SANTA MONICA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Game Factory today announces Di-Gata Defenders for Nintendo DS™, a new title based on the action-packed, fantasy quest animated television series produced by Nelvana and LuxAnimation. The series airs on TELETOON Monday to Friday at 6:30 PM and week-ends at 7:00 PM ET/PT. The game will be based on the first season of the series and is due for release in Q4 2007.

Join the Di-Gata Defenders in their battle against the evil Lord Nazmul and his Order of Infinis. With the help of their powerful Guardians these young heroes fight to control the destiny of four pure stones. These stones are the last line of protection between the good people of Rados and Lord Nazmul who wants to rule them. By getting their hands on the Powerful stones, Lord Nazmul and the Order of Infinis will be able to release the trapped evil Megalith and build a machine to permanently destroy the precious pure stones! Not only will they then rule Rados, but they will also gain eternal life!

It is up to you to help the Di-Gata Defenders and prevent this evil plan being executed by creating your own hero and exploring the exciting world of Rados.

Developed by Mistic Software in Montreal, Di-Gata Defenders will take players on a fantasy quest that will challenge their skills, speed and strategic abilities. Take part in this action-packed strategy adventure and get ready to cast the power!
