14 DAY TRIAL // Angry Birds maker Rovio Entertainment Ltd. in cooperation with DreamWorks Animation has released The Croods, a free game for iPhone and iPad based on the upcoming motion picture.
Players must trap and tame 10 pre-historic creatures, including the Girelephant and the Molarbear, create inventions with Grug to open and explore new areas, and decorate their world with caveman accessories.
The list of features also says, “Meet your favorite characters from the feature animation film from DreamWorks Animation!”
How can you already have a favorite character from The Croods? The film isn’t even out yet.
The game is free to play but it does come with some paid goods inside, so be careful with that in-app purchases toggle when you give your iPad to the kids.
Also, Rovio asks customers to note that the game requires a network connection to work. It’s also chock-full of third-party ads. Yep, not exactly an ideal gaming experience. But we’ve come to learn that about Rovio in the past year.
The good thing is that The Croods runs on pretty much all iDevice models. It only requires iOS 4.3.
