developed by Bigpoint (www.bigpoint.com) and Ravensburger Digital, the sequel to the classic board game Scotland Yard has been transformed into an MMOG and is currently playable in German at www.misterx-online.de. Enthusiastic fans of the board game as well as gamers alike will be wowed by this online game’s spectacular new features not to mention straightforward and charming gameplay. Visually stunning comic-inspired graphics carry players off to the thrilling and intriguing world of espionage.
Just as in the board game, players will have to cooperate with each other and solve missions if they want to nab the elusive Mr. X and his fellow partners in crime. Playing as special agents, users report to the “Agency“, traveling from city to city hot on the heels of major criminals – either on their own or in a special task force made up of friends. In addition to these standard board-game elements, there are many new options for players to enjoy such as high-tech items, a variety of different vehicles plus three different classes of game characters. Depending on whether players select a highly intelligent hulk or a technical whiz kid, their decision will have an effect on the course of the game, especially when they enhance their characters’ skills using experience points. In Mister X, characters evolve quickly and so do the cities. In a world where players and criminals vie for domination, you can only enjoy the perks, if you control the city. So think first before you make your move.
After registering for the installation-free and free-to-play online game Mister X (www.misterx-online.de), players will receive a spy kit packed full of helpful items to use in the game.
