Finger Frenzy
Speed typing game now available for BlackBerries.
London, January 29th, 2009 – Leading online and mobile gaming company Zattikka wants you to put your fastest fingers first for two exciting new versions of its phenomenally popular speed-typing game, Finger Frenzy World.
Having already taken the casual gaming world by storm both online and on iPhone, Finger Frenzy World’s addictive, keyboard hammering, gameplay is now available on Blackberry for the first time ever. Complete with all the online high-score features of the PC and iPhone versions, plus full Twitter support for bragging rights, Blackberry users across the globe can now compete in the lightning fast world of extreme, alphabet typing face-offs.
And there’s even more fast thumb action to be had with Finger Frenzy Free on iPhone and iPod touch, a unique and completely free version of Finger Frenzy World that lets you practice your speed typing technique offline in preparation for all the competitive online options featured in the full iPhone product.
As part of Finger Frenzy World’s continued rise to fame as the world’s number one speed-based typing game, Zattikka’s crack team of typing tutors hit London’s trendy Vibe Bar this month to put some of the country’s brightest young minds – and thumbs – to the test in a range of fiendish alphabet strumming challenges. Competition was heated and fingers were stretched to breaking point as participants clocked impressive times on both iPod and Blackberry versions, with everybody keen to let all and sundry know about their achievements via the unique Twitter and Facebook support options. Full videos of the event can be viewed at www.youtube.com/zattikka.
