Our interactive video game platformer is called
Masterpiece Hero where our hero rescues 13 pieces of famous art stolen by fictional villain Timmy The Terrible
. Based on the real life organization, Art Recovery International, version 4.0 showcases 13 masterpieces that have been stolen, eleven which are still missing! We hope that by teaching kids about art in a super engaging way, we are bringing awareness to the issue of art theft while teaching kids about important artists and artistic styles. And who know, maybe one day they will find them and get the reward!
