SAN FRANCISCO – April 22, 2013 – PlayFirst® Inc., the global leader in mobile games for family and friends, today unveiled the mysterious website whatsinthewater.com to build interest for its newest game launching on April 25, 2013. The gossip blog will reveal new characters from PlayFirst’s upcoming game and offer a window into the subaquatic storyline. Each day until the game’s launch, an anonymous blogger will dish up the details on one character’s role in the dramatic community of meat-eating fish. So far, the reporter has divulged that a shipwreck has broken through the bubbling seas, raining crates of collateral on swimmers below.
“At PlayFirst, we’re always thinking of fun ways to engage our fans, and we created the ‘What’s in the Water’ campaign to pique interest for our new mobile title by employing a quirky gossip-style blog,” said Marco DeMiroz, CEO, PlayFirst. “Stay tuned for more news coming from PlayFirst this week, as we’ll finally get to share what we’ve been working on for the past few months.”
