Mobile game developer and publisher GameLoft has partnered with Touchstone Television to bring games based on the popular Lost and Desperate Housewives TV series to mobile phones .
"The success of both Lost and Desperate Housewives has been unparalleled," ABC Entertainment and Touchstone TV senior vice president business development Bruce Gersh said, "Both shows have a huge following with deeply loyal fans, and we are confident that Gameloft, with their creative and talented pool of producers, will exceed those expectations and develop a game that captures the defining essence of each show."
Gameloft is hoping that the "Desperate Housewives" game will appeal to older women who don't usually use their mobiles for gaming, while "Lost" should tap in to the show's vast fan base.
"That's the great thing about Lost and Desperate Housewives, the plots are continually changing and there is a new element of surprise added to every episode," said Gameloft president Michel Guillemot.
Lost and Desperate Housewives are going into games in a big way, as Ubisoft (the parent company of Gameloft) is also readying a Lost game for consoles; in addition, Buena Vista Games will soon launch a PC game based on Housewives.
