James Patterson’s Daniel X becomes a game
THQ today announced its plans to bring James Patterson’s book series, The Dangerous Days of Daniel X, to the Nintendo DSi and Nintendo DS in January 2010. The books revolve around a boy named Daniel, who has special powers that allow him to create things - a power he inherited from his alien parents. Meep, meep. Daniel also inherited a Wanted List of aliens that are bent on destroying planet Earth. It is up to Daniel to use his powers to stop them.
Daniel X allows players to create objects out of thin air and implement them to overcome obstacles, save friends and prevent the aliens on The List from taking over the world. As Daniel traverses an alien world, that skill will be vital in solving puzzles and battling enemies so that he can return home to Earth.
The game is being developed by Griptonite Games and will be available for the Nintendo DSi and DS for a suggested price of $29.99 this upcoming January.
