I told you that Rovio bought the game Casey's Contraptions and intends to turn it into the next Angry Birds, after a long process of restoring it. Those from Rovio is intending to launch the game in the next two months, the CEO of the company confirming this in a morning show produced by a Finnish television. It is clear that Rovio saw a huge potential in this little game and I suppose they can apply the "Angry Birds success recipe" for it, and next year at this time we will all talk about how we can build various things in Amazin Alex.
Company CEO Mikael Hed told Yle's breakfast television on Friday that the new game will be called Amazing Alex and will be released in two months' time. The game is based on intellectual property Rovio purchased from the Casey's Contraptions game. Hed says Rovio's latest game has an educational element and centers on main character Alex, a curious young boy who loves to build things.
To be honest, I'm a fan of games of this kind and if Rovio will offer it at a price of €0.79, then it will definitely be successful and could surpass Angry Birds in terms of popularity. Until then, I think we'll see some presentation teasers of the game and based on them we'll get a better idea about what we'll have available in the App Store.
