It was a memorable scenario for Gameloft, a leading international publisher and developer of mobile games you can download. Though many people are not aware, and half don’t care much, Gameloft enjoyed, or rather ’suffered’ a great week.

So what exactly was the good news? Pocket Gamer Awards, an Oscar award for related game developers, awarded Best Publisher for iPhone, Best Action/Arcade Game (iPhone) for N.O.V.A. Near Orbit Vanguard Alliance, and Best Action/Arcade Game (Mobile) for Zombie Infection at the Pocket Gamer Awards 2010, to Gameloft.

It comes as a great surprise to Gameloft themselves, and in the age of iPhone entertainment, it’s rather a great news to have swept the main awards.

“We’re honored to receive this distinction from Pocket Gamer. Our success can be attributed to our development teams’ constant concern for quality on both rich and traditional mobile gaming platforms, and to our desire to offer games that are both spectacular and popular”, said Julien Fournials, senior vice-president of Production at Gameloft, on their website.

Gameloft succeeds mainly with its international appeal. With strong partnerships with the popular brands like UNO™, Ferrari, Shrek, CSI, Spider-Man and Sonic, allows Gameloft to publish and develop games that people like to play, and not just download.

They will individually help you to find out your past in the form of ’soul’ fragments. You will have to gather them and ‘read’ what they tell you.

Apart from daily missions, you may face several other rival ninjas. who still have no idea of the existence of the Asuka ninja. These include the Tarabas, Kenobi and the Mosus, each led by a terrific leader. You may get to face these leaders as a reward.

Finally, the game has many outcomes. Based on your successful or failed missions, you will have to face the trust of the warring lords.
