Climbing Mt Rainier with Big Fish Games

Reach New Heights with Big Fish Games!

Our partner developers know Big Fish Games can take their games to new heights, but now we’re offering all of our partners the chance to reach new heights themselves – literally. We’re talking 14,411 feet, to be exact.

Starting this October, any developer who launches their game on BigFishGames.com will have a chance to win a trip to Seattle to climb Washington state’s famous Mount Rainier with one of the world’s premier high-altitude mountaineers, Ed Viesturs!

Ed will be your personal guide as you attempt to summit the fifth-highest mountain in the contiguous 48 states and the highest point in Washington state. Ed is one of only 17 people in the world to have climbed all 14 mountains on earth above 8000m (26,247 ft), so you’ll be in excellent hands. Additionally, we’ll take care of all your necessary climbing supplies and gear, as well as your flight to Seattle, ground transportation to Mt Rainier, five nights hotel stay and $500 in cash for spending money. You can even bring one friend with you as a traveling companion, although only the winner will be taken on the summit attempt up Mt Rainier.

Drawn: The Painted Tower Gets Customer Support Testing

Our Customer Support team in Seattle took a short break last week and dove into the world of Drawn, the new release from Big Fish Games Studios. Between answering emails and chatting with customers, they were able to get a small taste of what our Studios team has been cooking up for the last several months. Although they were only able to play the first few levels, the reaction was overwhelmingly positive.

"The game seamlessly combines adventure, puzzles and intrigue. You will be hooked in the first 5 minutes! Not to mention the artwork is amazing. Players will also be awed by the concept and storyline. Who can resist Iris, our magical heroine in distress?" - Nicole, French Customer Support Representative

"I enjoyed the illustrative approach and thought it fit in nicely with the theme and title, Drawn. The game was very engaging and challenging. I didn't want to stop playing it!" - Odessa, Customer Support Representative

Drawn: The Painted Tower Sizzle Reel

Posted on September 3, 2009 in Game News, Big Fish Games Studios
Drawn: The Painted Tower Game Sizzle Reel

Have you ever heard of a sizzle reel?

In the gaming industry, a "sizzle reel" is something very similar to a game trailer. However, the sizzle reel typically shows a bit more of the actual game play and less marketing footage - although, I guess it’s all marketing footage when you think about it...

The studio who creates the sizzle reel wants to release footage that helps bridge the gap between what the game is about and how the game plays. In addition, interesting content such as story boards or concept art is often included to ’spice things up’ a bit. Sizzle reels, of course, are meant to help build buzz and get fans even more excited about the upcoming game release.
