It’s Imagine Month for gameco giant Ubisoft, which is kicking off October with a month-long online sweepstakes for its girl-targeted Imagine game series.

For the four weeks in October, a new Imagine title for the Nintendo DS and DSi will be available at retail stores, beginning with Imagine Salon Stylist on October 1, followed by Imagine Zoo Keeper (October 6), Imagine Fashion Designer (October 20) and Imagine Artist (October 27).

The sweepstakes have already begun and will run through October 25. Winners will be chosen at random in four different drawings, every Monday in October, for the weekly grand prize of a US$25,000 529 Educational Fund to go toward the school or college of their choice after graduating high school.

In addition, second and third place prizes will be granted each week, including five Imagine Nintendo DSi Packs (DSi handheld and four Imagine titles), and 50 third-place prizes of one pink Imagine t-shirt.

The Imagine series has sold more than 14 million units worldwide, targeting girls six to 14. For more info, check out www.imaginetown.com/sweepstakes.
