Get Ug: A Prehistoric Adventure For Free (We've Got Promo Codes)
June 29, 2011
Ice Cream Fine Storybooks and AppAdvice are sponsoring a promotion to celebrate the release of Ug: A Prehistoric Adventure, the Chicago-based company's first interactive book for the iPhone/iPod touch and iPad.
Ug tells a Stone Age adventure using the marvels of the Information Age, including animations, effects, and narration. The end result is a new, but classic story about recognizing what's most important in life and finding your way home.
Despite pleadings from his mother and father, Ug doesn’t want to go to school. Instead, he decides to leave home to spend his life with his animal friends. However, once alone and lost in the vast wilderness, Ug realizes he must swallow his pride and somehow find his way back home to the ones he loves.
Created by the brother-sister team of Kate and Patrick Buss, Ug includes a caveman-themed finger painting game, a table of contents accessible from any page in the story, and the customary reading modes (with narration, without narration, or auto-play).
Take a look:
This is a fantastic book and comes highly recommended preschool age children. Not only is the story itself great and tells an important story, but the finger painting section will keep kids entertained long after that story ends. Just last week, AppAdvice called Ug once of "The Best iPad Apps Of The Week."
Both Ug: A Prehistoric Adventure (for iPad) and Ug: A Prehistoric Adventure - Mobile (for iPhone/iPod touch) are available in the App Store now for $.99 each. However, we have a few promo codes so you can get the app for free. To do so, please let us know by using the comments below and indicate the version you'd like, iPhone or iPad.
