The Amazon Kids+ Original Games team and game-development studio Amber collaborated closely with p.w. Games and Sunlight Entertainment to create the game, including design and character development. The game builds on the success of the "Super Spy Ryan" special and adapts the show's content into a multiplayer gaming romp for ages six and up. The "Super Spy Ryan" special and game are based on the Ryan's World brand starring 10-year old Ryan Kaji, the biggest name in kids' entertainment.
"Expanding Ryan's World in new and immersive ways is crucial to pocket.watch and the Ryan's World brand in fulfilling our mission to bring kids more of what they love," said Kerry Tucker, Chief Marketing and Franchise Officer, pocket.watch. "Ryan, like so many kids his age, loves gaming and we're proud to build on his authentic interests as we empower kids to take playtime into their own hands."
In the multiplayer arena game, kids enter Ryan's World to play as Ryan and his hero friends to recover stolen party gifts taken by evil mastermind Packrat. Players rescue presents, avoid traps and robots, and can play team games where they'll compete to collect more toys than the opposing team. You can see more on the "Super Spy Ryan" Amazon page which features the game's trailer, links to download the app and exclusive "Super Spy Ryan" toys, apparel and accessories.
"Lots of magic and mischief come together when we partner with our friends at Sunlight Entertainment, pocket.watch and Amber Studio, as is apparent with all of the fun found in the new Super Spy Ryan game," said Natasha Lipovac, Global Head of Amazon Kids+ Content. "At Amazon Kids+ we're focused on making high quality, fun content with characters kids love and are especially excited to deliver it as a game. We hope existing and new fans of Super Spy Ryan will enjoy this game as much as we had bringing it to life."
This release is the newest offering in a suite of already successful games inspired by Ryan's World, including "Ryan's Rescue Squad" console game released in March, the "Ryan's World" official game on Roblox, and the "Tag with Ryan" mobile game which has more than 25 million downloads.
