Ape Entertainment Brings Aquatic Action to App Store with Squids Comic App

cvrApe Entertainment, in association with independent game developer The Game Bakers, has unleashed a wave of adventure onto the App Store—the Squids Comic App for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. Exploring the backstory of the chart-topping game series, “Squids,” the comic app is priced at $.99, which includes the first issue and, for a limited time, the second issue at no additional cost.

Additionally, Squids and Squids Wild West get free updates on the App Store with new content and in particular The Ballad of Clint and Sammo, a mini-comic book in two parts that reveals how the mighty Sammo first crossed path with the most wanted Squids Clint.

As for the comic app, Issue No. 1, entitled Squids: To The Edge of The Sea, dives into the deepest part of the story when our heroes Steev, Clint, and the others investigate the secrets of the missing Winnick to uncover the mystery of the Black Torrent. And what they find kicks off a swashbuckling adventure like none the Seven Kingdoms have ever seen.

But wait, there’s more cephalopod-tastic excitement in Issue No. 2, KA-POW! It’s the continuation to their wall-busting first issue. Did Steev get in over his helmet? Can Clint rally the Squids against their Oozy opponents and save Winnick’s home—and its many secrets—from the grasp of the nefarious Baron? Will anybody be able to catch that book-snatching shrimp? Find out when the action continues in Squids: To The Edge of The Sea #2!

Ape Entertainment to Develop Comic Series Based on Squids Mobile Games

ACoverpe Entertainment and independent video game developer The Game Bakers are announcing a new licensing agreement to create a series of original digital comic books and graphic novels based on The Game Bakers’ chart-topping game series, Squids. Available for iOS, Android, PC, and Mac, the Squids games have been downloaded by more than one million players worldwide.

Squids and its recent sequel, Squids Wild West, are role-playing games with quirky characters, colorful cartoon graphics, and humorous storylines. A mysterious black ooze is encroaching on the Squids’ lush underwater kingdom, prompting a scrappy group of Squid heroes to fight back the only way they know how: by stretching their tentacles to spring into battle. Both Squids games have been praised by fans for their vibrant artwork and lighthearted yet surprisingly epic plotlines—elements that will transition perfectly into Ape’s new comic series, which will explore the backstories of scout Steev, healer Vahine, and the rest of the Squids crew.

Ape Entertainment plans to release the full-color comic book series in print as well as through a standalone Squids Comics app for iPad, iPhone and iPod touch in the coming months.
