Hi, my name is Tiina and I wanted to tell you about a game I’ve been working on  with the team here at Nokia.

Ovi Maps Racing, is a location-based game that combines map navigation and racing. Utilizing actual map data by NAVTEQ and the GPS technology of the mobile device, Ovi Maps Racing allows players to create a racing track in their own physical location anywhere in Europe and race for the quickest time around the block.

Ovi Maps Racing is now available for download in Store for free (for a limited time only!) for all Nokia touch screen devices based on Symbian^1, such as the Nokia N97 mini and the Nokia 5800 Navigation Edition.

In addition to creating tracks based on their own location, players can also race in offline mode and customize tracks within the available in-game map data. The game also includes 20 pre-defined tracks with global high scores in well-known European cities – such as Berlin, Amsterdam and London.

Also, a point worth noting is that the International Mobile Gaming Awards (IMGA) has shortlisted Ovi Maps Racing as a nominee in the category of “Excellence in Gameplay”. Winners will be announced at the IMG Awards Ceremony at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain on February 15, 2010.

Ladies and gentlemen, get ready to download the game and start your engines!
