<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-gv5gjBneyRU/VwLf4Wz24PI/AAAAAAAAGa4/eD09PUxfcA05wIgJkmKDKCYs-zRgF1Kzw/s1600/KOPLAYER_free_install_for_windows.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="210" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-gv5gjBneyRU/VwLf4Wz24PI/AAAAAAAAGa4/eD09PUxfcA05wIgJkmKDKCYs-zRgF1Kzw/s400/KOPLAYER_free_install_for_windows.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<a href="http://www.koplayer.com/" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">KOPLAYER</a><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> is a Windows Android emulator that lets you perform one or more virtual Android instances on your Windows 7/8/10 PC-bridging the expanse (or filling the void) between relatively scarce Windows Mobile games, Windows PC games, and Android games.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">KOPLAYER makes it easy to enjoy the larger screen and added convenience of playing some of your preferred Android games on your Windows PC, whether it's a little Angry Birds side action to distract you from work, catching up on your favorite strategy game, or playing multiple games simultaneously if you're a gaming multi-tasker.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Installing KOPLAYER is as easy as running a simple Wizard, and KOPLAYER emulation works flawlessly via mouse right out of the gate. Opening a new KOPLAYER instance starts a basic tutorial and presents an uncluttered Android screen with a Google Play Store link. Just connect a GMAIL account, open the Play Store, and then install your favorite games.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">KOPLAYER also includes KOPLAYER Multi-Manager, which lets you run multiple, simultaneous virtual Android instances-which you can name and even quickly clone, so you don't have to re-configure every instance. For example, if you create an instance and have currently installed all your favorite games, you can then clone that instance. You can run as many instances as you have screen space for, and run a different app in each one.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-AXnB6FSUnnE/VwLf_wT-eQI/AAAAAAAAGa8/leRs9spoQ04bpQnH3CBJmMJ1qPBzxfzXQ/s1600/koplayer%2B3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="207" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-AXnB6FSUnnE/VwLf_wT-eQI/AAAAAAAAGa8/leRs9spoQ04bpQnH3CBJmMJ1qPBzxfzXQ/s400/koplayer%2B3.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Thus KOPLAYER can be excellent for keeping up with your favorite 'time-based' F2P games like Clash of Clans, checking in on virtual villagers and their building progress when your mobile device isn't available-or when you just want the benefit of a larger screen.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The KOPLAYER assists 1280x720 resolution and 1024x600 resolution, and it even enables you to set up the amount of video RAM dedicated to the display. You can also customize the resolution manually. There are also convenient buttons for taking screenshots and video of your games in KOPLAYER icon bar, as well as buttons for activating your camera (if your PC has one), configuring/accessing a shared folder, and adjusting your volume. And if you're the sort who wants to play some Angry Birds on the sly at work, there's even a default 'boss key' (CTRL+ALT+W).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For games with touch screen controls, you can activate the 'keyboard' (press F12 or click the icon in the left menu) to assign key commands on-the-fly. Click a location on the screen, and then press a key to assign the keypress to the touch screen control. For example, in Angry Birds Go! You can click the keyboard, then click over the directional arrows to assign the A and D keys to the left/right touchscreen arrows. This does mean that in some games-Angry Birds Go! For example-you must first start the action and then assign the keys because the touchscreen controls don't appear on screen until the action starts. The keyboard control editor isn't the most intuitive element of the KOPLAYER, so you may need to experiment with it a bit to find the optimal keyboard/mouse combination for different games. And a game designed for a touchscreen may still not play as well with emulated keyboard controls.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">That said, the KOPLAYER still operates very well with a variety of games, with real time and turn-based strategy games (i.e. those where a mouse makes a suitable replacement for a finger) being particularly well-suited to it. Angry Birds (and its various incarnations), Clash of Clans (an RTS game), and Clash Royale (a tower defense game) all seemed to work flawlessly, at least within the limited scope of testing performed for this review. Similar games would likely play and perform equally well.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For the true gaming multi-tasker: Using KOPLAYER's Multi-Manager to play multiple games simultaneously.</span><br />

<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-lpaJd-ockao/Vv7bh7Q-8GI/AAAAAAAAGZM/UJ5aMWu3OqYF3VRBzvVnyQLReo8seiCxQ/s1600/Sony-PlayStation-DUALSHOCK-4-Xperia-support.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="312" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-lpaJd-ockao/Vv7bh7Q-8GI/AAAAAAAAGZM/UJ5aMWu3OqYF3VRBzvVnyQLReo8seiCxQ/s400/Sony-PlayStation-DUALSHOCK-4-Xperia-support.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It looks like Sony will follow Nintendo's cue and focus on mobile gaming. The company announced today that it will form a new business unit tasked with bringing PlayStation titles and IP to iOS and Android devices.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">That sounds like fantastic news for gamers, but there's a caveat here, it seems. Forward Works, Sony's mobile gaming arm, is going to focus on users based in Japan and Asia, according to today's announcement. The branch will be formally created on April 1-- not a hoax (we hope) and the same date that Sony Computer Entertainment comes to be Sony Interactive Entertainment-- so we're likely to learn more after then.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Atsushi Morita, SCE's head in Japan and Asia, will lead Forward Works. Other directors of the company include Andrew House, who is Group CEO of SCE.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Nintendo launched its first mobile game this month, Miitomo. The long-awaited title isn't really a mainstream release, though. Rather, it is a social app that lets users create cartoon-like avatars-- very much like the 'Miis' you can create with the Nintendo Wii. That's likely to limit its appeal to hardcore Nintendo fans. Sony, however, has hinted that its mobile titles will be "full-fledged," which makes us optimistic that they will be more universally appealing. Sony's previous effort at tapping smartphones-- PlayStation Mobile-- was tied to its Vita handheld.</span><br />

<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-yFEyailwZ-c/Vv2teNlW-vI/AAAAAAAAGXs/3tYbiMegr8YGXgb9kV2gqQ1UMGttcZKHQ/s1600/google-livestream-android-games.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="201" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-yFEyailwZ-c/Vv2teNlW-vI/AAAAAAAAGXs/3tYbiMegr8YGXgb9kV2gqQ1UMGttcZKHQ/s400/google-livestream-android-games.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It's also giving you a way to try games from ads without downloading them first.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Google is about to introduce some behind-the-scenes frameworks that should make playing and sharing Android games considerably easier. On top of expanding Android game recording to let developers add the characteristic themselves (due in the "coming months"), it's adding a live streaming feature. If you want to share your Alto's Adventure exploits on YouTube as they happen, it'll be an option. Details aren't available as I write this, but it could do a lot to expand the live game streaming community beyond console and PC players.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Also, Google is making use of Android app streaming to swing you in to those games. It's offering a special marketing format, the Search Trial Run Ad, that lets you try Android games in the browser for up to 10 minutes-- you don't have to jump to the Play Store and download the title first. As you 'd guess, you'll get an offer to install the game afterward if you're enamored with the enjoy. While it's a calculated marketing ploy, it could help a lot if you've ever been curious about a game but didn't want to devote to installing the whole thing right away.</span><br />

<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-1PRC_DcfmNw/Ua58Hj2hR8I/AAAAAAAACAw/gs04ixCdbPI/s1600/app-trailers.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-1PRC_DcfmNw/Ua58Hj2hR8I/AAAAAAAACAw/gs04ixCdbPI/s400/app-trailers.jpg" width="266" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I want to share my personal opinion regarding App Trailers. This review will be based on my experience with App Trailers. Month ago I was checking my Gmail like I always do and while I was doing that I saw an ad saying earn <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Money" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank" title="Money">free money</a> or instant gifts by watching video trailers, inviting friends, and much more. I clicked on that ad and it was talking about an app called App Trailers. It read you can cash out instantly to your <a class="zem_slink" href="http://paypal.com/" rel="homepage" target="_blank" title="PayPal">PayPal</a> account after when you have earned 150 points or redeem other instant gifts like Amazon.com, Starbucks.com, <a class="zem_slink" href="http://companies.findthecompany.com/l/3961491/Best-Buy-Co--Inc" rel="fdbcompanies" target="_blank" title="Best Buy">Best Buy</a>, Xbox points etc. I thought to my self, this is cool you earn free money just by watching video trailers, inviting friend, how cool is that. If you have an Apple product like Iphone, <a class="zem_slink" href="http://companies.findthecompany.com/l/8500602/Apple-Inc" rel="fdbcompanies" target="_blank" title="Apple Inc.">Ipad</a>, Ipod or any <a class="zem_slink" href="http://code.google.com/android/" rel="homepage" target="_blank" title="Android">Android device</a> you can download this App Trailers to you device for free. I wanted more information regarding App Trailers before I download it to my device. I watched lot of <a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.youtube.com/" rel="homepage" target="_blank" title="YouTube">YouTube videos</a> and internet reviews on this particular app that I was interested in. After watching much information related to this app finally I download it to my <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_Ericsson_Xperia_neo" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank" title="Sony Ericsson Xperia neo">Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo</a> V. I was much exited I could not believe you earn money watching video trailers? I don’t know how many times in my life I have watched video trailers on television; mobile phones etc. and they never paid me to watch those video trailers. How come this app pays you? I had a question mark on my face.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Anyway when you open this app after download it shows 7 options at the top (Videos, <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uploading_and_downloading" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank" title="Uploading and downloading">Uploaded</a>, Free App, Offers, Redeem, History and Settings). If you click on videos it will show the list of videos you can watch and earn 5 points each for watching videos. You see these videos are mostly game trailers. On daily basis App Trailers will send you free app (Region Specific) to your device that you can download and earn extra points. It also lets you earn more points by inviting friends and if he/she uses your username to download App Trailers then you get 250 points. (You see 150 points = $0.15) You need 150 points minimum to cash out to your PayPal account (Your PayPal account must be verified in order to receive instant money). At the very top right you will see a letter P and that stands for points that you have accumulated. Below that you will see level. Your level increases after you have accumulated good number of points. You can also upload one of your YouTube videos and if somebody watches your video you get points, another good way of increasing YouTube views. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Daily Scratcher</b> – You will see this game under Redeem Tab. Basically App Trailers will send you daily scratcher to earn some more points (Scratch to win). You scratch to see 4 movie trailer icons, if you are lucky you earn extra points otherwise you will have an option to play this game again tomorrow. You can only play this game once a day. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Under Redeem Tab you can redeem points to cash out to your verified PayPal account as stated above you need 150 points minimum to cash out or you can redeem your points to instant gifts cards like Amazon.com, Starbucks.com, Best Buy, Xbox points etc. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>The Fact</b> – I have seen tons of people reviewing about this app on the internet or on YouTube telling if they use their username for referrals purposes you get more than 250 points. Let me tell you that it’s not true; it’s a big lie to get referrals. I have also seen videos on YouTube demonstrating on how to get unlimited points. Do Not Fall under this trap. It’s bogus and you might get banned from App Trailers. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">App Trailers application is easy to use and navigate most of the things are self explanatory once you use the application. They pay instantly and like I said your PayPal account must be verified to receive money. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Though we’re constantly buffeted by stories about new <a class="zem_slink" href="http://code.google.com/android/" rel="homepage" target="_blank" title="Android">Android</a>-powered game consoles and the continued growth of the <a class="zem_slink" href="http://https//play.google.com" rel="homepage" target="_blank" title="Google Play">Google Play Store</a>, the fact still stands: An Android port seems to remain a footnote in development process, an afterthought, a thing that has to be done as opposed to the thing to do. Even today, you’d be hard-pressed to find a game that’s exclusive to the <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank" title="Linux">Linux-based</a> platform, or a developer willing to profess an undying affection for Android. People might make Android games, but they don’t seem like it.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>It’s a jungle out there</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When <a class="zem_slink" href="http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=37.33182,-122.03118&spn=1.0,1.0&q=37.33182,-122.03118%20(Apple%20Inc.)&t=h" rel="geolocation" target="_blank" title="Apple Inc.">Apple</a> launched its <a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.apple.com/iphone/from-the-app-store/" rel="homepage" target="_blank" title="App Store (iOS)">App Store</a> in 2008, it changed the playing field for mobile games and made them more accessible to people who wouldn’t be caught dead buying a dedicated handheld like a <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nintendo_DS" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank" title="Nintendo DS">Nintendo DS</a> or a <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PlayStation_Portable" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank" title="PlayStation Portable">Sony Playstation Portable</a>. Success stories began rolling in. Angry Birds became a global phenomenon, Rovio Games a national hero. Draw Something drew creator <a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.omgpop.com/" rel="homepage" target="_blank" title="Omgpop">OMGpop</a> away from the brink of bankruptcy and into a $180 million buyout offer—all within seven weeks. The message was clear: The right application can do more than pay your bills; it can make you a rock star.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But while Apple might have been the one to get the ball rolling, Google was not far behind. The Google Play Store has matured since Android first launched, and many of the apps found in the App Store can also be found in <a class="zem_slink" href="http://google.com/" rel="homepage" target="_blank" title="Google">Google’s</a> digital store. Android also has a higher market share than <a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.apple.com/ios/" rel="homepage" target="_blank" title="IOS">iOS</a>, making it the most used mobile operating system worldwide. For all intents and purposes, the Google Play Store should be the ideal environment for any developer, a digital gold mine ready for the harvest.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><i>But is it really the Shangri-La that it has been advertised as?</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Chris Pruett certainly thinks so. Chris is a part of Robot Invader, a Silicon Valley-based game development studio with a fondness for 1950s monster movies and cutesy, action-based titles. Both Wind-up Knight and the company’s newest game, Rise of the Blobs, have enjoyed consistently high praise from the press. Pruett says that the revenue garnered from Android users has beaten iOS sales figures by a solid two to one.</span><br />

Whether on your phone, or in the form of <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stuffed_toy" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank" title="Stuffed toy">plush toys</a> and <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Board_game" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank" title="Board game">board games</a>. Heck, they are even on <a class="zem_slink" href="http://facebook.com/" rel="homepage" target="_blank" title="Facebook">Facebook</a>! Never content to hold still, the birds are now marching onward once more with a new <a class="zem_slink" href="http://fastflip.googlelabs.com/mobile" rel="homepage" target="_blank" title="mobile version">mobile version</a> of their popular Facebook game, Angry Birds <a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/just-friends1994" rel="rottentomatoes" target="_blank" title="Just Friends">Friends</a>.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The news of Angry Birds Friends making it over to the mobile world comes on the heels of <a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.rovio.com/" rel="homepage" target="_blank" title="Rovio Entertainment">Rovio</a>’s release of its annual 2012 results, which shows $195 million in profit with more than 45% of that income coming from non-gaming items such as books, toys and tons of other Rovio merchandise.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">On Facebook, Angry Birds Friends has certainly been a part of that success, achieving 60 million installs and 15 million <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monthly_Active_Users" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank" title="Monthly Active Users">monthly active users</a>, so taking that experience and pushing it to an app seems like a no-brainer and is sure to help line Rovio’s pockets with even more dough.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Game developers have incorporated concepts of human space exploration into the new game.

This ongoing collaboration with Rovio and Angry Birds is an exciting way to get people engaged with NASA’s missions of exploration and discovery, and get students energized about future careers in science and technology.”</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">What does it take to make an addictive game? Not much -- just throw in some super simple controls, cute graphics, and basic physics. Rovio Mobile's Angry Birds is one such game that includes all these elements, and today the studio's just released a public Android beta to cater those without an <a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.apple.com/ios" rel="homepage" target="_blank" title="IOS">iOS</a>, <a class="zem_slink" href="http://developer.palm.com/" rel="homepage" target="_blank" title="WebOS">webOS</a> or <a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.maemo.org/" rel="homepage" target="_blank" title="Maemo">Maemo 5</a> device. In case you're not already familiar with the popular title, the backstory is that a gang of hungry <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pig" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank" title="Pig">pigs</a> snatched away some eggs from the birds, forcing the feathered creatures to embark on a rescue mission for the sake of their survival. The gameplay on the Android version is just as simple as before: in each level you use a fixed slingshot to fling the birds -- one at a time -- into the forts, in order to kill all the pigs inside. As a secondary challenge, you must also attempt to get a three-star rating depending on the amount of structural material you destroy, so the key is to perfect your shooting angle.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">At the beginning you're only given one type of <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bird" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank" title="Bird">bird</a> that does nothing more than just headbutting, but throughout the game you'll come across six more birds, each possessing one special power: multiply, explode, accelerate, dropping egg bombs, boomerang, and extra strength. Don't worry, the instructions are pretty clear when you first meet these enhanced kamikaze birds -- most involve just a single tap anywhere to trigger their special abilities mid-flight. Once you get the hang of it, you'll soon be wanting to try out all sorts of trajectories to take vengeance on those cheeky green hogs. Seriously, the pigs really do laugh at you when your birds miss them.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Here's some fresh news from the Rovio stable. The Finnish gaming studio is all set to launch a new game in association with <a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.dreamworksanimation.com/" rel="homepage" target="_blank" title="DreamWorks Animation">DreamWorks Animation</a> called <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Croods" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank" title="The Croods">The Croods</a>, which is expected to reach <a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.apple.com/ios" rel="homepage" target="_blank" title="IOS">iOS</a> and Android on March 14th.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sharing his thoughts on this partnership, Petri Jarvilehto, EVP of Games at Rovio Entertainment said, "DreamWorks Animation's The Croods is filled with wonderful characters and creatures in an incredibly detailed, inventive world - it was just begging for its very own mobile game! It's been an incredible experience having our two teams working closely together on extending the story to mobile platforms."</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Croods is an upcoming 3D animated movie from DreamWorks Animation, SKG Inc set to release on March 22 2013. It narrates the story of the world's first caveman family that sets out on a road trip adventure. The family is said to be moving beyond the <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stone_Age" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank" title="Stone Age">Stone Age</a> era with the use of a new r-evolutionary tool: the IDEA!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The film will star voice overs from actors like Nicolas Cage, <a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.rottentomatoes.com/celebrity/ryan_reynolds" rel="rottentomatoes" target="_blank" title="Ryan Reynolds">Ryan Reynolds</a>, <a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.rottentomatoes.com/celebrity/emma-stone" rel="rottentomatoes" target="_blank" title="Emma Stone">Emma Stone</a>, <a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.rottentomatoes.com/celebrity/catherine_keener" rel="rottentomatoes" target="_blank" title="Catherine Keener">Catherine Keener</a>, <a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.clarkandmichael.com/" rel="homepage" target="_blank" title="Clark Duke">Clark Duke</a>, and <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloris_Leachman" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank" title="Cloris Leachman">Cloris Leachman</a>.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"Rovio set the industry standard in mobile gaming with <a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.rovio.com/index.php?page=angry-birds" rel="homepage" target="_blank" title="Angry Birds">Angry Birds</a>, and we believe their massive community of active users will go wild for The Croods," said DreamWorks Animation's Head of Global Interactive, Chris Hewish. He further added, "We've developed a close and collaborative relationship with Rovio in which our world class filmmakers created an incredible piece of custom animation on the home screen that introduces players to the game's beautifully rich aesthetics."</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">From the images, the game seems to be strategy-based combining elements of Farmville and Pokemon, especially looking at the different creatures.</span><br />
