Video game publisher Zoo Entertainment, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZOOG) is
proud to announce the Fall 2011 release of
"Minute
to Win It"™ for Xbox 360®.
"Minute to Win It" utilizes the Xbox 360
Kinect™ Sensor to offer controller-less reality gaming fun for the
whole family. Literally jump into the action with your Xbox 360
Kinect Sensor to compete in twenty deceptively difficult 60-second
challenges taken right from NBC's hit competition series,
"Minute To Win
It." Similar to what is seen on
television, "Minute to Win It" features the
likeness of celebrity chef and host Guy Fieri who guides you
throughout the game.
"The premise of the 'Minute to Win It'
game show translates perfectly to a Kinect experience because the
real physical challenges of the game can be implemented using a
hands-free control mechanism," said Mark Seremet, CEO of Zoo Games,
Inc. "What we've noticed during the focus group testing was that
players who weren't familiar with the show still had an amazing
time playing the game. It's just inherently fun. Also, one of the
most entertaining aspects of any Kinect game is watching video
replays of yourself and others and in 'Minute to
Win It' for Kinect we have set up challenges that will lead to
hilarious and entertaining video reels."
"With the release of 'Minute to Win It'
for Kinect, families will now have an amazing player experience to
recreate the challenges directly adapted from the hit NBC series in
the comforts of their home," said Kim Niemi, senior vice president,
NBCUniversal Television Consumer Products Group. "No matter the
occasion, families and friends can partake in the fun and
excitement as they race against the clock."
Catch ping pong balls in "Bucket Head," hit oranges into a
circle using a banana on a string in "How's It Hangin'" and bounce
coins into a jug in "Supercoin" to try and win $1,000,000.
"Minute to Win It," developed by Smackdown
Productions and licensed through NBC Universal Television Consumer
Products Group, includes four single-player modes and six
multi-player modes with two-player co-op and four-player turn-based
action.
"Minute to Win It" for Kinect is rated "E"
for "Everyone" by the ESRB and will be available October 18, 2011,
for Xbox 360 for $29.99.

About "Minute to Win It" "Minute to Win It" is hosted by
All-American chef and television personality Guy Fieri ("Diners,
Drive-Ins and Dives"). The series features competitors
participating in a series of simple, yet nerve-wracking, games that
can lead to a $1 million prize. In each one-hour episode,
competitors face 10 challenges that escalate in level of difficulty
using everyday household items. Each game has a one-minute time
limit and failure to finish the task on time will eliminate the
contestant. At various points throughout the game, the competitor
can walk away with the money earned up to that point -- but it'll
take nerves of steel to complete all 10 tasks to win $1 million.
The competitors, who come from all walks of life, are shown over 60
games prior to the competition and are encouraged to practice these
one-of-a-kind challenges at home.
"Minute to Win It" is produced by Universal Media Studios with
Friday Television. Craig Plestis, Tim Puntillo (Identity), Mattias
Olsson and Jock Millgardh serve as executive producers.
