WIN A Signed Poster/Digital Copy Of Outright Games’ New Release, ‘The Last Kids On Earth and the Staff Of Doom’!

I’ve been a reader of Max Brallier’s (read our interview with him here) The Last Kids On Earth books series for years now, so when I heard that a video game version was in the works from Outright Games and Stage Clear Studios, I was beyond thrilled. I work in a library, so whenever a young reluctant reader comes in, I always tell them about these funny, high-energy adventures as a video game adventure in book form, and kids just eat them up. So creating an actual video game based on the series is a perfect combination!

And now, we’re announcing a contest for our readers to win one of three video game posters signed by Author Max Brallier or a digital copy of the game itself! Just share this article on any social media platform letting the world know who your favorite Last Kids On Earth character is. Be sure to tag PopHorror when you do so we can acknowledge your share and enter you in the contest. Contest ends July 10, 2021.

THE KID-FRIENDLY, ZOMBIE ACTION VIDEO GAME BASED ON THE NEW YORK TIMES BEST-SELLING BOOKS AND EMMY AWARD-WINNING NETFLIX SERIES ‘THE LAST KIDS ON EARTH’ IS OFFICIALLY LAUNCHED

TEAM UP WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS AND TAKE ON A MULTITUDE OF ZOMBIES AND MASSIVE MONSTERS IN A QUEST TO SAVE THE WORLD!

The zombie apocalypse has arrived, and it’s time to prepare for an epic battle! Outright Games, the leading global publisher of family-friendly interactive entertainment, together with Atomic Cartoons (the Kids and Family Division of Thunderbird Entertainment), and development studio Stage Clear Studios have launched The Last Kids on Earth and The Staff of Doom. The production partnership is managed by Atomic Cartoons’ worldwide agent for merchandise, licensing and video games, Cyber Group Studios.

In The Last Kids on Earth and the Staff of Doom, fans can immerse themselves in an all-new story, exploring the massive town of Wakefield and taking on hordes of zombies. Play as the series’ legendary heroes Jack, Quint, June and Dirk as they search for the missing pieces of the ultra-powerful Staff of Doom and try to overcome Malondre, the Queen of the Slime Monsters, as she seeks to summon Rezzoch, the Ancient Destructor of Worlds. Players will be able to jump into 1-4 player offline couch co-op mode, which will soon be followed by a patch that will add online multiplayer functionality later this year.

Matthew Berkowitz, Chief Creative Officer, Atomic Cartoons and Thunderbird Entertainment:

“The launch of The Last Kids on Earth and the Staff of Doom marks the start of yet another exciting adventure for the Last Kids universe. Fans will get the chance to jump into the world feet first and immerse themselves in an entirely original storyline crafted top-to-bottom for the video gaming experience. This action-packed adventure is a unique piece of the cannon, yet it still connects back seamlessly to the rest of the universe we all know and love. More than that, it’s a fun, all-ages joyride that brings kids and families together as they play as Jack, June, Quint, and Dirk and battle against a brand new villain in Malondre, the Queen of the Slime Monsters!

“We’re so thrilled with our partnership with Outright Games and Stage Clear Studios and how authentically Max’s Last Kids universe is portrayed – from the town of Wakefield to the main characters, monsters, zombies, and more. We hope fans of the show and books will enjoy it as much as we all loved creating it, and we can’t wait for them to experience it for themselves!”

Dominique Bourse, COO, and Thierry Braille, Vice President, Interactive and Video Game Division of Cyber Group Studios:

“We are delighted that the collaboration with Atomic Cartoons and Outright Games are resulting in a very compelling game based on The Last Kids on Earth. The combination of this wonderful IP and the great game developed by Outright Games is delivering an amazing video game that will contribute to expanding The Last Kids on Earth universe.”

Terry Malham, CEO of Outright Games:

”It’s been an incredibly exciting adventure for us becoming a part of The Last Kids on Earth universe. We’ve had the best time working with author Max Brallier and Atomic Cartoons on transporting the amazing characters from the books and TV into an action-packed zombie adventure that’s fun for all the family. We hope players will enjoy it as much as we do.”

The brand-new game is based on The Last Kids on Earth award-winning animated series from Atomic Cartoons and the books from Penguin Random House, which has sold more than seven million copies in print around the world, in addition to being named to numerous best-selling book lists such as The New York Times, USA Today, and The Wall Street Journal. The first full-color graphic novel, Thrilling Tales from the Treehouse, published this past April and the seventh installment in the 6 series, The Last Kids On Earth and the Doomsday Race, publishes September 14, 2021.
