Jump Games teamed-up with Playtone to launch the official mobile application for Tom Hanks’ multi-dimensional animated series, Electric City. Available for iOS and Android devices, the application comes with all available episodes from the sci-fi adventure series, an original RPG, digital comic books that talk about the founding of Electric City, behind-the-scenes sneak peeks and other exclusive content. Electric City, for those of you who don’t know, is a 90-minute series debuting on Yahoo! Screen today.
It depicts a dystopia world, with the Electric City standing as a symbol of peace and security. However, under the veneer of order lies a world full of secrets and violence. Secret police, back-alley dealings, daring chases and murder all find a home in the City, indirectly touching upon relevant global issues and themes like energy consumption, freedom of information, crime and punishment, and more.
As for that RPG game, you will step into the role of a key character from the series (Frank Deetleman) as he attempts to undermine the control of the Electric City and restore freedom to its people. Expect high-end graphics, fast-paced action and a rich storyline…

Dusan Belic
Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
