In a press release Teemu Huuhtanen, CEO, Next Games had this to say:
Next Games are no Strangers (get it?) to location-based games, as they are the developers of The Walking Dead: Our World.
Our World is a location-based game that features the walkers from the TV show. It's pretty good, and the zombie mechanic is exciting and sometimes scary. If Next Games can bring all its skills to bare it could have a huge hit on its hands.
