Play testers enthused by Project White Rock N-Gage game
Nokia's cross-platform multiplayer game goes alpha
Like a sickly thin socialite slipping unnoticed to the ladies for a quick sniff, Nokia has quietly moved its enigmatic Project White Rock into alpha.
The game, which we previously reported on as promising to break new ground with its N-Gage-to-PC connectivity, is expected to launch sometime early in the new year.
We've yet to get our hands on the title, but a memo leaked from the testing lead points to some highly addictive stuff. "Testers who have been with the game since the start have insisted on staying with the game for as long as possible," wrote the test project manager.
If true, the fact testers are enjoying the game to this extent bodes well for Project White Rock, as the endlessly repetitive nature of their job would drink anyone dry of enthusiasm.
The multiplayer focus of Project White Rock has likely lead it to being such a hit with testers. Exactly how the game functions across both N-Gage-supported handsets and PCs is unclear, but we're looking forward to drafting a preview of our impressions in the near future.
