Heidi: Alpine Adventure Now Available as a Free App

Dublin, Ireland, November 05, 2015 --(PR.com)-- After enjoying enormous success in Germany, where parents and critics alike were quick to praise the child-friendly interface, challenging yet achievable nature of the games and the valuable lessons concerning family and friendship contained within the games, the app has been given an update. It is also now available in the British, Spanish, French and Belgian iTunes and Google Play Stores for free.

Heidi: Alpine Adventure is based on the new GCI TV series inspired by Johanna Spyri’s world-famous story of Heidi, the Swiss orphan girl who moves to the Alps to live with her grandfather in the mountains.

Together with Heidi and her best friend, Peter, children can discover the magical world around them. The app has 19 mini-games, all of which feature progressive difficulty levels and are designed to develop core skills such as counting, memory and colours as well as creativity through music and cooking meals.

As well as being free to play, the new version of the app features a number of changes following feedback from parents. The most significant changes are:

An improved tutorial to help guide users
Additional graphics which allow the game to be played without sound
Improved effects to enhance the gaming experience
Enhanced visual rewards after the successful completion of a game
Minor alterations to a number of the games to rework and improve them
Minor bug fixes

A spokesman for Studio 100 Media said: "With this update we have listened and reacted to feedback from our users and have developed the game to further ensure a high quality user experience.

"We hope that, with the free version of the app, they will be able to try out and enjoy the content before deciding whether or not to purchase it."
