What do you get when you cross a family-friendly videogames platform and the opportunity to make a quick buck with a Christmas software release? Aquatic Tales we’re guessing, which is paddling its way onto the Nintendo Wii and Nintendo DS.

Aquatic Tales takes players on an adventure in which they must guide a family of fish as they swim to safety, away from their endangered habitat. The Arawak aquatic tribe, who have resided in the rivers of North America for millions of years, are under threat by another species polluting their home. At the brink of extinction, they must travel through 25 levels of gameplay to their new resting place in the Amazon river.

In what sounds very much like a family-friendly title, the Wii Remote and/or Nintendo DS’ stylus will be used to guide the Arawak, while an original musical score, developer GameInvest hopes, will have families singing along the whole way through.

“Saving the environment is an important issue that we wanted to bring to audiences through a fun and engaging game,” said GAMEINVEST founder and CEO Paulo Gomes. “Aquatic Tales includes important messages about preserving our oceans within an immersive and entertaining gaming experience.”

Aquatic Tales will arrive on the Nintendo Wii and Nintendo DS this holiday season.
