With exactly 22 days remaining in the release of Pakistan’s first full-length animated film, 3 Bahadur, Waadi Animations launched its official smart phone game at an event held at Kidz Dunya.

The game dubbed as Pakistan’s first thematic smartphone video game is based on a single player that can choose its characters from the brave trio of Amna, Saadi and Kamil.

Comprising five stages, the game is programmed to have characters take on the villains of Roshan Basti and ending at the restoration of peace to the colony. The game is designed to engage the player by being immersive and easy.

Each character is equipped with unique superpowers to be used to combat enemies: Amna as a speedy character who rescues her friends and escapes quickly in times of trouble; Saadi as a ranged character who relies on a variety of modes of attacks and home-made weaponry to defeat foes and Kamil having excellent auditory skills to help him listen to the villains' plans. Their ultimate face-off is to take place with Mangu whose defeat marks the end of the game.

Developed for both Android and iOS, the game was developed by Pi Labs and Artboard, a Cloud Creative firm known for designing apps. The game will be available to all users at Google Play and iTunes App Store for free.
