Jumble Jungle 1.0 for iOS Offers Hours of Entertainment and Education - Published on 07/13/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Bippin Studios introduces Jumble Jungle 1.0 for iOS. This fun and educational new app for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch invites children to explore the animal kingdom by matching panels. To play, children swipe away various panels to find ones that match and depict a fun and friendly animal. The app features delightful illustrations and great sound effects, and is an ideal way for parents and educators to help children build their vocabulary, and improve motor skills and coordination.

Cupertino, California - Children who want to enjoy endless hours of fun, and parents who want to give their kids a head-start in school and life, can find what they're looking for in the new flash card and matching app Jumble Jungle 1.0 for iOS.

Designed by Bippin Studios, Jumble Jungle invites children to easily swipe away various panels to find ones that match and depict a fun and friendly animal, such as a koala bear, elephant, zebra, giraffe, lion, hippopotamus, and others. The app's simple touch controls and ultra-clean interface are especially made for children.

Once found, the animal's delightfully-illustrated face springs to life, accompanied by an audio callout of its name, and great sound effects that match its natural sound - such as a roar, a croak, a bellow and so on. Children can then touch the animal's face to watch it wiggle and move in wonderful ways.
Plus, for an added challenge, children can try the app's Speed Play mode and see how many animals they can find in two minutes.

"My 2-year old daughter is obsessed with naming animals and making animal sounds, and that's why we created Jumble Jungle," commented Richard Barrett, co-founder of Bippin Studios. "And while the app is designed to provide children with hours and hours of fun, it's also designed for learning and development, particularly around building vocabulary, and improving coordination and motor skills. Those are key areas that can give children a head start in school and, ultimately, in life."

Jumble Jungle, the fun and educational new animal-themed flash card and matching app for children, is available now in the iTunes App Store.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPod touch 3G, iPod touch 4G and iPad
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* Universal app optimized for display on all iOS devices
* 14.4 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Jumble Jungle 1.0 is only $0.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category.

One of their first apps, Ravebox, is designed for 'old skool ravers" who want to re-live their memories of raving in the early 90s.
