The game, which debuts today,can be found on National Geographic Channel's Stonehenge Decoded Web site: www.natgeotv.com/stonehenge. This is the third game NGC has developed in conjunction with New York-based Arkadium.
"This is a fascinating story that we knew would also extend well beyond a viewer's television set," said Brad Dancer, vice president, research and digital media for NGC, in a statement. "Working with Arkadium we have found another way to transport viewers from their TV sets to an online game composed of interactive puzzles that complement one of the world's great archaeological mysteries."
The interactive exploration developed includes brain teaser puzzles that take place in sections of the Stonehenge site. Similar to deciphering the mysteries of Stonehenge, each completed puzzle helps to bring players closer to understanding the meaning of the monument.
