505 Games announced today that Hop: The Movie Game is available now exclusively on Nintendo DS in stores everywhere for just $29.99 USD. Hop: The Movie Game is a top-down action adventure game that brings many of the locations and characters from the movie to life in an interactive and entertaining setting that’s perfect for gamers of all ages! The game is based on Universal Pictures and Illumination Entertainment’s upcoming live action/CG animated comedy Hop, which opens in theaters on April 1, 2011.
“Hop: The Movie Game is the ideal basket-stuffer for anyone on your Easter list, and with dozens of missions, varied gameplay and colorful graphics, will last much longer than a chocolate bunny,” said Ian Howe, president of 505 Games. “It features the same hilarious comedic sensibilities of the film, and since it’s on the Nintendo DS, it’s the perfect game for the little ones to play over spring break and on any Easter road trips.”
Play as Fred as you help the Easter Bunny’s teenage son, E.B., save Easter from a fluffy coup d’etat led by Carlos and his fellow chick workers! Hop your way through the Easter Bunny’s top-secret candy factory on Easter Island, solve puzzles and sugar shock your enemies as you turn them into delicious chocolate treats. Play through various mini-games and game modes, including helping E.B. realize his dream of becoming a famous rock-’n’-roll drummer!
Hop: The Movie Game Features Include:
- Wacky weapons, including chocolate super soakers, gumball shooters and cotton candy cannons;
- Play through actual locations from the film, including Hollywood and Easter Island;
- Tons of mini-games, including Whack-a-Bunny, Bowling for Candy and the epic Easter Egg Hunt.
