Amazon announced today that it has created its own game studio, with a first game already developed and ready to be launched on Facebook.
The title, "Living Classics," lets gamers move through scenes from classics like "Alice in Wonderland" and "The Wizard of Oz" while searching for defined items. The game is free to play but "cash" credits that help you beat the game cost $19.99 for 120 units.
Surprisingly, there does not seem to be any connection/enticement in the game to the actual Amazon.com site, or any subsidiaries.
