Firework Fever – iphone & ipad App

 

iphone and ipad app

 

For the first time Black Cat and Standard Fireworks are launching their own firework App, for the iPhone and the iPad. Firework Fever is a mixture between story game play and quick play games and will be available from late October.

Firework Fever allows the player to guide Pyro Pete – our friendly pyro-technician, through town to get to his firework display. Pyro Pete is already running late from sleeping in, and to make matters worse he has to pick up his fireworks on the way.

Dodge oil spills, cars and even those pesky grannies but don’t miss opportunities to keep Pyro Pete’s energy levels up.

Play quick play games throughout to collect Pyro Petes fireworks for the show, catch as many falling fireworks as you can in order to make the show a hit. Dash around the super markets to collect the sparklers – be careful of the spillages down the aisles you don’t want your trolley to spin out of control. Then light the fireworks in the right order to make sure they fit the choreography planned.

Collect points throughout the game to have a brilliant firework display, keep the crowd happy and enter the top scores on the scoreboard.

This fantastic firework app will be launching late October, so keep an eye out for it featuring in the app store. The game will be free to download- so don’t miss out.
