REDWOOD CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--EA Mobile™, a division of Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ:ERTS) and the world’s leading mobile games publisher and Firemint™, the creator of worldwide hits Flight Control™ and Real Racing™, today announced their latest title, SPY mouse™, is now available on the App StoreSM. Two years in the making and the first Firemint game to be published by EA Mobile, SPY mouse for iPhone® and iPod touch® builds on the intuitive line-drawing mechanics pioneered by Flight Control and follows the increasingly outlandish adventures of Agent Squeak™, a wily yet charismatic mouse convinced of his secret agent credentials.
Players must guide Agent Squeak through a variety of remarkable locations from quiet suburbia to haunted neighborhoods using power-ups, zany gadgets and stealth to complete his dairy-driven objectives. Cunning opponents, from domesticated tabbies to phantasmal felines, will stop at nothing to keep Squeak away from his precious, delicious cheese.
“SPY mouse is Firemint’s best game yet,” said Rob Murray, studio director for Firemint. “We’ve spent two years polishing and perfecting the game as we wanted to get it just right, which we feel that we have. If you want to experience firsthand just how compelling iOS gaming can be, play SPY mouse.”
Those brave enough to aid Agent Squeak will have to sneak, scamper and snack their way through 72 deviously challenging levels and outwit diabolical henchcats unique to each of the game’s six worlds. Gadgets such as the Wind-Up Mouse and the speed-boosting Chilli keep the playing field even. If players get into too much trouble, Kiska the Cat is on hand to get them back on track, earning achievements and unlocking secret levels.
The SPY mouse app is available from the App Store on iPhone and iPod touch, or at www.itunes.com/appstore/. For more information on SPY mouse and Firemint, please visit www.firemint.com/spymouse. Press assets can be found on http://info.ea.com.
