Get ready to craft up a storm this fall.

Today, Majesco announced the latest title in the "Mama" series on DS, Crafting Mama. The game, which has players creating a wide variety of crafts using stylus controls, will be available in fall 2010.

The game boasts 40 unique crafts, ranging from patchwork quilts and birdhouses to earrings and flower decoration and everything in between. Crafting Mama will also feature multiplayer support, though it is unspecified whether multiple copies of the game will be required. The game will allow you to use your crafts to customize Mama's appearance, such as sewing a new apron or letting her fly a handmade paper airplane.

This is the second spinoff of the Cooking Mama franchise, after Gardening Mama, which was released last year.

Newest Extension of the Best-Selling Mama Brand is Due Out This Fall

EDISON, N.J, March 11, 2010 - The extent of Mama's talents are limitless! She can hold her own in the kitchen and garden next to the world's best, but now Mama is poised to dominate arts & crafts too as Majesco Entertainment Company (NASDAQ: COOL), an innovative provider of video games for the mass market, announces Crafting Mama exclusively for Nintendo DS. Developed by Cooking Mama Limited, this all-new crafting game lets players create their own unique crafts across a wide range of different projects.

"Crafting is a natural extension of our most successful franchise," said Jesse Sutton, Chief Executive Officer, Majesco Entertainment. "Much like last spring's Gardening Mama, Crafting Mama combines the award-winning Mama formula of addictive stylus-based activities with a popular pastime that has been underserved in videogames. We're looking forward to sharing Mama's newest hobby with her vast and diverse group of fans this holiday season."

In Crafting Mama, players will create 40 different projects across a wide range of different crafts: make patchwork quilts, earrings, candles, xylophones, kaleidoscopes, birdhouses, flower decorations and even mini-Mama dolls! Using the stylus as a universal crafting tool, crafters will sew, mold, glue, cut and paint under Mama's masterful direction. Best of all, players can use each of their creations within the game itself: dress Mama up in a new apron you've sewn or even fly a freshly folded paper airplane. In addition, new materials, colors and patterns are available to customize each project, and multiplayer support lets players create with a friend. Crafting Mama is guaranteed to turn Mama fans into crafty creators in no time!

Crafting Mama for Nintendo DS is expected to release this fall. For additional information about Majesco's exciting line of products, please visithttp://www.majescoentertainment.com/.
