The show lends itself beautifully to being extended into an exciting game. The idea is to offer an interesting avenue for followers of the show to step into the shoes of our superhero and experience his world. So, we hope that they not only watch the show on air but enjoy it as a game too."

With a blend of vibrant graphics that recreate the ethereal world of the show on mobile phones, multiple levels of difficulty and variation, the game is aimed at providing young teenagers an engrossing experience. It is a multi-level game, where every level has a new enemy from the show, like Kumbha, Vishkanya and Challa amongst others. Each demon is unique in his evil powers and more formidable than the last. Each level is only unlocked once the villain is defeated by the user.
