Developed by award-winning Mimimi Productions and produced by Unity Games, The Last Tinker: City Of Colors immerses gamers in a colorful adventure story full of diverse characters and distinct landscapes. Brought to PlayStation®4 by LOOT, The Last Tinker: City of Colors is reminiscent of the enduring, classic character driven, 3D platformers when story and emotion are in locked step with gameplay. The Last Tinker: City of Colors, rated E for everyone, will be available for play at the PlayStation® booth in the West Hall (Booth 4522 & 4144) at E3, June 10-12, 2014 in Los Angeles, CA.

"The Last Tinker: City of Colors is a return to when gaming wasn't just about mashing buttons and manipulating joysticks, but when games had style; distinctly themed challenges wrapped in engaging stories and visuals, all born out of a unique creative vision." said David Sterling, Managing Director, LOOT Entertainment. "We're incredibly excited to bring this stylistic adventure to the PlayStation®4 community."
Guiding gamers through the City of Colors is Koru, a boyish adventurer living in the slums of Colortown, who must harness the power of color to save his world from the destructive Bleakness. Players join forces with Koru to combat the ongoing threat as they strive to restore the city's vitality and vibrancy. The thrilling gameplay, fast-paced combat, puzzles, and hidden secrets offer a gaming experience that intrigues and captivates audiences of all ages.
"With the guidance of LOOT Entertainment, we have proudly realized our dream of bringing Koru and his colorific world to over 7 million PlayStation®4 gamers in North America and Europe." said Darren Williams, of Unity Games. "We look forward to welcoming PlayStation gamers to our amazing City Of Colors fan base."
