Farm Frenzy 2

iPhone version launched at $2.99.

Alexandria, VA – Before there was Farmville, Farm Town, Barn Buddy, Ranch Rush or any of the other clones that came after it, software developers from Alawar Melesta in 2006 came up with a unique game play genre where players could help a lonely farmer turn a run-down farmstead into a rich, flourishing agricultural complex.. Farm Frenzy and the entire farm game boom was born. Three years later the Farm Frenzy franchise continues its steady growth by expanding its popular Farm Frenzy 2 title to the iPhone, iPad and Macintosh platforms.

“The Mac devices have never been the first choice for hardcore gamers”, said Kirill Plotnikov, VP of Publishing for Alawar Entertainment, “but casual games are different. Farm Frenzy 2 has been a huge success for the PC gaming enthusiast and we get requests almost daily to bring the game to other platforms.”

The Farm Frenzy series has spawned three primary titles (Farm Frenzy 1-3) and three add-on games including Farm Frenzy 2 : Pizza Party, Farm Frenzy 3: American Pie and Farm Frenzy 3: Ice Age. This is also the second of the series to be ported to the iPhone platform, with the first . Farm Frenzy occupying the top sales spots in several markets; in the U.K., it was among the top three best-selling applications, and it came in first in several markets in Eastern Europe and Asia. On the U.S. App Store, Farm Frenzy became one of the top 20 most popular applications overall.

Farm Frenzy 2 expands on the series with:

• Five kinds of store products

• Four varieties of animals

• Four types of marauding bears

• 12 structures with three types of upgrades

• 16 types of products for manufacturing

• 17 hilarious gags

• 19 trophies

In 2009, Farm Frenzy 2 received the prestigious iParenting Media Award, which recognized the title as the best computer game for families and children.

Farm Frenzy 2 is available for the iPhone or iPod touch for $2.99 and can be found listed in the iTunes app store under Arcade and Simulation games. The app is rated 4+ and is compatible with OS version 3.0 and higher.
