Disney Interactive Studios� New App Rocks! Rock & Roll Legend Animal of the Muppets Beats the Band�And the Drum
Challenge Animal’s Mad Drumming Skills or Jam Along to iTunes Music Library Songs with One of the World’s Greatest Drummers, Animal
(December 16, 2009) Disney Interactive Studios announced today the latest (and loudest) addition to its slate of Apps, The Muppets Animal Drummer. Available now on the App Store for $1.99, The Muppets Animal Drummer puts iPhone and iPod touch users in the drummer’s seat for a game that will test the skills of every wannabe rock drummer out there. Watch and listen to Animal play, then match Animal’s beat and timing to score points and unlock new songs. (Note: Rock & Roll Groupies not included with this app.)
The Muppets Animal Drummer app also features a Free Play Mode where users can rock out with Animal to original music or songs imported from your iTunes music library (3.0 OS or higher required). Users can also score points and create combos to charge their Rock Meter and power their stage presence. You can even use the App to create original music, then hit the record feature and watch Animal replay your jam session.
“We’re excited to bring Animal and The Muppets to a broad mobile audience, and what better way to do that than an innovative, music-based App that taps into Animal’s wild personality and the unique functionality of the iPhone and iPod touch,” stated Stephen Saiz, director of marketing, Disney Interactive Studios.
Animal, who usually lets his drums do his talking, was typically pithy about this new app: “Louder! Faster! Drum! Drum! Drum!” “Precisely,” agreed Disney’s Stephen Saiz.
