National Geographic to Bring Games to Mac, iPhone, Other Platforms

National Geographic on Tuesday said that it has formed an internal games division that will work with publishers and developers on games for consoles, computers, mobile devices, and online play. The first title is the internally developed Herod’s Lost Tomb, which incorporates content from the December issue of the magazine as well as the National Geographic Channel show of the same name.

The online Flash-based version of Herod’s Lost Tomb is available now, as is the Mac version, although the iPhone edition doesn’t seem to be ready yet. A PC version is also available.


Herod’s Lost Tomb

Upcoming National Geographic games include National Geographic: Panda, developed in conjunction with Namco Bandai, National Geographic: Africa, created with Sony, and Sudoku Traveler: China, Rain Forests, Greencity, and From the Bottom Up, which are all being developed internally.
