Due to be released in January 2009 just before the opening of the stop-motion animation movie directed by Henry Selick of The Nightmare Before Christmas and James and the Giant Peach, the game will let players take on the role of the heroine Coraline in a fantastical adventure through two distinct and interactive worlds. The only videogame based on the upcoming movie, Coraline will allow players to explore and interact with such immersive 3-D environments from the movie as the Pink Palace, its nooks and crannies and apartments, and the unpredictable Other World. Players will engage in unique mini-games and adventures with Coraline’s friends Wybie and Cat as they collect items that will unlock the mysteries of the Other World. Described as a surrealistic adventure game that will enthrall gamers of all ages with its moody atmosphere, engaging narrative and cast of colorful characters, Coraline is being developed for Wii, DS and PlayStation 2 game systems.
In the film of Coraline, the first stop-motion animated feature to be originally filmed in stereoscopic 3-D, a young girl (voiced by Dakota Fanning) walks through a secret door in her new home and discovers an alternate version of her life. On the surface, this parallel reality is eerily similar to her real life – only much better. But when this wondrously off-kilter, fantastical adventure turns dangerous, and her counterfeit parents (voiced by Teri Hatcher and John Hodgman) try to keep her forever, Coraline must count on her resourcefulness, determination, and bravery to get back home – and save her family.
