Crayola Treasure Adventure is a video game based on the Crayola company line of crayons developed by DC Studios and published by Crave Entertainment in North America and Ignition Entertainment in PAL regions for the Nintendo DS. The player is a person lost on an island searching for treasure, with only a map and crayons.[1]
The game plays as a virtual colouring book. The game contains 100 colouring book pages and 120 of Crayola's signature shades, which match up to their real-life equivalents. Different settings let the player apply colour either in the patchy style of a real crayon, or in a more smooth texture.[2] The title has unlockable areas and pictures.
