Neopets Legends & Letters Mobile Launch Revitalizes Brand

GARDENA, Calif., Feb. 28, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- JumpStart proudly announces the highly anticipated launch of their new Neopets Legends & Letters mobile game as they branch out from the Neopets website. This new game engages nostalgic players as it connects old Neopets fans with a brand new RPG puzzle battle. While the word puzzle game still takes place in the amazing world of Neopia, it features customizable characters along with completely new storylines and characters in a mobile format. This reintroduction of Neopets with technology designed for 2019 gamers brings new life and energy to a new generation of gamers while sticking true to the core components of the decades old brand. Neopets became one of the biggest internet phenomena and is also attributed with teaching many girls to code and ultimately pursue careers in STEM.

In Neopets Legends & Letters, a curse has taken over the land of Neopia so it is up to the player and their team of heroes to save the lands, lore and characters that Neopets fans have come to know and love. Gamers progress through this exciting new narrative adventure by collecting and battling with new and old characters with the ability to design and create their own unique and completely customizable leader as tied to the long history of the Neopets universe. This allows ardent fans to revisit the world of Neopia in an entirely fresh way and introduces new fans to a unique style of RPG battle gaming with a puzzle mechanic that is not yet offered in any other game on the market. Neopets Legends & Letters has been described as a "word game meets Neopets battling" and is available on Android and iOS devices.

CEO of JumpStart Games, Jim Czulewicz enthuses, "Neopets is a much loved brand and we devoted a good deal of time and energy to get the experience just right for loyal fans, folks who are familiar with the game but have not played in a while, and for an entirely new generation of gamers. We believe that we have captured the perfect mix of nostalgia and the elements that made the game great along with a complete refresh of features to keep Neopets relevant and exciting to everyone. Our team eagerly awaits feedback from the Neopets community for this release. We are on a mission to continue to deliver timeless and engaging Neopets games that are enjoyed by both children and adults because they are so fun and engaging for everyone."

Neopets Legends & Letters is just the first of a number of new Neopets mobile games and apps that Neopets fans can look forward to playing in the new year.
