AUSTIN, Texas - April 15, 2008 - Software
publisher Strategy First Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Silverstar Holdings,
Ltd. (NASDAQ: SSTR), and 10Tacle Studios AG, today announced that Jack Keane has
dropped anchor in retail stores across North America. Imagine yourself
shipwrecked on the rocky cliffs of a mysterious island, surrounded by
carnivorous plants, excitable natives and ill-tempered primates - and you've
scarcely scratched the surface of the newest and most unusual point-n-click PC
adventure game available, Jack Keane.
In a peculiar turn of events, Jack finds himself on a mission to save the
British Empire, and its tea supply from Doctor T. The hilarity ensues as players
adventure through the vibrant breadth of Tooth Island, discovering exotic
locations, mischievous animals and comical characters every step of the way.
From London to Cape Town and across the High Seas, Jack Keane features hilarious
interactive dialogue, challenging puzzles, cinematic interludes and a mad
scientist's army of trained apes out to rule the world.
"Players will be laughing their way through the entire game," said Brock
Beaubien, producer, Strategy First. "The combination of challenging tasks and a
compelling story-line with such detailed scenery makes for a truly unique and
humorous experience."
Explore the rich environments, bizarre locals and the captivating tale of Tooth
Island through the eyes of sharp-witted Jack Keane and the bounty hunter sent by
Doctor T to capture him (or perhaps his heart), Amanda. The game's remarkable 3D
visuals and humor inspired by the LucasArts adventures will entertain players of
all ages and skill levels. Jack Keane has an ESRB rating of "T" for "Teen" and
is available for download or packaged purchase for $29.99.
Jack Keane is an amusing, action-packed point-n-click adventure with loads of
allusions to well-known computer games and classic movies. Set in the early
colonial period, the story leads likable adventurer Jack Keane to a wide variety
of places such as London, Capetown and the jungles of India. In London he
accepts a risky assignment for the Queen: it's up to Jack to travel to a remote
island and stop a mad scientist out to rule the world with his army of trained
apes. In the course of the story Jack meets the girl of his dreams, Amanda. With
her help he uncovers Doctor T's devilish plans - and his carnivorous plants.
Will the two be able to foil Doctor T's nefarious plan and save the
world?
