12/21/2012 - Snowboard Hero free on iOSLike an Avalanche: Snowboard Hero for iOS is now available for Free!
Hamburg, December 21st, 2012 – Right in time for the winter season, Fishlabs Entertainment has reduced
the price of its two-time IMGA winner Snowboard Hero™ to US-$ 0.00. And we are not talking about a slimmed-down Lite-Version
here, but rather can the complete winter sports spectacle for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch now be downloaded on the App Store
at zero cost.
In the course of the extensive career mode, the players have to prove his snowboarding skills in
a total of 66 different challenges on eight unique tracks. In the role of one of six different characters with individual
boards, outfits, skills and special moves, they will have to make use of the intuitive touch and tilt controls of their iPhone,
iPad or iPod touch in order to race down the steepest slopes and sharpest curves with breakneck speed. The faster they go
and the more spectacular their stunts are, the more bonus points they will collect. And at the end of the race, these bonus
points can be used to purchase better boards and power-ups as well as new tricks. In record chaser mode, on the other hand,
speed is the key criterion when players from all over the world compete with each other for the top ranks in the online leaderboards
of the Game Center.
Thanks to Snowboard Hero’s full support for Apple TV Airplay, the pursuit for the next
track record can also be enjoyed on the big screen with 720p via Wi-Fi or in Full HD via HDMI. Furthermore, the free version
of Fishlabs’ fun sports racer does also feature full iPhone 5 optimization and a new app icon. In addition, a trailer

12/18/2012 - Wombi Airplane now on App StoreKids’ creativity can “fly” with new Wombi Airplane game
Wombi Airplane, to be released
this December 18 for iPod, iPad, and iPhone, was developed for kids ages 4 and up to make learning fun. The game gets children
thinking about the way airplanes work by letting them assemble their very own. Players are placed in a workshop-like setting
with a large selection of plane parts to choose from. Piece by piece, they fasten the propeller, the wings, and so on. With
the game’s variety of plane parts and designs, there is a lot of room for creativity.
Next, players take
their newly built aircraft for an adventure. They take off into a beautiful, illustrated landscape with cartoonish graphics
that pop from the screen. To control the game, players must tap the screen and adjust the plane’s height at the right
time, or else it will dip too low. The challenge is to keep a watchful eye out for birds, trees, mountains, and an evil enemy
who is out to sabotage them. The goal is to collect delivery boxes, which are strung up on colorful helium balloons. When
the player lands, the boxes can be opened to discover what treasures have been scored – jewels and more.
“Kids
will like this game because it allows them to express themselves creatively, and it puts them in the pilot seat. It also slips
that educational aspect in there without them really noticing” says game creator Markus Wedenborn.
There
are multiple levels to this game to keep it interesting and to continuously challenge the players. Adventurous music and fun
animations create a captivating, lively atmosphere. The plane’s pilot is a friendly, sporty raccoon, but once those
wind goggles are on, this bushy-tailed creature is all about focus. Kids are sure to find a loveable character within the
detailed illustrations.
Price: $1.99
